Halloween
Ms. D. was Hilldale's superhero! October 31 was a spooktacular event at Hilldale School. Teachers and students alike were dressed in their best costumes ready to scare the next unsuspecting victim. Students paraded around the playground to show off their costumes for their friends and family. Afterwards, everyone rushed inside for goodies, treats, crafts and games at the spectacular parties, organized by the always wonderful Hilldale parents.

Read Across America
All grades at Hilldale School joined together to participate in the Nationwide program “Read Across America” honoring the great Dr. Seuss. Celebrity readers included Montiville's mayor Deb Neilson and the interim director of curriculum, Bonnie Fullam. The day was a huge success!

Special Friends' Day
Hilldale
welcomes our special friends.
During Special Friends' Day our students invite someone who is special to them to come in and share their school day. They participate in a variety of activities together throughout the morning. This special event is a huge success for everyone who is involved! Grandparents are Special Friends too!

“TURF

On
Wednesday,
December

2008,
members
of

visited Hilldale

treated
the

Turf
the

Township
High
School.
Connor
Meytrott,

at
Hilldale,
collected
close
to
$2,600.00
from

enabled
us
to
receive
the
sundaes.
Everyone
was
happily
surprised
to
receive
the
treats.
In
addition,
Hilldale
received
a
“Great

plaque
for
the
front
hall.
Students
wrote
thank
you
letters,
which
were
mailed
to
Mrs.
Linda
Gannon,

She
will
share
