Hillside Learning and Behavior Center EI Program is currently located at Martin Public Schools 1556 Chalmers Street, Martin.   

The Emotionally Impaired (EI) Program serves pre-school, elementary, middle, and high school students.  The mission of the program is to help students better understand their behaviors, make more successful choices, and to return to their local school districts.  These students are capable of completing academic work, but have allowed their behaviors to interfere with their own, and other students’ learning.  All of the EI classrooms focus on these negative behaviors, by encouraging and reinforcing appropriate behaviors of the students.  A firm, but caring manner, characterizes staff interactions, holding each child responsible for his or her own behaviors.
