Farm Bureau reads to Hillcrest 2nd graders!
Hillcrest juniors Savanah Miesner and Chloe Brannon served as legislative pages today at the Arkansas state Capitol. Other Hillcrest students were able to go with them to tour the Capitol and observe the workings of our state government. These students and our Hillcrest administration would like to thank our Representative Bart Schulz for inviting the students to the Capitol today, even though he couldn't be there as he was in Cave City helping with disaster relief efforts. They would also like to thank Cheryl Augustine, public relations lead at visitor services at the Capitol in Little Rock, for an amazing tour.
Hillcrest 3rd graders have been anxiously awaiting our classroom chicks to hatch. This was part of our study on lifecycles in science.
