School Violence Awareness Week flyer

Hillside Elementary School will observe School Violence Awareness Week from Monday, October 19, through Friday, October 23. Throughout the week, students will take part in age-appropriate lessons focused on creating a safe, caring, and respectful school community.

Teachers will talk with students about treating one another with kindness and respect, including everyone and being a good friend, and being part of a safe and caring school community.

The week will also feature two special dress-up days:

  • Monday, October 19: Wear blue to represent peace, calm, and kindness as we work together to make our school a safe and caring place for everyone.
  • Friday, October 23: Wear your favorite hat as we put bullying aside and show that kindness, respect, and inclusion are always in style.

These dress-up days help recognize and promote our commitment to kindness, respect, and safety.
