Hillis staff — we see how much you show up and care for your students every single day, and we’re so grateful for the way you’ve welcomed and supported us too. We love these babies so much and truly couldn’t do this without you. 🤍

Heartfelt gratitude to Lachele's Fine Foods + Cory for helping provide a meal for every Hillis staff member during Teacher Appreciation Week, and to the students for bringing so much joy to these spaces all year long.
