Shout out to Hillside High School scholar, Harmony Reed! Through Hillside Public Schools' 2024 summer programs, Harmony had the privilege of attending the Write on Sports (WoS) program held at Montclair State University @montclairstateu.

Not only did Harmony's teachers at Write on Sports invite her back next year, but they also chose Harmony to be a presenter at the Write on Sports Annual Awards Banquet held on October 9th, 2024! Harmony was introduced by the well-known sports legend, Peter King. She also had the honor of giving a speech & presenting the 2024 Literacy Champion Award to CBS sports commentator Ian Eagle! Harmony and her family were given the opportunity to dine & converse with these legends & their families as well as network with several others. Great work Harmony, Hillside Public Schools, Montclair State University, and thank you to the Write on Sports Program! @writeonsports

Hillside Innovation Academy (HIA) scholars participated in a presentation today facilitated by the Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals (OBAP), a nonprofit organization dedicated to the education and advancement of minorities in all aviation and aerospace careers! The program offers students a hands-on experience of learning aviation history, fundamentals of aerodynamics, the role of government in aviation, and the many careers available in the aerospace field! This is just the start of HIA's collaboration with OBAP and Ascent to Equality as the panelists (Captain Gabrielle Harding, Captain Peter Henry, Flight Attendant and Drone Pilot, Ms. Bridgette Fabor, and Aerospace Engineer/Aircraft Maintenance Technician, Mr. Aaron Allen) pledged to sponsor 4 HIA applicants to the flight simulation program scheduled for Spring 2025!

On Wednesday, October 2nd, 2024, Hillside High School students enrolled in the dual enrollment class with NJIT, Forensics Science (FRSC) 201, participated in a "Forensics Science Day on Campus" event! Students participated in two mock crime scenes and investigated the "crimes" by doing an initial intake, sketching, note-taking, and collecting and preserving evidence. Afterward, students took a scavenger hunt-style tour of the campus and visited the AR/VR lab where they interacted further with virtual crime scenes! Back in the classroom, students worked together to document their work in a crime scene report! Great work Hillside High School scholars!
