Mrs. Nagel’s 1st graders and Mr. Tunseth’s 5th graders meet once a week to read and work on comprehension. The 5th graders have been instructed to ask their partners questions about the books they read and help them to dig deeper in their reading. They also tie into the reading our Superhero character words; like kindness, integrity, sportsmanship, etc.
1st graders will read a book or two at their “just right” level to begin their time together. Then, the 5th graders read some awesome picture books from our library.
Hillsboro School will be virtual learning tomorrow, November 10th, due to the weather in our area. There will be no Veteran’s Day Program, no practices, and the School Board Meeting will be on Zoom. Stay safe.
Parents: With the projected weather tomorrow the elementary and high school teachers are preparing for a virtual learning day. The high school will use Google Classroom and the elementary teachers will send home packets for your children for tomorrows school work if we need to call it a virtual learning day.

Hillsboro Elementary School is HIRING! Looking to hire a new December college graduate.
Our elementary kitchen staff: Stevie, Kathy, and Lilly are the absolute best in providing fun memories and healthy food for these elementary students. We had the most delicious worms and eyeballs, creepy jello with rings, and jack-o-lantern oranges! Then for snack they made each kiddo a cupcake with cool colors! Yum!
In the Hillsboro Elementary Hallways:
Mrs. Nagel’s class read the book, “Biscuit”, by Alyssa Satin Capucilli. They read it in various ways. Mrs. Nagel read it to them first. Then, throughout the week, they echo read and choral read. Today, they finally got to partner read! Students enjoyed listening to their friend’s expressions and reading pace. Learning to read more independently is a goal that the new Bookworms curriculum pushes for in classrooms. Nicely done! 📚
