Welcome Back!

Happy New Year Hillcrest!

We had some beautiful weather over Holiday Break and then as soon as we get back, the bone chilling winds returned. We will go out for recess when the temperature and the wind chill is above 25 degrees. Please make sure you bundle up.

However, we have some new games for indoor recess. BOX HOCKEY! It is a really fun aerobic exercise. There will be 8 students at a time that can play. Once a person wins, a new pair comes out to try their skills. I hope you will all get an opportunity to play Box Hockey. I know when I played my heart was racing, we laughed and had a really good time. Maybe next time I'll challenge you to a game. Would there be anyone interested in a Box Hockey Tournament? We could have a lot of fun.

Finally, we are in need of more Dad's for the Watch D.O.G.S. program. The Dad of the day was a huge success in the fall. If you have been here once, come again. If you haven't had the opportunity, please call and let's get you on the calendar. You will need the background check completed and the VIPS (Volunteers In Public Schools) form filled out. These are easy tasks and then we can get you signed up to be part of our Dad's Of Great Students.

Have a great week, Mr. Elsea
