Middle School Program
The middle school program strives to encourage independent and critical thinking across all subject areas. Each student is viewed as an individual who brings different experiences, ideas, interests, and learning styles to the classroom. Students take on a more active role in organizing and planning their daily school routine, taking ownership of their learning experience as well as understanding their role as leaders within the school community. Collaboration and creative thought are encouraged as students participate in real-world discussions and problem-solve.

Student Council Named Gold Council of Excellence
Hilltop’s Student Council was recognized by the National Association of Student Councils as a Gold Council of Excellence. Hilltop’s council is led by elected members of the eighth grade class and representatives from students in grades four through eight. During the 2016-17 school year the council donated more than $1,500 to The Seeing Eye. These funds were raised through a number of Dress Down Day fundraisers. The Student Council also plans several social events throughout the year including movie nights, holiday parties and a spring carnival.
