Everyday at Hillside Public Schools is an adventure! There's always interesting, interactive learning taking place no matter where you go. A prime example is the Culture Day which took place at Ola Edwards Community School today!

Shoutout to Ms. Talari for hosting this fun activity for her students!

Each year JROTC programs must conduct what is called a Service-Learning Project. Students are able to identify essential needs in their school or community and then decide on their approach. This year the JROTC program partnered with Hurden Looker Elementary School as they worked through their theme of Healthy Minds, Healthy Bodies! JROTC students (periods 1-3) and Peer Leadership (period 4) explained the importance of nutrition and physical fitness to the elementary students, and also cheered from the sidelines to encourage all who participated! Great work, JROTC & Hurden Looker Elementary!
