Parents,
Recently, our office has been inundated with outside delivery businesses, such as UBER eats, delivering lunch to some Hill students. We ask that Hill parents please refrain from using these services, as it is not safe nor appropriate at the elementary level. We have more than 950 students at Hill school, and cannot have outside vendors coming into our school to deliver students lunch. We appreciate your understanding.

This week we introduced our first Hill Writing Challenge of the year to all Hill students. Handouts for the challenge went home earlier in the week with your child. The prompt for the challenge is “What are your Hill Superpowers?” Our goal is for students to reflect on what makes them a unique Hill Dillo at school, while also practicing a more expository form of writing that is crucial as our students advance. Thank you for encouraging your student(s) to take part in this awesome showcase opportunity. All writing will be read by Hill administration. Every student who participates will receive a prize, with some showcase papers being posted for the community to read at school. More specific information is present on the handout that went home. Extra copies are available in the office and a drop off box for completed Writing Challenge papers is now set up. The challenge ends October 31st. For more specific questions, feel free to email Mr. Drummond at jack.drummond@austinisd.org. We can’t wait to read about what makes your Dillo super!
