Message from East Hill Principal
Dear East Hill Families,
Another wonderful week at East Hill!
It was so nice today to visit classrooms and see our staff, students, and parent volunteers enjoying the holiday season. I am wishing all of our Wildcats and families peace and joy over the holiday break as well as the SNOW DAY tomorrow, December 23.
I look forward to seeing everyone when we return to school on Tuesday, January 3, 2023!
Have a wonderful break and happy new year!
Sincerely,
Susan Meskos

Kindergarten Registration NOW OPEN!
Kindergarten Registration for the 2023-2024 school year opened virtually on December 14, 2022 and will go until March 31, 2023. This will allow our families to register their children from the comfort of their homes or office. Please click here to start the Virtual Registration process. This will schedule a telemeeting with you.
When registering, parents should be prepared to upload the following:
- proof of residency (ie. mortgage or property statement or signed lease agreement)
- proof of immunizations
- proof of age
A physical examination is also required and a dental certificate is requested for entry into kindergarten. These examinations should be done up to one year prior to the first day of school. Children who enter kindergarten this fall must be five years of age on or before December 1, 2023.
