Nurses’ Clothing Closet

Our Hill Nurses are in need of boys’ pants and shorts in all sizes.  Hill Dillos, please look through your closets and dressers and send in bottoms you’re ready to pass along!  Just drop them off in the office or with our Nurses.  Thank you!

Lunchroom Helpers Needed

THANK YOU to all of the parents who have helped in the lunchroom this year. Hill is in the process of hiring another monitor, but we are down to only two official monitors at this time. We could really use some help during the busiest shift, 11:30am-12:30pm daily in the cafeteria. Many students still need help opening packages, getting condiments, etc. The children love seeing parents in the cafeteria, so please consider volunteering if you can!  Reach out to Kristen with any questions at volunteercoordinator@hillelementary.com. Sign up to volunteer for a shift HERE! All volunteers must register/complete paperwork prior to volunteering, which you can do HERE!
