Hillcrest High School's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state averages across all subject areas and grade levels.

The school's free/reduced lunch rate of 59.12% indicates that a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Despite the school's low test scores, it has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 4:1, suggesting a high level of individual attention and support for students. However, the school's spending per student of $12,157 is higher than the state average, which could indicate that the district is investing resources into the school, though the impact on student outcomes is unclear. Overall, the data suggests that Hillcrest High School is struggling to meet academic standards and could benefit from targeted interventions or support to improve student outcomes.
