Hurden Looker Elementary School's 4th grade students competed in the World Wide Math Academics Cup Competition! Over 250 schools and over 8000 students participated in this competition. Hurden Looker went as high as 6th place by the end of the school day but was knocked back to 11th place by the evening (Some schools continued to play after hours). Regardless, Hillside Public Schools is incredibly proud of our Hurden Looker students!
Shoutout to the National Training Network (NTN), a data-driven professional development company that is currently working with our Hillside Public Schools Elementary School Math teachers! 3rd to 5th-grade mathematics teachers were provided hands-on, content, and standards-based training at Ola Edwards Community School over the last two weeks, as seen in the following photos. NTN will be working with Hurden Looker, Ola Edwards, and Deanna Taylor Academy teachers until the end of the school year! Thank you, Superintendent Glover, Dr. Bevere, Rita Della Valle, Dr. Tina Powell, and the National Training Network (NTN) for making this all possible for our wonderful instructors.

On January 13, 2023, during the Hillside Public School District's Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of celebration, A Day of Service Drive was occurring in the Hillside High School cafeteria! Students from Hillside Innovation Academy, W.O.K. Middle School, and Hillside High School assembled to sort items and build care packages. The entire Hillside community supported this initiative. All schools in our district, the Hillside Education Association, and the AT&T pioneers generously donated socks, scarves, hats, gloves, combs, and brushes to create care packages for the homeless! On January 24, 2024, Hillside High School students will partner with Berniece's Place to hand out care packages at the Elizabeth Coalition to House the Homeless Annual Service Fair. This event was organized by Superintendent Glover, Ms. Harris, Ms. Powell, Vice-Principals Rosalind Bartholomew and Obinna Emenaka, and the A.P. African American Studies class.
