PBiS at Hillside and the Skill of the Week
Hillside emphasizes the "3-Be's"
BE SAFE
BE RESPECTFUL
BE RESPONSIBLE
We want all students to know how to be safe, respectful, and responsible, not only while at school, but in their life!
The Skill of the Week for 12/5-12/9/22 is:
Active Listening
When you listen actively, you:
- Look at the person who is talking and remain quiet
- Wait until the person is finished talking before you speak
- Show that you heard them by nodding your head, saying, "Okay," "That's interesting," etc.
We will be working on the above skill all week!
STEAM Day is at Hillside on Wednesday, DECEMBER 21, 2022
Supporting Your Student's Reading Skills at Home
It is important, as families are able, to continue at home the literacy learning that happens at Hillside. Thanks, families, for all you do!
Music Programs for Hillside Families
Hillside's Community Club is Having a Fundraiser!
We definitely do NOT want students to go door to door, etc.!! The SMARTCard is an item that many might find useful, and the cards will be easy to order and deliver.
Here is the website for the SMARTCard if you wish to know more:
We hope you will find a way to participate! Our Community Club does so much for our school, and we are hoping to be able to fund their efforts. If Hillside sells 1200 cards, Zio’s Pizza will throw our school a pizza party. There will also be prizes for the top 3 classes, and any student that sells 100 cards will get a Nintendo Switch! We are excited to have this fundraiser for our school!
