October Bulletin

 September Calendar Change!

New Date for Parent Council Meeting.

We apologize for the last minute notice but the Parent Council Meeting has been changed from Wednesday, September 26th to Tuesday, October, 9th.  We hope that we will see all of you there!

                                                                                                                                                   

It feels like summer but the trees, brightening into reds and oranges, tell a different story…

Like the weather, Hillside’s October begins calmly but ends with drama — our annual 7 – 12th grade Halloween party!  Please read below for details.  Our online calendar presents the same information, along with the dates for clubs. Click HERE to go to the calendar.
