Hello Silver Hill Families,

Hope everyone is able to enjoy the cool fall weekend we are having.  It is a beautiful time to get outside and have some fun.  

I would like to thank grade3 students and staff for sharing their VOCABULARY PARADE on Friday.  The costumes and vocabulary words were all amazing! Nice job by all! Watch the school website for pictures coming soon!  

If you have time today, please  join TEAM HAVERHILL at Academy Lanes 725 S. Broadway Street Bradford, MA today Nov 2, 2019 at 1:45PM.as they kick off their READ and Thrive Book Drive which will run from Nov 3 – Dec 3 to raise money to distribute books to Haverhill children in grades PK-3!   Contact Kevin Burke, President of Team Haverhill for more information at info@teamhaverhill.org.

  3. Drop Off and Pick Up Reminders: we appreciate your help and consideration to keep all of the students safe!
    1. After dropping children, please LOOK before pulling out into the bus lane, they cannot stop quickly and are carrying some very precious cargo, our kids!

    3. Please do not drive into the semi circle bus drop-off and pick up area in the morning or afternoon.
    4. Please DO NOT park on the left side coming into the parking lot.  It makes it difficult for the buses to get through.
