I think that we would all agree that it is not easy being a child today, which makes it even more difficult to be a parent. As a parent myself, I can understand the emotions and concerns you often feel regarding your child. Therefore, I can assure you that our entire staff will be committed to providing all the children of Hillsdale an outstanding educational experience. However, educating our children will be a responsibility that we all need to share in. Please be active and engage your child in conversation about school and maintain ongoing positive communication with your child’s teachers.
