ALSO, check out the new Hilton CSD Art Dept. website at https://sites.google.com/ga.hiltoncsd.net/hilton-csd-art/home.
It features recaps of all the events our students participated in this year, descriptions of courses and programs, a lot of great pictures, plus an archive of previous years’ events.
Last week Merton Williams 8th graders got the chance to see some great sights-both in our area and some not so close. About 230 students spent three days visiting Gettysburg and Washington, DC while another 30 went to the Seneca Park Zoo, the Memorial Art Gallery and Genesee Country Village and Museum.
Special thanks to the advisors and chaperones who put in so much work to make these educational trips possible, and to the Hilton Alumni Association whose generous grants helped support a portion of the expenses for individual students.
