Ms. Zinstein's 4th-grade class at Ola Edwards Community School demonstrated exceptional behavior as they savored the weather while engaging in a relaxing moment with the School Social Worker, Mrs. Sanchez! The students learned deep breathing exercises as coping strategies during stressful moments. Thank you, Mrs. Sanchez and our Hillside Public Schools staff for cultivating social-emotional learning within and outside of our classrooms!

Ola Edwards Community School 5th and 6th graders were treated to an awesome assembly earlier this afternoon (3/18/2024)! U.S. Magistrate Judge, Mr. Jose Almonte, visited Ola Edwards Community School to discuss the importance of education in his career, and his incredible journey, from being unable to speak English, to sitting as a Judge in the highest court in New Jersey!
