• Goal achieved! Hilltop students and families donated more than 500 items to be given to Mendham-Chester Interfaith Food Pantry. Thank you for helping us achieve this goal! Mr. Mucha will be getting slimed at a whole school assembly next Tuesday!
• Car Line Refresher- Please do not have your child exit from the drivers side during drop-off. Students can begin entering the front of the building from the car line at 8:30am. Please make sure to drive at a low speed upon entering the school drive-way and be aware of your surroundings in order to keep everyone safe.
• Please do not park in the handicap spot in the parking lot unless you have a handicap placard.

Hilltop Students are becoming experts in applying their skill knowledge to decoding one, two, and even three-syllable words fluently! It is essential to practice these skills in sentences, reading passages, and books on a daily basis. Fluent reading connects directly to reading comprehension which is the ultimate goal!

The future is in full bloom here in Mendham Borough, and we are thrilled to invite you to the HSA’s 2024 Fundraiser! Join us for a parent's night out on Friday, April 5th from 7-10 pm at Roxiticus Golf Club for “Blossoming Our Future.” This incredible event will be a great way to bring parents together from Hilltop and Mountainview Schools. It will include a can’t miss silent auction, 50/50, cocktails, passed appetizers, music and entertainment as we raise money for the Mountain View Middle School Outdoor Learning Center. The goal is to provide a grant in the amount of $10,000 to make the Outdoor Learning Center more conducive to holding classes outdoors for our children. Anything raised beyond this will go towards supporting other HSA programs. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit the HSA website here.
