Dear Hillside Families:

Happy New Year and welcome back to Hillside.  We certainly hope you and your family had the opportunity to “sharpen the saw” during the winter break.  This phrase is often used by Stephen Covey, the author of the best selling goal setting book, “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People” What he means by this is that we all do our best work when we’re well rested.   We started the year with a bang at our assembly.  The Mad Scientist Group came in and gave a fabulous, but scientific presentation.  The following week we had Ms Korlek-Spicer and Division give a performance on science experiments and the upcoming Science Fair.. 

It will be busy during the next few weeks.  Students  have started using the class set of laptops that arrived prior to the winter break.   It is impressive to see how proficient they have become on the laptops only after a few lessons.  Our grade 4 and 7 students will be writing the FSA exams in early February.  Kindergarten registration is also just around the corner.  If you know of any families with children born in 2003, kindly remind them to register their child at their catchment school during the first two weeks of February.  Other events that will be popping up are:  the start of the volleyball season for our 7 teams, Books for Bedtime, a visit from authoress Annette Lebox, and a few spirit days organized by our peer counselors.

During the first four months of the year we accomplished much and now we have the opportunity to continue the great work that was started in the first term.  The staff is ready and raring to go.   We would like to encourage our students to do their best in all their studies and participate in the upcoming extra curricular activities of their choice.  We look forward to a successful second term and should you have any questions or concerns please feel free to give us a call at the school.

Sincerely

Ray Jung

Principal
