Hilltop serves a diverse community with a profound sense of family and a passion for education. This eclectic working class community has entrusted us with over 400 children to educate. The number of single-parent homes has increased, resulting in more school involvement by extended families. Many of our students are second and third generation residents, which reflects our community pride and makes our school a desirable place for nurturing children. The school is supported by volunteer tutors, high school mentors, and parents supporting instruction.
Hilltop school is rich with tradition.
Built in 1957, Hilltop's unique foyer is graced by a beautiful, marble frieze purchased from the Cincinnati Public Library. The legacy of that fund is a collection of Spiegel Clowns and the Hilltop's Coat of Arms painted by the renowned artist Louis Spiegel. The beautiful flower gardens that adorn the entrances are maintained by student caretakers to create a positive, inviting atmosphere. This exceptional participation speaks to the enthusiasm and excitement that everyone experiences at Hilltop Elementary. As a direct result, our students enjoy positive test scores, our teachers are passionate about their mission, parents are willing volunteers, and the community benefits from our success.
