School opens Thursday, September 6, 2018.  I hope that you have had a safe, restful and enjoyable summer. 

As a shared partner in your child’s education, I invite you to visit the school to discuss questions or concerns you may have relating to your child’s education.  I look forward to meeting you and welcome your support and partnership for an outstanding school year.

As per NJ State requirements we will conduct one fire drill and one lock down each month, twice a year we will have an evacuation drill.

I wish all of you a healthy, productive and exciting school year.

Sincerely,

Christine M. Sidwa

On September 17th,  a HHS Alumni, Amir Combs class of 2009, attended the 70th annual Emmy Awards for the work he did on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah as a production assistant and editor. The show was nominated for Best Variety Series. He has also worked on BET as a production assistant as well. Amir is a product of Hillside TV Production and was a student of Mrs. Sala Della Cuna. He found his love of production and media right here in The Hillside TV Department!
