Hillside Fellowship Meeting
You are invited to attend a Hillside Fellowship meeting on Saturday, April 7th from 4:00-6:00 p.m.
Hillside Fellowship was founded in 1969 on the belief that each of us is of inherent value, and that through participation in a supportive community based on love and forgiveness, we learn to risk being our authentic selves. Such support enables us to develop and use our gifts for the greater good.
In this spirit, the Fellowship meets together periodically to discuss ideas that intrigue and inspire us, with the purpose of strengthening our understanding of ourselves and each other, and building a fun, supportive community. With this support and understanding, we use our unique gifts to better the world.
Meetings follow a basic format: One person shares an idea, a piece of literature, art, or music that they find inspiring or intriguing. (The person who shares changes from meeting to meeting.) Each of us reflects on the presentation through drawing, poetry, prose, interpretive dance… whatever! We then have the option to share and discuss our responses. Afterwards we enjoy a potluck meal. People are welcome to attend the potluck or leave after the meeting.
Any and all (or no) faith backgrounds are welcome. We hope to see you this April 7th.
Please note: There is no child care provided, so kids who can withstand a long-ish focus are welcome to attend with their parents. Parents who bring young children will be responsible for watching them.
Feel free to contact Karen with any questions.
Live Theater Field Trips
Brynne masterminded not one, but two field trips to see live theater in our area. The 8th graders went to see “Two Trains Running” at Seattle Repertory Theater to compliment their in-class work with August Wilson. The 5th, 6th, and 7th graders had the opportunity to see Seattle Children’s Theater’s “The Little Prince,” including a private question and answer with Lamar Legend, who played the Aviator.
Live Theater at Hillside
The 5th and 6th graders are hard at work on this year’s Intermediate play, a set of short scenes adapted by Neil Simon from Anton Checkov’s short stories. Make sure to see the performance on April 5th or 6th at 7:00 p.m.
Poetry Out Loud
Congratulations to ninth grader Joshua Mashkowski for representing Hillside in the regional Poetry Out Loud competition on Saturday, February 2nd at Tacoma Public Library. He recited “The Destruction of Sennacherib” by Lord Byron and “Pieta” by Kevin Young. Hillside is proud of Joshua’s hard work and strong performance!

Drama Club Showcase
Jean and his intrepid Drama Club is presenting a showcase on Friday, February 9th at 7:30 p.m. This show is rated PG-13; we welcome friends, family, and anyone else interested to join us for an evening of original theater!

Our next Open House is on Thursday, February 1st. We hope to get the chance to connect with you! Whether you can join us or not, please spread the word about Hillside to any families looking for their next academic step and encourage them to come to the Open House.
Conferences
Our spring conferences will be on Friday, February 9th. Feedback from fall conferences was that more clarity in what teacher teaches which classes would be helpful, so to that end please look forward to each teacher’s classes being identified in the sign-up slots.
These conferences work best when students as well as parents can attend, allowing everyone to have a conversation to support their learning. An email with a reminder of students’ Point Teachers and the sign up link will be emailed to you in the next week.
World Cultures
Brynne, Karen, and the World Cultures class enjoying Ethiopian cuisine as part of their unit on Africa.

A Town Hall tradition, the holiday edition of Short Stories Live (curated by Jean Sherrard) brings together unconventional holiday tales for an afternoon of short stories, poems, and seasonal music by returning house band Pineola (comprised of Leslie Braly, John Owen, Josh Woods, Dirk Lebsack, and Ed Brooks). Favorite Northwest actors, including Kurt Beattie, Marianne Owen, and Bill Ontiveros, will take turns sharing the gleeful, carousing nature only “A Rogue’s Christmas” can hold.
This year’s story selections include the irreverent and witty “You Better Not Cry” from Augusten Burroughs, “Three Wise Guys,” Sandra Cisneros’ story of a well-intentioned but misbegotten clash of cultures, the funny and bittersweet “Home for the Holidays” by Chris Radant, and a selection from Jeanette Winterson’s “Christmas Days” encompassing the childlike and spooky wonder of Christmas.

