On Thursday evening October 28th Hillside Academy hosted Trunk or Treat. The PTA sponsored this very successful event! The parking lots were full of decorated trunks giving out candy to excited critters, creatures and characters of all kinds. Students visited GISD's Rodney Reads bookmobile too. Thanks to all for your continued support and participation!
Every year librarians across Texas make a list of the 20 best books. Every student in grades 3,4 and 5 who reads 5 of the books from the current list gets to vote for their favorite. Students across the state will read and vote in January!
After a student has read one book from this year's list they need to fill out this form. When students have read 5 books and filled out this form for each book they will be invited to vote for their favorite!
