This week at Hill we are spotlighting the precious Bartoo family! They are new to Hill this year and their sweet girl is the most precious kindergartner we have! See below how sweet they are!

1. Who we are: We are The Bartoo Family...Seth, Natalie and Olivia. We are excited to be brand new Highlanders as our almost 6 year old Olivia is in Kindergarten!

2. What we love about Hill: We are truly in love with Hill and the sweet community that this school creates! We heard so many good things about Hill but due to Covid there was no Kinder Round-up, so we really did not know much about the actual school. I sent an email to Mrs. Longoria Memorial Day weekend to just ask some questions and she responded within a few hours offering lots of information and even a zoom call! Everything we heard in that call showed the love the staff has for the students, their jobs/roles, and Hill. We KNEW Hill was where we wanted Olivia to grow! Every single encounter with every staff person has been amazing and personal and loving. The great effort put into details, communication, community, and fun makes all the difference. Hill is a rare jewel and we are enjoying this treasure!!

3. Something unique about our family: We like to celebrate those wacky, strange National Days...like "National Talk Like a Pirate Day," "National Coloring Book Day," and "National Waffle Day." We decided a few years back to pick some of those days every month to make special silly memories and to just have fun!

4. What the pandemic been teaching us: The pandemic has been reminding us to trust God to be our provider and that He is in control. We are also reminded to be flexible and to find the hidden gems that this pandemic has provided. We have had so much more time together as a family! It was also so fun to get to peak into Kindergarten for 6 weeks while it was online. We would have never had that opportunity to see and get to know her classmates and the amazing Mrs. Gonzalez so well otherwise.

5. How we are still finding Joy each day: Well...Joy is Natalie's favorite word and we are just a silly and fun family who loves Jesus and always tries to find joy in just being together. Whether we are playing games, making up silly songs, watching silly shows, being with family, loving on others, or serving at church, joy is where we try to be!

We LOVE the Bartoo family! Thank you for making Hill a whole lot brighter! ... See MoreSee Less