Jane Davie in A Christmas Carol
Valley Center Stage is excited to announce the return of A Christmas Carol, a timeless story of joyful redemption written by Charles Dickens and adapted for the stage by Brenden and Wynter Elwood. This heartwarming holiday tale for all ages follows the life of Ebenezer Scrooge, who we meet at the height of his wealth and success. Years of miserliness has turned him into a bitter and greedy old man. The only companion Scrooge has, apart from his tired meek servant, Bob Cratchit, is his cold dark spirit. That is, however, until the spirit world, led by his former business partner, makes him reconcile who he is with where he came from and where he is destined to go.
Jane has two roles- Fred’s wife and the Laundress, as well as a couple of ensembles. Show runs 12/1-12/17

Fine Arts
Leslie’s Makers Night Kiln Fundraiser was a success! In addition to awesome art being created by Hillside staff, students, family, and friends, we raised enough money to buy a kiln! The means that Hillside will be able to expand the types of artistic endeavors we can offer. Kudos to Leslie!
Open House
Pass the word along! On Thursday, January 4th, we will have our first Open House of the new year. Many families begin their search for the upcoming school year in January, so please pass our information along to those you know looking for the next academic step. We hope to see you there!
Kindness
The 5th and 6th graders have been participating in a 21-Day Kindness Challenge with the assistance of kindspring.org. Our goal is to create a kindness epidemic through sharing our own kind acts in the world, hoping that our kindness will engender kindness in turn. Our first task was to make surprise cards—and we made enough for the entire school! Ask your student(s) about their card.

Open House
Nothing fights the chill of fall like good company, and we would love yours.
Please join us for our first Open House of the year today, November 2, from 6:30-8:30, Join us to welcome visitors to Hillside and, with our staff, to answer their questions about our program.
It is particularly helpful when inquiring families can talk to current or former students and parents. Thank you all for being part of the Hillside community!
Conferences
Wednesday, November 22, regular classes will not be held. Instead, we will be having our Fall Conferences. Parents as well as students should attend conferences if at all possible.
Having students as part of the conference allows us to all work together, building a strong home/school team to support success.
Conference sign-ups will go live Friday at 1 p.m. To accommodate family preferences, you may sign up to speak with one teacher (likely your student’s Point Teacher), or with multiple teachers.
Intermediate Elections
As part of our study of American History, we have our own United Desks of the Alder Classroom government. Starting with brainstorming our goals for our time in class, we build a Constitution as well as a Bill of Rights and Responsibilities. To help fulfill the goals of our Constitution, we held elections, and have strong and dedicated leaders in the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial Branches. The Legislative Branches have been busy drafting and revising laws to support our learning goals, the Executive reviews and signs (or vetoes) them, as well as delivering a monthly State of the Classroom Address, and the Judicial Branch scrutinizes each signed bill, ensuring that it does not violate our Constitution.
Classroom Constitution Preamble
Our goal in this class is to build skills in humanities, math, science, art, and drama in a safe, fun, supportive, and encouraging environment. We will develop the personal qualities of creativity, self-knowledge, problem solving, leadership, niceness, and kindness.
Bill of Rights and Responsibilities
1. We have the Right to be treated with respect as individuals with the Responsibility to respect others as individuals
2. We have the Right to be confused, not know the answer, and to make mistakes with the Responsibility to fix our confusion, work to learn the answers, and to benefit from our mistakes
3. We have the Right to learn new things with the Responsibility to use knowledge in responsible ways
4. We have the Right to have fun while learning at school with the Responsibility to follow school rules and use time/resources responsibly
5. We have the Right to express our thoughts, opinions, and creativity with the Responsibility to express ourselves at appropriate times in appropriate ways, including respecting others’ points of view
6. We have the Right to read, work, and talk at our own speed, and to take work or available school resources home to complete assignments with the Responsibility to respect others’ pace and use time well; to finish work and bring it and school resources back when due
New Building Update
The gears are turning on our construction project, and the Board is currently evaluating our options in terms of location, designs, as well as following the guidelines and timeframe set by the City of Bellevue. We hope to have more definite news in the future!

Interested students should contact Brynne (brynne@hillsidesc.org) as soon as possible. The only entry skills required are the ability to memorize and recite a poem from the Poetry Out Loud website. If enough students are interested, we will host a school competition in December to determine a winner that will advance to local competition in Tacoma in February of 2018. In the past, Brynne’s POL contestants in Kent and Kirkland won both 2nd and 3rd place titles in state competition. She is more than happy to keep Hillside in the winning tradition! All interested students need to contact Brynne no later than October 27, and she will individually coach each contestant during lunchtime during the month of November by appointment.

Laura, Sigrid, and Catherine (a very tolerant parent!) accompanied the 5th/6th Earth Science class on an overnight trip to the Volcano Outdoor School at the Mt. St. Helens Institute.
