We have enough photos from Pink Out Day to post about it for weeks on end, it's safe to say it was a massive success here at Hillside Public Schools! Here are just a FEW images of students and staff from each school in our district, as well as the Board Office. The best pink-out-attired school hasn't been awarded yet, it's a hard decision, but how are you liking the pink spirit from last Friday? :)

Students in Ms. Gayle-Spencer's 8th grade Science V-lab class at W.O.K. learned about the energy of motion by engineering a balloon car! They tested how mass and velocity affect the motion of a test “dummy” hit by their engineered pendulum! So cool! #hillsidenj #hillsidepublicschools #science #vlab
The following photos come from W.O.K. Middle School! Ms. Giro’s Multilingual Learners are engaged in comparing and contrasting character development within two different texts. Great work, learners!

There are ways that you can help to promote awareness and show support for World Mental Health Day:
Talk about mental health issues with others, especially children if they are showing signs of depression or anxiety.
Attend events in your town by checking your county’s calendar.
Donate to mental health organizations or charities that provide support and fund research.
Volunteer your time with organizations that provide help to those who are suffering from mental health issues.
There sometimes is a stigma or discrimination in communities for individuals who have mental health issues, which causes many individuals not to seek out the help that they may need. There is no need for anyone to go untreated. There are many services available.
If you are having thoughts of suicide
If you need mental health-related crisis support
If you are worried about someone else
Please call or text 988 or visit the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline chat to connect with a trained crisis counselor.
