The third grade Challenge Group at Northwood had a special visitor via Zoom this week – Sara McAllister, a research mechanical engineer at the Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory in Montana. McAllister's research interests include understanding fundamental combustion and heat transfer processes related to the spread of wildfires. Students prepared questions and were excited to learn more about her career and how her work has helped communities deal with wildfires.
“During our Challenge Group sessions, students have enjoyed researching and journaling about their amazing experiences chasing storms around the country,” said Melanie Klock, REACH teacher. “They have traveled virtually to Louisiana to witness a hurricane, Minnesota to see a blizzard, California to see a wildfire, and then Kansas for our last storm, a tornado.”




Please note that Tuesday, Oct. 31 is a half day session for ALL students K-12. The printed calendar sent to homes incorrectly states that it is a half day for K-6. Students will arrive home approximately 4 hours earlier than normal.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our student & staff volunteers, community groups, and to those who donated food & clothing, recycled electronics & brought their documents for secure disposal during this year’s Make a Difference Day on Saturday. We are so proud of how our community comes together every year to #MakeADifference! And let’s not forget a shout out to Wegmans Latta Rd. for providing our volunteers with breakfast & lunch!

Hilton CSD joins the digital commemoration #RemembertheSky as we mark the 22nd anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. This digital commemoration is inspired by the clear blue sky that was present in New York City & across the country on 9/11, as well as by Spencer Finch’s art installation in the 9/11 Memorial Museum. His artwork, “Trying to Remember the Color of the Sky on That September Morning,” is comprised of 2,983 watercolors — each a unique shade of blue — a tribute to the enormity of collective loss and the individuality of each of those who were taken from us far too soon. #neverforget911

Hilton students are eating local! Each month, our Food Service staff will choose days where the lunch menu will feature NYS products & food from our local farms. The grant funded program, titled NYS Farms to Schools, is a win-win for schools, NYS businesses & farms!


And we're off! To a great school year that is! We're so happy to welcome back our students and staff. As you can see, there were plenty of smiles, hugs & high fives to go around! Thank you to our parents and guardians for all of your support! ❤ #HiltonBack2School #Welcoming #Affirming
