The Village Advanced Band had guest conductor, Nancy Russo, join their rehearsal this morning. Ms. Russo, a retired Hilton band director and current Nazareth University professor, helped get the students ready for their upcoming concert. The Village Advanced Band and Choruses have their winter concert on Dec. 13 at 7 p.m. at Hilton High School. Come on out to hear these fabulous student musicians!
On Friday, Village Elementary students celebrated JOY Day with fun holiday activities, like making ornaments, decorating cookies, playing holiday BINGO, and testing miniature Santa parachutes! MANY thanks go to all of the parent volunteers and especially to the High School Introduction to Teaching class for working with the first graders. It was a great way to kick off the holiday season!
In honor of Veteran’s Day, Cindy DiGiacco’s kindergarten class at Village had a special visitor via Zoom. Sergeant First Class Tim Brugger, who is stationed in Kuwait with the National Guard, showed students tanks and trucks, uniforms, and equipment. He also answered students’ questions that they prepared in their Writers’ Workshop. “The students were so engaged and his own daughters, sixth grader Isabel, third grader Makenna, and first grader Cassandra were able to share in the experience,” said DiGiacco. In addition to thanking Sergeant Brugger for his service, the class donated an ice cream sundae gift basket and pizza certificate to the family. Sergeant Brugger is the husband of Teacher Aide Tiara Brugger.
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!

Andy is described as welcoming & affirming by his new colleague. Kind & considerate since day one, he never makes the other person feel like they are inconveniencing him & always checks in in a way that shows he cares by listening carefully & being empathetic. Thank you, Andy!

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
