A.P. Morris Early Childhood Center is looking for support for their All for Lunch and Lunch for All initiative! The goal of this initiative is to help pay off student lunch debts, and to create a reserve of funds for the school so that if a child comes through the lunch line without funds, their lunch is fully covered. This ensures that all students have access to a nutritious lunch regardless of their family's financial situation. Even a small donation can make a powerful impact for our students! With just $15 you can pay for 5 students' lunches. So please join us in our mission to ensure every child gets the nutrition they deserve! Your generosity will make a significant difference and empower us to bring about positive change. All for Lunch and Lunch for All!

Happy Thanksgiving, from Hillside Public Schools!

Tomorrow, Friday, November 22, 2024, marks the kickoff of our Scholastic R.E.A.L. Mentorship Program! Please see the emailed letter describing the program commencing tomorrow, as our mentors read to students across the district once a month!
In Mrs. Corrothers' first-grade class at A.P. Morris Early Childhood Center, students used sky observation charts as data about daytime and nighttime hours on two different days! Students used snap cubes to represent and compare the lengths of daytime and nighttime hours. Scholars then used a bar graph they analyzed to determine what causes daytime to be longer or shorter!
