Not a GOOD school. The The leadership is not disciplining the students. What child swears to a treacher and is back in class?? The same day and next and next..Classrooms have too many students and always includes a child that is academically unable to function in a classroom setting..It's a injustice to the child that needs different care than this school is able to give.

I'm near the end of my time at Hillside School. My son is in 8th grade and he has thrived at Hillside. He is top in academics. Scores excellent in standardized test. He has enjoyed many opportunities in sports and extracurricular activities. School leadership is in transition but the changes are due to retirement not firing. The new superintendent has brought new energy and fresh ideas. The previous superintendent was very out of touch and stagnant not allowing any growth and change. The community is more engaged with the school and their is a long-term strategy for the future. I would recommend Hillside School. Great one school district.

This is the world's best kept secret. The class size small, the infrastructure modern, latest technology, affordable and extensive extra curricular activities, caring faculty from front line to administration. Hillside Elementary provides diverse learning opportunities for each student. The uniforms are a blessing. I am fully confident that my daughter will be very well prepared socially and academically for high school. Thank you to each person in the Hillside School Community.

This is a good school with involved teachers and parents. This is a relatively small school issues are quickly identified and addressed. The school provides a good environement for the students to learn. The administrations is constantly looking at ways to improve the school. This schools has the potential of becoming an exceptional school.

Hillside School is a good school. My daughters love it. They try to do a lot of activities for the family and I really love the Characters Count Program that tries to teach the kids morals and values.
