Our Hillside Building Leadership Team surveyed our Hillside community to determine the values that our stakeholders feel are most important.  The core values of Respect, Courage and Curiosity were selected.  Each value was broken down to clear teaching points:
 
RESPECT:
  • I will show respect by honoring others’ differences with kindness.  
  • I will show respect by appreciating and caring for our school and community.
COURAGE:
  • I will act with courage by standing up for what is right, even when it is not easy.  
  • I will act with courage by taking risks as a learner, knowing that I am in a safe environment.
CURIOSITY:
  • I will be curious about my learning knowing that I can ask questions where my thoughts and ideas are valued.  
  • I will be curious in my exploration of new information and find the joy in learning.
Our core values are taught through classroom lessons and school-wide assemblies.  In addition, students are recognized for demonstrating core values at Hillside during lunch periods to further our students’ understanding of how to be respectful, courageous and curious.
