Faculty & Administration
Hilltop Country Day School is committed to hiring a high quality faculty who is able to bring a rich background in both educational and personal experience. Teachers draw on their experiences as they supplement the curriculum and bring their subject matter to life. The Hilltop Country Day School faculty is our greatest asset. From our new teacher mentoring program to our reliance on the many years of experience among our veteran teachers, Hilltop is proud of this valuable resource.
