Arena Scheduling Changes 2021-2022:

On May 10, 2021 at 8:00 am, arena scheduling will open for the 2021-2022 school year schedule class changes.  It will then close at 11:59 p.m. on May 20, 2021.

If you need to make changes, refer to the directions below:

Arena Schedule Change Directions:

  2. Click on the “Arena Scheduling” link under the student name.
  3. View your current schedule by clicking the “view/print schedule” link in blue near the top of the page.
  4. If your schedule looks good, you don’t need to do anything.
  5. If you would like to make a change, plan which classes to switch before you delete a class.
  6. To add a class, select “Search Options” then click “Apply Filter” to locate a course by name, period, subject or teacher.

***Incoming Seniors***

 We wanted to make you aware that Hillcrest will be offering online options for next year’s Seniors in English and US Government.  These are options that will be taught by Hillcrest teachers and are being made available to seniors only in order to increase flexibility in their scheduling and provide additional opportunities for next school year.  On a space available basis, students can select in-person or online options in these classes next year.

Senior Dinner Dance Tickets/Test to Dance:

 Tickets are now on sale for Senior Dinner Dance in the main office. Tickets are $10 a student. This can be paid in the main office with cash, card or check. The deadline to buy a ticket is May 19th. So please stop by and buy a ticket ASAP.

All seniors planning on attending the senior dinner dance must be COVID tested before going to the dance.  We will be testing on May 25th, at 10:30 a.m. in the main gym.  To be able to test you must go online and register with the state at http://redcap.link/utah.gov-Hillcrest if you have already registered with Red Cap you do not need to register again. If you have had the vaccine, you can bring your vaccine card and you will not have to test, but can pick up the dance wristband.
