I do agree with a couple other reviewers. Teachers actually talk bad about their students in front of classes with other students. Those students have gone back and told my son this. This is childish and should not be tolerated from grown adults, especially ones that are supposed to be mentors for our children. My son needed extra help and was in a special program, when he was doing better they moved him back to a different class in the program where he struggled. I’m told this is to help him when he gets older and starts working. Let’s first focus on helping him get through high school. That seems like it should be a top priority for both the parent and the school system. It seems as though they are setting the kids up for failure, not sure if it’s a race thing or not. Possibly as someone else mentioned, if you’re not part of those students that excel, they don’t care. They will also lie to the parents, they think they’re smarter than you and you’ll believe what they’re saying if they say it enough times. It saddens me that I initially trusted staff at this school. Hard lesson learned.

This is the best school ever i just graduated as a 6th grader and the teachers and students are wonderful and no bullying goes on and allot of parents are involved you will LOVE hilltop elementary school

This school risk every Everything and makes kids go to school in negative weather as the busses all spin out from ice.

We are new to the district and we absolutely love this school. The teachers and staff are amazing. They truly care about your kiddos. My child has an IEP and some special education classes and everyone has been phenomenal through the entire process. The principal and assistant prinicpal are exceptional. They nipped a bully incident in the bud. Staff is very easy to communicate with. They use email alot which is GREAT. My son has made friends and really enjoys going to this school.
