Groundbreaking Ceremony Information
On September 11, Hillside will celebrate its construction efforts and the fact that we are on our way to having a new building! The ceremony starts at 2:20pm on our blacktop area. We will have some selected students who will help to shovel some ceremonial dirt. Families are welcome, and we will also take lots of photos to commemorate this wonderful event.
