We are cancelling any scheduled meetings for staff today. We will use today as a work day...only for those who can safely make it to school. If you cannot, please "flex" the day to a safer time. Weather permitting, we will have our "welcome back" session after lunch on Wednesday.
STAFF FEATURE FRIDAY | This Friday we want to shine the light on the High School Life and Environmental Science teacher, Maggie Schultz!
Maggie has been with the Hillsboro School District for the past two years! She used to work for the Sea Life Aquarium in Kansas City and her hobbies include scuba diving, running, and hanging out with her cat, Luna.
When asked why she loves working for the District, this is what she had to say:
"I love being a part of a community that cares so much and getting to be a part of so many awesome things!"
Thank you for all you do Maggie! #HSDGoTigers #TigerProud
District paraprofessionals attended a 2-day summit at CESA this week! Numerous sessions were offered that focused on academic and behavior support, mental wellness, data collection, Title 1 and special education services.
We value the highly qualified paraprofessionals we have here in Hillsboro! #HSDGoTigers
On Wednesday, August 29, the MS/HS will be handing out student packets, schedules, and Chromebooks during the Open House from 4:00 - 6:30 pm. Student packets can be picked up in the cafeteria. Parents must have the packets before they can pick up Chromebooks.
Anyone recognize these #HSDGoTigers? #TBT

Last week the School District of Hillsboro’s Board of Education unanimously approved two referendum resolutions. In the upcoming weeks, we will be sharing more information about this November 6 Referendum.

With school right around the corner, here is a reminder of passing rules regarding a stopped school bus in Wisconsin.
ALL lanes of traffic must stop for a stopped school bus! This applies both to vehicles approaching from the rear and from the opposing lanes unless the opposing lanes of a highway are divided with a center median. Let's keep our #HSDGoTigers safe!
The easiest way to someone's heart is through their stomach! These #HSDGoTigers loved spending time in the kitchen this summer!
Help us welcome Nancy Schaller to our #HSDGoTigers team as an administrative assistant!
Nancy is originally from Mauston, WI and her hobbies include watching sports, especially the Packers, Badgers and Brewers, she loves going for long walks and spending time with her family.
When asked why she is looking forward to working in Hillsboro, this is what she said:
"I like the small, close-knit atmosphere of this school. There is also a real sense of teamwork. Everyone is working towards the same goal - wanting the best for the students, their families and the community!"
Welcome Nancy, we are so excited to have you!
