  • I ATTENDED SCHOOL HERE ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO. THE OWNERS THERE, IF DIFFERENT FROM TODAY WERE NOT VERY PROFESSIONAL AND WOULD ALLOW FAMILY MEMBERS IN AND OUT OF THE SCHOOL AS IF IT WAS A ZOO, RATHER THAN A PRIVATE SCHOOL. IT SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED PRIVATE.
  • I, an American married to a Honduran women, moved to Tegucigalpa May 2008. My niece and a nephew go to Hillcrest. Three other nieces and another nephew attended over the past 10 years or so. My daughter is registered for this year and I was just hired to teach world history. Never heard any negative comments about the school. Now, as a teacher and father of a student, I will make a determination of my own.
  • I have a nephew here, I consider myself Hillcrest as one of the best schools. However, I am quite dissapointed in the way that some issues are working as: Let the first graders to write from the blackboard the homework in their notebooks? They are just learning to write. Homework's instruccions in Spanish or bilingual will be wonderfull(so parents know what to do). Somebody says, "15 years ago was a zoo," well, now, you can not talk with a teacher if there is not a preview appointment, "it is a school," not a clinic. I am a teacher, I set up time(15') before and after school hours to talk with parents. There is a phone to use for parents to leave a message, so I can answer their questions. Otherwise, congratulations, the school is wonderfull, excelent discipline, plus.
  • i am there i one grade and the pricinpals sucks
  • I worked at Hillcrest back in the nineties and for me it the best experience of my career in teaching. We had a great group of teachers and we all got along. As a Canadian working in Honduras, I could not have asked for a better job. Thank you Hillcrest. Chris Pusztay
  • I attended school here 24 years ago. The owner's children were working at the school, while raising their own children. Relatives with babies came in and out of the school. The lady who owned the school would walk around yelling, I was too young to understand why or to whom. At the time, the school's structure had too much pavement, it felt sad and cold. The owners ran the place as if it was a military school. As for the teachers... "Top Quality".
  • I attended that school in 1985. I was 5 years old and I remember watching my teachers beat my classmates. In kindergarten! This school should be shutdown. 48years of child abuse and inferior education should not be allowed to continue. It is a horrible place.
