From the Principal
Hillendale families,
I hope you had a terrific Thanksgiving with your families! Thank you for your time and attention during our conferences last week. We love welcoming you all in to get to know you better!
Thank you again to our PTO for funding what many on our staff have described as their favorite assembly of all time, Benergy, a lesson on autism, kindness, and inclusion. We appreciate your generosity making events like this possible for our children and staff!
Have a great week!
