Mr. Hill - 5th Grade
My name is Mr. Hill and I am a first-year 5th Grade Special Education teacher! I grew up right here in Upper Makefield. I went to SFE, NMS, and CRN. After high school I went to the University of Delaware and got a degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. I love to spend my summers in Brigantine, NJ. I am also heavily involved in my local fire department (Newtown Fire Association) where I am a Lieutenant. I look forward to a great year at SFE!
