Students of all ages can benefit from our Enrich! Program.
Students in grades TK through 5 receive 5-6 enrichments per week, including music instruction one day per week and additional band time by the district’s music specialist. Visual and performing arts are also part of the GUSD program. Classroom teachers and an art specialist provide this program.
Hillcrest Middle School students are enrolled in at least two daily elective classes as well as a weekly enrichment class. Students choose from a variety of music, art, drama, Spanish, STEM/Maker and a multitude of other high interest programs.
Our Enrich! Program requires a longer school day to include additional field trips, visual arts, and enrichment classes that include STEM and STREAM offerings.
While not a complete list, the information below provide a glimpse into the opportunities that make up part of our unique Gravenstein student experience.
