Evan Johnson: My child didn't exactly fit into general education... Hillside has the staff and the patience to gift him with a very quality education. Additionally, the students really do participate in a lot of fun activities! If your student is ever considered for this program, parents, please do not hesitate. This is a great opportunity for your child.
The services offered to the children at this school are very limited. This school does everything they can to do as they see fit, exclude parent input.
