Board meetings are generally held on the second and fourth Monday of each month, beginning at 7:00 PM for worksessions and regular meetings. Meetings are rotated among the three schools. A schedule of all meetings and locations is listed on our district website. Meeting agendas are also posted on our website, at the three schools, in local newspapers, and at Borough Hall at least 48 hours prior to a meeting. For additional information, contact the Business Administrator or Dear Parents: Superintendent of Schools. Please check the district website www.hillsdaleschools.com for any Board of Education meeting changes. 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.
