If you’re thinking of a Catholic education for your eighth grade year, you should come to St. Hilary. It’s a great balance of academics, sports, theatre, writing clubs, student council, and social justice groups. St. Hilary sets you up to be the best student you can be for high school. Also, as an athletic saber, you can chose from eight different sport options; cross- country, track, basketball, cheerleading, soccer, volleyball, softball/baseball, and football. Mock trial and Power of the pen challenge your writing and debate skills. If you like music, singing, or preforming then you might enjoy the school’s choir or partiapate in the junior high musical. Being a Catholic school, students can participate in Kids Care Club or Rachel’s Challenge. In the classroom you are motivated to try your best, even if your not always right. Technology has become apart of everyday learning and next year everyone gets an iPad for the year. We hope to see you next year.
