Greetings,
My name is Spencer Ruebke and I am the Elementary Principal at Hillsboro Elementary. We have kicked off the new school year and we have many new staff members that I’d like to introduce. Ms. Ranz is our new 5th grade teacher. Ms. McKinnon is our new 4th grade teacher. Mrs. Cossette is our new teacher at the colony school. Mrs. Wright is our new Kindergarten teacher. Mrs. Olson is our new school counselor. James is our new custodian, and Jessi is our new kitchen assistant. Many students and parents attended our back-to-school night in August, and we had a successful night getting prepared for school. The teachers have been busy the first few weeks building relationships with students and introducing curriculum to the classes.
Important September dates:
1st- no school
8th- Scout talks in the classrooms
10th- Early Release
22nd-26th- homecoming week
22nd- Pajama Day, Coronation at 2:30
23rd- Decades Day
24th- USA Day
25th- Class Color Day
26th- Burro Pride Day, Homecoming Parade at 1:30
Parent Reminder- Please drop your child off and pick them up at the door, and not in the classroom or hallways. This is a safety precaution, and we find the transition goes better when we follow this rule. Let’s make this part of the morning routine. Thank you for understanding!
