HV Update 12-20-2024
A message from your principal, Mrs. Stager
We wrapped up our last full week with a spirited pep rally!
There IS school on Monday and it's Pajama Day! Monday is an early dismissal day at 12:40 P.M. No lunch will be served. Please coordinate dismissal plans with your child and let the teacher or main office know of any changes.
Best,
Allison

Read-A-Thon
Hello Hillview Families,
We are excited to announce our first ever
Read-a-thon COMING SOON!
Save the Date!
Read-A-Thon will run from 1/6 through 1/24.
There will be mystery readers on zoom throughout the weeks of the Read-a-thon, including some familiar authors; plus, chances to win prizes once your student’s reading goals are met. Some top prizes will include librarian for a day, a Bookwormy home visit, and a gift certificate to Dave & Busters.
NOW FOR THE EXCITING PART….
If we meet our school-wide goal Mrs. Munro will be SLIMED in front of the whole school!!!
We are fundraising through the Read-a-thon for an outdoor reading garden outside the library, soft seating for the Media Center, and new books as well! Profits from this will go to these new, fun additions to Hillview.
Additional details will be emailed soon.

Do you own a small business, but not sure what your role could be? Even as a small business, a contribution would be greatly appreciated! Own a landscaping company? Possibly donate a fall cleanup or have a cookie business - maybe donate a certificate for 25 custom made cookies to compliment someone's event they host. The possibilities are endless and we would love to discuss them with you! Please reach out for more information.
