Hillside BOE Meeting - 9/24/2026

The Hillside Public Schools Board of Education held a meeting on September 24, 2026, focusing primarily on school community updates, student achievements, and policy enforcement such as dress code and cell phone usage. While the meeting included discussions on student and staff engagement, community outreach, and recognition of school safety awards, there was also mention of a resolution related to the rising costs of medical insurance for district employees. This resolution, aimed at addressing healthcare expenses, was noted as a significant topic under the finance agenda, with ongoing efforts to seek relief through legislative advocacy.
