School District of Hillsboro

Due to parking lot construction we are asking that students that drive to school enter at the MS/HS doors (near the office) tomorrow. MS/HS Students who ride the bus will enter at the Middle School doors.

Don't forget the first day of school is just around the corner! #HSDGoTigers

Fall Sports Announcement: After much discussion and thought, Hillsboro has decided to move forward with all fall sports in the regular fall season. Since the Scenic Bluffs Conference has moved football and volleyball to the alternative season in the spring, Hillsboro will be playing with Ridge and Valley Conference for football and volleyball only. Cross country will stay with the Scenic Bluffs Conference. Full game and meet schedules will be released as soon as they are finalized. Please feel free to contact Hilary Stanek with any additional questions. -- Hilary Stanek Activities Director Hillsboro School District Cell: 608-604-3241 hilary.stanek@hillsboroschools.org

Dear Hillsboro students/families, As you may have noticed we are in the final stages of resurfacing our MS/HS parking lot. We were on target to finish the project before Sept. 1. Unfortunately, following a mechanical issue with the paver on Thursday and now the significant rainfall we are getting, we will not be able to have the MS/HS parking lot resurfaced in time for the first day of school. Therefore, students will have to park off-site for the first days of the 2020-21 school year. We will update students daily on when they will be able to use the parking lot. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.

The Vernon County Health Department has released a Parent's Guide to COVID-19 and Schools, which you can access through the following link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JeTy6urROtHz4g_B_oUDe5C2mM0HDnrT/view?usp=sharing
