It was a MAGnificent opportunity for all the fourth graders in the district to visit the Memorial Art Gallery last week. The MAG was gracious enough to provide free admission for the students so everyone could attend. Here are some pictures from one of the field trips:

You've probably heard the expression a rose between two thorns-is this the opposite of that? Spikes paid a visit to Hilton today to meet his friend Crimson (and Mr. Warren) to work on promotion for HCSD Night with the Red Wings on May 16th. Stay tuned for more details!

Congratulations to Hilton seniors Joe Piperni and Jack Smith for receiving the Peter R. Marsh Foundation's Silent Servant Scholarship Award. This scholarship is awarded to only 400 students nation-wide to recognize students who have exhibited public service in the local community and act as role models for their peers.

Ladies and gentlemen, presenting your 2024-25 Section V Class A Cheerleading Champions-The Hilton Cadets!






History came alive today at Northwood thanks to the students who make up Team Serenka/Weinstein. They put together a wax museum filled with notable figures from our past like Anne Frank, Rosa Parks and George Washington and from our present like Josh Allen and Christiano Ronaldo. All the subjects were chosen based on how they reflect one of the IB Learner traits; principled, reflective, balanced, caring, communicator, inquirer, knowledgeable, open-minded, and risk-taker. You can see more pictures from the museum here: https://hiltonschools.smugmug.com/2024-2025/Northwood/Wax-Museum

Earlier this week students at QUEST noticed some rabbit tracks in the snow. They followed them and discovered a hole in the ground that the bunny was calling home. Wanting to do whatever they could to keep their neighbor safe, the three girls marked off the area and then made signs asking people to respect the rabbit's home. Great job Leah Marie DeLucia,
Gianna Fross, and Evelyn Bronson!
