PARENTAL EXPECTATIONS FOR THEIR CHILDREN

As we approach the final months of school, it is a good idea for parents to take the time to review the expectations they hold for their children in both the academic and behavioral areas with them.  Include a review of our Student Handbook in this discussion.  It is helpful for children to realize that their parents and teachers share the same set of positive expectations for them.

DRESS CODE ALERT

Parents, please be advised that your child MUST be wearing the school uniform, khaki pants/skirt, white, black or burgundy collared shirt each and every day.    Although your child may leave home in the school uniform, often times students change clothes once they reach their lockers. This is a direct violation of the dress code and they will be excluded. All attire must be clean and neat.  The administration of the school reserves the right to exclude any student whose clothing is disruptive to the educational process.

1. Shorts, cut-offs, hot pants, athletic shorts, and tight fitting shorts (example: bicycle or running shorts) ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE.  Attire, such as culottes or pants, which fall to the knee ARE ACCEPTABLE.
2. Any article, which displays indecent writing, pictures, or slogans, is not acceptable.
3. Any article that is excessively soiled is not acceptable.

Michelle Freitas was this years recipient of the Vito Recine Memorial Scholarship Award.  This scholarship is awarded to only one high school student each year by the Athletic Trainers Society of New Jersey.  This is the second year in a row that a Hillside Athletic Training member has won this award.  Congratulations to Michelle and Head Athletic Trainer James Boyle on this outstanding accomplishment.
