Hillside dad Mr. Helstowski was stationed in Antarctica last month. He has donated the flag that was flown on the South Pole to Hillside! The flag will be displayed in the lobby next to the flag he brought back for us from Iraq.

 

Hillside students collected 92 toys that were donated to Toys for Tots and over 100 hats, gloves, mittens, scarves, and socks to be donated to the Northeast Parent and Child Society. Thank you for all donations and Happy Holidays to all!
