STUDENT SECTION
SCHOOL WISDOM OF THE DAY: Justification for mediocre work in school can always be invented – it’s called an: “alibi.” (Radford)
STUDENTS: College bound seniors must apply to CSU’s & UC’s during October and November. During these months, we will proudly announce some of Hilltop’s finest college graduates! Today’s “Staff Spotlight” is Ms. Lopez-Macias. Ms. Lopez-Macias attended San Diego State and National University. In order to be successful in college, Ms. Lopez-Macias advises students to start becoming accustomed to taking ownership and being responsible for their own progress, learning, and grades. YOU will be the most important motivating factor deciding whether or not you are successful. Her most memorable experience from college was attending a dinner held in honor of students given membership to the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa. Ms. Lopez-Macias is a lifetime member.
