    Dear Hillcrest High School Families,

    We would like to partner with you as you prepare for these special events by providing you with clear expectations in regard to the dress code. We do understand that it is often difficult to find outfits that are modest and appropriate, but we thank you in advance for your cooperation with us. We have included guidelines for both young ladies and young gentlemen. Please note, if a student plans to bring a guest who is not an HCS student, the guest is also expected to abide by this dress code and must be interviewed and approved by Mrs. Thatcher by the assigned deadlines.

    Please take a few minutes to read through this information and discuss it with your daughter or son. Thank you for partnering with us to make this evening special for all of our students!
    Mrs. Thatcher, ASB Advisor

    Dress approval will be by appointment only, beginning February 14, 2022. Appointments will be available from 3 - 4pm, Monday through Friday, after school, and any morning before school from 7:00 am - 7:30 am. Please contact Mrs. Thatcher or anyone from the Dress Committee.

    The student must be wearing the dress during the appointment in order to be approved. No dresses will be approved via text message or email. Alterations should be done before approval day. Any alterations made after initial viewing will require a second approval prior to the event.

    Pictures will be taken on approval day. A picture of the approved dress will be at registration at the dance for verification, if necessary. Students who arrive in dresses that do not align with what was submitted and approved will be asked to leave without a refund of their ticket purchase.

    Any non-HCS student must comply with the HCS Dress Code and must have her dress approved in person. Students can contact Mrs. Thatcher for an appointment.

Hillcrest Infant Program

Our infant program will provide every child with a loving and nurturing environment, social interaction, and foundational communication skills through infant sign language. Our teachers are trained in infant and toddler development and will encourage and assist the development of the whole child. The facility and the curriculum of the infant program are designed to address all developmental areas for infants: sensory, gross and fine motor skills, self-help skills, language, and social/emotional growth. Hillcrest Christian believes that the infant years are pivotal and we provide each child with a 1:4 teacher ratio for maximum attention.

Hillcrest Preschool Program

Hillcrest Christian Preschool focuses on helping your child develop in all areas: physical, emotional, social, intellectual, and spiritual, in an environment full of genuine love and concern for each student. We realize how very important these years are to your child’s academic and social development. Our teachers provide a creative program that encourages each student’s curiosity and growing independence ages infant through transitional kindergarten.

Our students engage in the learning process through participation in hands-on projects, creative indoor and outdoor activities,  and interactive play experiences. We are committed to helping every child reach their full potential. We believe that every child who enters our program is a unique and special gift from God, and that it is our privilege and responsibility to help him know that he/she is loved and cared for by our Lord Jesus Christ.

Our new facility will feature spacious classrooms, a toddler swimming pool, multiple playgrounds, shaded trees, and a state of the art thermal screening. 

Along with being state licensed, our program is one of the few in the Conejo Valley that is also accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International, ACSI. We look forward to partnering with children and families to provide an authentic Christian education!

Our two year old preschool program provides older toddlers with a learning environment that fosters exploration of the world around them.

The curriculum of this program promotes language development, pre-academic math skills, phonics readiness concepts, and Christian character education.

Pre-Kindergarten Program
Our pre-kindergarten program focuses on three core elements: social/emotional development, kindergarten readiness academics, and developing Christian character..

The pre-kindergarten curriculum emphasizes pre-reading strategies, phonics development, and number sense strategies. Our classrooms provide authentic, hands-on, creative centers and learning experiences. Pre-kindergarten will provide your child with the essential academic foundation that they will need to be successful in transitional kindergarten, kindergarten, and beyond.

Transitional kindergarten is provided for children whose birthdays fall between September 2 and December 2. This program focuses on pre-kindergarten extension and kindergarten preparation. Students are exposed to learning opportunities that emphasize core academic concepts, social interaction, and Christian character. This program utilizes a modified kindergarten curriculum. The transitional kindergarten engages children in hands on learning experiences, pre-reading and reading strategies, phonics development, science exploration, and conceptual mathematics understandings. Students enrolled in the transitional kindergarten program are equipped with the academic skills necessary to be successful in kindergarten. Transitional kindergarten is designed to be a bridge between pre-kindergarten and kindergarten.
