Seniors took their culminating trip by going to a variety of places downtown. They started at a Navy Pier where they went on the Ferris Wheel, had a blast in the Fun House and visited different stores and sampled different foods. They then traveled to the Field Museum where they learned about different areas of the world. From there they traveled to the Planetarium and then walked along the lake front. Seniors had a blast while making many memories along the way. It was a perfect trip to end their senior year. #hillcresthawkpride
Incredible leaders have the best mentors. Happy Principal Appreciation Day to Mr. Towner!
Your leadership, kindness, and commitment have shaped Hillcrest in unforgettable ways. We’re going to miss you deeply, but your impact will always be a part of our school. Best of luck at district office in your new role 💙
