On Wednesday, June 4, 2025, Hillside Public Schools District hosted its "Hidden in Plain Sight & Drug Trends" event at Hillside High School! The goal of this event was to simulate a teenager's bedroom, in which several items have been placed that may indicate that the teen is using drugs. This informative event opened parent's and families' eyes to the reality of drug usage among young people, and asked the question "do you pay attention to what's inside your child's bedroom? Thank you to Hillside Public Schools District Student Assistance Coordinator Ms. Mullins for coordinating this event. Thank you to our speakers: Monmouth University Professor of Criminal Justice Doug Collier, Hillside Police Department Lieutenant Cosimo Tripoli, and Hillside Police Department Detective Antoine Brown! Shout out to Superintendent Glover, the Hillside Board of Education Members, all Hillside Public Schools staff and students present!
