We understand if we are late to move the cones at 2:45 on M,T,Th, and F and at 2:15 on Wed. PLEASE do NOT MOVE THE CONES BEFORE THESE TIMES. We often have classes that are out for a late recess, and we want to make the circle out front available until that time.

We appreciate your helpfulness in getting started with removal if we are running late moving the cones! Please observe the above times for removal. Someone should be out with the cart to pick them up. Thank you.

Hillside's philosophy is that students deserve to learn social skills right along with academics. We want our students to learn how to accept feedback gracefully, how to regulate their emotions appropriately, and how to negotiate skillfully with peers. We are committed to helping all our students to learn and grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
