I think all I need to say is that, my son, who goes to kindergarten at Hillside Grade, came home the other day and told my wife, "Mom, my teacher is a genius. She's taught us so much this year!" Straight from the source...

I recently moved to New Hyde Park from the best school district in Queens. I have to say I am beyond pleased with My daughters new school. I was fearful of moving them in the middle of the school year but Hillside Grade was so wonderful, teachers, and students, that it made the transfer so easy for them. They tell me everyday how much they love, love, love their new school. Added to that is they are both doing great with their studies.
