I had a wonderful experience with Hillside Elementary and plan to send my youngest child there. My oldest who went their from grades 1-5 has continued to do really well. He did terrible in OPS his Kindergarten year where he was not provided opportunities for independant learning and meeting his potential that he did receive through HIllside. It is probably the poorest school in the district but I loved that he was exposed to diversity and could see we weren't alone in our financial struggles. He never told me or complained about being looked down on for not wearing the nicest clothes or trendy styles. Thank you Hillside for all you did for my son.

The class sizes are very appropriate with most who have student teachers. We moved into a new development and the school helped with transportation. This is a top of the line school with new technology and no expspense spared when it comes to your childs education. The staff is friendly and willing to make the best plan possible to assist your child in the classroom, at home or even with tutors. The principal was a teacher at this school and strives to have an amazing school with great scores. He sits on the PTA and listens to parent concerns, while providing great feedback. I would recommend this school to everyone I know.

Both of my boys love it here. Teachers are great. very accommodative.

We moved from NYC 6 years ago and started my daughter here. She is now in 7th grade and my son in 3rd grade. The entire ILS community is welcoming and supportive. The teachers are what make this school outstanding! My children have been taught and trained to be great human beings. I couldn't recommend this school more.

My daughter has gone to this school for the last 2 years. Not only are the teachers amazing, but it is a great learning environment in general. She has fun daily and is learning so much. She is actually excited to go to school and does not want to leave when I go to pick her up. 10/10 would recommend.
