Hillside High School

Islamic Heritage Month, designated for January each year in New Jersey, was established following Governor Phil Murphy’s signing of a joint resolution (SJR105/AJR194) on April 29, 2023. It recognizes the diverse contributions of Muslim Americans to arts, culture, education, politics, and science. It also aims to foster greater understanding and unity by highlighting Islamic traditions and the role of Muslim Americans in building communities. Hillside Public Schools District stands with our diverse community to recognize, celebrate, and educate on our Muslim community's rich culture and cultural importance. We all must strive to foster understanding, appreciation, and unity among our community, and to highlight the tapestry of Muslim heritage within. Through collaboration and engagement, we aim to build bridges of mutual respect, breaking down stereotypes and promoting a more inclusive and interconnected society. Hillside Public Schools District stands united with our families, cultures, and heritage, making our community unique and proud! #hillsidenj #hillsidepublicschools #muslimheritagemonth #newpride #newpathways #newpossibilities

Not only were our young students read to, but they also got to bring home a new book to add to their home libraries!

This past Monday, December 9th, 2024, the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest took 45 Hillside High School students, along with Ms. Agoglia, Mr. Colon, Mr. Gelowitz, and Ms. Ullrich to Washington, D.C. to visit the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial! In addition to speaking with the daughter/granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, a select few were even allowed to meet and talk with a survivor from Auschwitz and may be featured on an NBC special commemorating the 80th Anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz! Students were able to learn and discuss antisemitism and then compare it to the racial discrimination during Dr. King's time and now. #hillsidenj #hillsidepublicschools #holocaustmuseum #memorial #martinlutherking #newpride #newpathways #newpossibilities
