Dear Hill Community,

This week is Office Staff and After School Childcare Appreciation Week! Please join us in thanking these two amazing groups for all they do. Our office staff is the heart of our school and the first faces that greet you. Our Childcare Workers go above and beyond to do so many different tasks for our students each day. Dillo Cheer for these ladies!

Our older students made us proud this past week as they worked so hard on their Reading Language Arts STAAR. As a reminder, here is our remaining schedule for this week and next:

• This Wednesday, April 26th: 5th Grade STAAR Science Exam (Make-Ups the Following Day)

• Wednesday, May 3rd: 3rd, 4th, 5th STAAR Math Exam (Make-Ups the Following Day)

A reminder that volunteers should not be on campus during STAAR testing days. Thank you all for ensuring your 5th grade Dillos get good sleep on Tuesday night and a healthy breakfast the morning of. We hope they can be at school those days at 7:30 am.
