How will my student sign up for sports?
Our athletic office will walk you step-by-step through the process to sign your student up for the sport they desire. There is a formal registration period where the athletic office arranges a specific time to meet with families and/or students to process registration forms and confirm completion of all necessary documents. From there, the students and family are introduced to the athletic calendar and schedule where they will be able to track the practice schedule and contact coaches.
How do Parent-Teacher conferences work?
Hillcrest arranges parent-teacher conferences around family visit times to the campus. The fall conferences will be held in November. If parents are unable to attend a conference, or have specific questions regarding their student, they should know that the teachers at Hillcrest work to make themselves readily available for any and all questions. Through Hillcrest's student management system, RenWeb, parents are able to chart student progress and email teachers directly.
If a parent has additional questions they should contact Principal Isaac directly (jisaac@ffhillcrest.org | 218-737-6407).
How do we follow our student's Life at Hillcrest?
Hillcrest offers a number of avenues for parents to track the life of the student during their time at Hillcrest. Postings on social media (Facebook, and Instagram) give an insight into the classroom and school culture. Hillcrest also offers LiveStreaming of specific Hillcrest activities. This is a great chance for parents to watch their child play and/or cheer in the stands.
What is the Campus Security at Hillcrest?
Hillcrest takes campus security very seriously. We lock down the campus each night. Nightly checks in school hallways and residence halls provide a constant physical presence and campus security check. Portions of Hillcrest's campus are under video surveillance to provide continued campus security.
How will my student get to the airport during vacations?
Hillcrest arranges curbside transportation to and from the Fargo Airport (Hector International Airport). Students flying into Minneapolis may have to take the Groome Transportation shuttle. The shuttle leaves from the transportation hub of the Minneapolis St. Paul airport and takes students as far as Alexandria, Minnesota. Pre-arranged transportation will schedule a Hillcrest driver to meet the student in Alexandria to complete the final leg of the trip to Hillcrest. To register for pick-up from an airport, please complete the Travel Request Form. Any transportation questions, please contact transportation@ffhillcrest.org or call 218.737.6404.
