Grants

Hillcrest Educational Centers would like to thank the following supporters for their generosity in approving grant funding for crucial projects on our campuses, including major upgrades to support the renovation of Hillcrest Academy (the former St. Mark’s School). Funding also supports various life skills programs, career counseling programs, registration fees for our teachers and staff to attend the MAAPS conference, supplying our ASD students with technology to enhance their quality of life, and general operating support.
