๐ŸฅณWhen the Hillcrest hallways are full of excitement and big smiles in August, it can only mean one thing: Open House! Last night reminded us why we love our "Heron Community" so much. It was more of a family gathering where we caught up with old friends and welcomed new friends to the "nest". Seeing students, parents, and teachers reconnect has our staff energized and ready for the school year ahead. ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ง๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐˜†, ๐—ฆ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐Ÿญ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐—ผ๐—ป!
