    Introducing Mrs. Rubino:
     
    This is my 28th year teaching at Hillside and I love my job very much!  I have taught kindergarten, first grade and second grade while at Hillside and I am so excited to be teaching first grade again this year.  I have taken two classes of kindergartners to first grade with me and one class of first graders to second grade with me.  This is called looping and I truly enjoy the looping experience.
     
    Hillside is a very special place for me.  Not only do I love the Hastings community, but I also met my husband while teaching at Hillside my first year.  We have two daughters.  Talia is a senior at Middlebury College and Jaime is a freshman at University of Maryland.
