As we begin the Spring Semester, it is a good time to give parents some general reminders about arrival/dismissal procedures.
Remember that the tardy bell rings at 7:45 am each morning. If your child arrives after the tardy bell rings, please park and accompany your child into the school office to get a tardy slip.
Students school not walk into school late unaccompanied by an adult.
When driving around Hill School please remember to SLOW down and follow all traffic rules/laws. We have over 960 students at Hill and we want to keep every student safe. If you need to come pick your child up during the school day, please park your car in designated parking, not in the front driveway. This is a fire zone and AISD PD may ticket your car.
