From Principal Drummond

Dear Hill Community,

We hope you have a restful fall break this week. As a reminder, there is no school Monday-Friday. We will see you all again on Monday, November 28th!

We want to invite those interested to a special Principal Check-In Thursday, December 1st at 7:45 am in our Hill library. Principal Chara Harris and her team from Murchison Middle School will have a presentation for our outgoing 5th grade families. They will be able to answer questions you may have as well. All families are welcome if you’d like more information on the transition to middle school. We hope to see many of you there.

Deadline Extended: We are excited for the return of our UIL competition open to 2nd-5th grade students that will be held at Ridgetop in February. Letters with more information on how your child can participate were sent home in Wednesday folders. You can access that letter here as well. We are looking forward to continuing this fun and engaging program. UIL intention to participate forms (in the linked letter) are now due Friday, December 2nd.

We wanted to share the directions for accessing report cards in the portal as we have received some questions. You can click this link to access report card directions.

Food Resources from AISD: With many Austin ISD students living in food-insecure households, access to healthy food may be challenging when the district is closed.  Families can use the community resources below to find free meals in their area while Austin ISD offices and schools are closed for the fall break November 21-25:

Take care. Have a wonderful break, Hill families!
