Message From The Principal

Welcome to Hillside High International School! For nearly 30 years, we have proudly educated secondary school students, with over 1,000 graduates excelling in Cambridge International IGCSEs and A Levels, many advancing into distinguished careers. Our alumni include Dr. Nsereko Christopher, Dr. Kagoda, and Fcca Rudra.

Our academic philosophy prioritizes intrinsic motivation and skills-based learning over rote memorization. In today’s information-rich world, teachers act as facilitators, equipping students with critical thinking, research, and communication skills. We emphasize discernment to help students navigate information critically, combating issues like fake news.

Hillside fosters curiosity, respect, inclusivity, and equality, valuing every community member. Small class sizes and a supportive environment encourage collaboration and exploration. We work closely with parents as partners in nurturing students’ potential, whether in academics, sports, performing arts, or other interests.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Hillside family!

Cliff Green
Principal
