Over break, like many of you know, we lost our beloved science teacher Mr. Thomas Schwartz. He was an important part of our school.
On Thursday, January 15th we had a celebration of life for him. Mr. Schwartz had worked at Hill for 8 years. This means he has taught students that have already graduated from high school.
He was born in New York in 1985, and was 41 years old when he passed. He lived a full life filled with travel and trivia. Mr.Schwartz had many travels locations including but not limited to latin american; including Ecuador and Honduras. He even took Spanish lessons in Guatemala. He made sure to always include trips to the United Kingdom to see his nieces and nephews whom he would frequently talk about in his classes.
Mr.Schwartz is loved and will be missed by many. Including this Hill Community, especially by his colleagues and students.
