There is absolutely no unity in this school. The school safety is an issue as well many students skip school and fight each other every day.
7/20/2023
It's an overall nice school. The curriculum is good, certain staff members are always attentive. But too many fights. It's mainly the students who can't act faults. It's also a huge school and very easy to get lost in if you don't know where you're going. But ask for directions people are more than happy to help sometimes.

The different SLC allows you to have classes that are related to the career field you want to go in. It also breaks down the large school body into a smaller community and allow you to be surround with those who have similar interests as yourself.

An Institution that supports terrorism within its hallways and perpetrated on it's staff and students. The principal needs to be reassigned at the very least if not terminated from employment in this antisemitic institution. The FBI and police need to intervene here. This is NOT a safe place for you...

Hillcrest is a wonderful school with clear rules and expectations for its students as well as a rigorous curriculum.

This school is great but I do have to say there are some flaws in the school. I don't like the rule for not allowing cellphones to step one foot in the building. What if there was an emergency my son wouldn't have his phone! Otherwise very good school!
