Hillside Manor

This school provides a very inclusive and a safe environment for all the students. The teachers are very friendly and helpful. The school keeps the family informed and updated about the day to day happenings. Each student gets individual attention. One of the best elementary school in the district.

The school seems to be improving with the new principal and assistant principal, and everything they are doing feels like it’s moving in the right direction. At the same time, I’ve noticed that the specials, like music, don’t seem to capture the students’ interest as much as they could, and it might help if the teacher took a more welcoming and friendly approach. The grading in music also doesn’t feel very fair, as many students seem to be receiving ‘N’s without parents being contacted or given feedback. I’ve also heard from several parents who share similar concerns about this class. On a positive note, the art teacher is wonderful and the gym teachers are doing a great job.
