I LOVE HILLTONIA every second I was there. I LOVE the Teachers especially Mr. Carter. He is a 8th grade math teacher and I LOVE his stories of TEACH Me that he would make up everyday just to make all of my classmates laugh. Ms. Lebuae is the principle and she is very nice. Now I am in high school and I miss all of my teachers. Also my friends because they went to another high school and I had to go to a different high school. Ms. Shinabarger, Mr. Blosser,Mr. Carter, and Ms. Blake are one of the best teachers ever. I would to HILLTONIA and visit my teachers if I could but I can't because I am to busy. But when I have a chance to visit them I will.
