The Hillcrest PTO will have two more meetings this school year. It is not too late to join! There will be several open positions for next school year. Student success is all about the team that surrounds the student, and Hillcrest would not have the success without our PTO. If you cannot join us in person, we always offer a virtual option. We have the meetings interpreted into Spanish as well.

If you have questions please email our PTO President, Jessica Krol: jkrol@emsd37.org

Our students had an absolute blast at our Touch a Tractor Event sponsored by John Deere. Thank you to John Deere who brought two brand new tractors to the Hillcrest Elementary School playground for our students to explore. John Deere provided volunteers as well to ensure our students were safe climbing in and out of the tractors.
