who we are
The Hillcrest PTO is to support the teachers and children of Hillcrest Elementary by providing supplemental funding that enriches the children’s classrooms, organizing school-wide events and creating opportunities for family involvement within our wonderful school.
Elementary school represents a time of tremendous growth and exciting change for our children. We are fortunate to have dedicated, caring, knowledgeable staff. In addition, family involvement is a fundamental part of what makes the school experience so special. We are all committed to making the kid’s years at Hillcrest Elementary a memorable experience.
There are various opportunities during and after school hours and vital behind-the-scenes tasks that everyone can do to help.
WHAT WE DO
We Create Community – We host events such as Bingo Night, Family Fun Night and the Science Fair to name a few.
We Enhance Learning – Through our fundraising efforts, we can help enhance our children’s learning by supplementing field trip expenses, supporting improvements in books and technology tools and providing our teachers with a classroom materials stipend and more!
