Denise Hobbs
My name is Denise Hobbs. I started teaching preschoolers when I was in fourth grade and haven't stopped teaching since! I earned a B.S. in Biology with a concentration in Marine Biology, and a Minor in Chemistry from C.S.U.N. I also earned my Masters in Secondary Education, emphasis in curriculum and instruction from C.S.U.N.

I am so excited to be able to share my passion for science with our secondary students, helping them think critically and have a Biblical viewpoint as they engage with science in their daily lives. Students will learn through various modalities in my classroom, which will give all students the chance to access the material and show what they know!

This year, I will be teaching 7th grade Life Science, 8th grade Physical Science, High School Honors/College Preparatory Biology, and High School Chemistry. Before Hillcrest, I served as a Care Provider and the Early Childhood Midweek Coordinator at a local church.

Science Program

Teacher(s): Julie Thatcher & Denise Hobbs
“By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so what is seen was not made out of things that are visible”.
- Hebrews 11:3
The Hillcrest Science Department provides a rigorous and comprehensive curriculum with engaging high-quality instruction that emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning with real world connections. Understanding science is a necessity in the world today. We challenge our students to be actively engaged in the learning process by asking questions, making observations, and connecting learning to their own lives so they can appreciate science and math, and persevere in an ever-changing world. With a wide variety of science courses including Anatomy and Physiology, Environmental Science, Marine Biology, and Sports Medicine, students are offered a supportive and collaborative learning environment in order to cultivate an excitement and appreciation for science as a dynamic and fundamental discipline.
