Character Word and Quote of the Week

Forgiveness- the attitude of someone who is willing to forgive other people.

Quote of the day - “Sincere forgiveness isn't colored with expectations that the other person apologizes or change. Don't worry whether or not they finally understand you. Love them and release them. Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time.” ~ Sara Paddison

Ms. Kristina Waters

As one of our Math teachers, Ms. Waters has been a great addition to Hillcrest High School. Every year Ms. Waters has improved and shown that she is willing to do whatever is asked or whatever it takes to help students reach their maximum potential. She co-sponsors the Beta Club and organizes events such as the massive food drive held each Fall. Ms. Waters has helped the school in many ways including always being at her duty station, helping with testing, and eagerly accepted new challenges of adding AP classes into her schedule.
