Attention Parents and Hillcrest community members! School Council has been diligently working behind the scenes to continue to support students and families this year.

We did a pizza fundraiser in April to help raise funds for our School Council College Award and we would like to award a second student with the same amount but need your help! We are aiming for $250 but if we receive more, we will be able to award to even more students. All monies raised will be spent this year.

Please consider donating and you can receive a tax receipt as well. Here's more information:

Hillcrest High School Council College Award is awarded to a student who has demonstrated a commitment toward their chosen career through thoughtful research, participation in Co-operative Education, job shadow or other work-related program and are planning on pursuing post-secondary education through the College pathway.

School Council is donating to one bursary but we would like to allow a second student the same opportunity. All monies raised will go towards an additional graduate bursary for a deserving College bound graduating student.

Tax receipts are available for all donations.
