SAFETY IN THE PARKING LOT!
It appears there are several people coming in the parking lot exit at dismissal. PLEASE NOTE that the exit on 76th street is an EXIT ONLY. Cars will be coming out of the parking lot, and entering through that driveway is a safety hazard which could result in a car crash. I realize folks want to save time, but this is not the way to do it. Thank you for obeying traffic patterns and signage at Hillside.

PBiS Particulars
We are a PBiS school! PBiS stands for Positive Behavior Support and Intervention. PBiS does more than just recognize those students who are doing the right thing. PBiS can also help students who need to develop the skills necessary to be successful in school. As a team, we develop and refine plans for students who need a visual, a structure, feedback, and rewards to develop the skills of positive behavior.
We work on a Skill of the Week every week as a school. Look below for next week's skill!
