Dear Hill-Roberts Families,

We hope everyone has been enjoying the sunshine this Friday! 

Last night we welcomed incoming K-families to our Kindergarten Information Night. It was exciting to meet new families and to catch up with returning families. Having the PTO there and the book fair open was extra special; the community at Hill-Roberts is so positive and so strong - thank you to all our families and our PTO!

Again, March and April are busy months at Hill-Roberts:

  • All of March - March Mathness Competition 

  • All of March/Early April - 2nd Grade Swim Lessons

  • Week of 3/18 - Kindness Week (with PTO)

  • Week of 4/1 - 4th and 3rd Grade ELA MCAS

  • Week of 4/8 - Read Across Hill-Roberts

A very special thank you to the PTO, our family volunteers (of even former students!), and, in particular, Dr. Beth Dimond (and her husband) for a very successful Book Fair!

Sincerely,

Dr. Paul Madden, Principal

Mrs. Nora Hassan, Assistant Principal
