Hillsboro High School

We hope this message finds you well! As we move into the final stretch of the school year, we want to take a moment to share an important update regarding our school calendar. The last day of school for students will be Thursday, May 29th. We appreciate all the hard work, dedication, and support from our students, staff, and families throughout the year, and we’re excited to finish strong! For those interested in summer school, sessions will run from June 3rd through June 27th. More details will be shared soon.

Good evening, We want to provide an update regarding the situation. The source of the leak has been located, and crews are actively working to correct the issue. At this time, we plan to HAVE school tomorrow - Wednesday, March 12. However, we want to be transparent that, despite the our best efforts, unforeseen challenges can arise. Our team will be up early in the morning checking water pressure to ensure that restroom facilities are fully operational. If conditions change, we will notify you as soon as possible. If you do not receive a call in the morning indicating otherwise, please plan for school as scheduled. Please bring bottled water. The city will be under a boil order. We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this issue. Sincerely, Dr. Jon Isaacson Superintendent

Hillsboro R-III School District – Snow Day Announcement Due to inclement weather, the district will be CLOSED to all students and staff on Wednesday, February 19, 2025. There will be no school and no activities. Stay safe and warm!

❄️Snow Day Announcement – Tuesday, February 18, 2025 ❄️ Due to the forecasted winter storm and out of an abundance of caution, there will be NO SCHOOL in the Hillsboro R-III School District on Tuesday, February 18, 2025. The storm is expected to impact our area midday, and given the district’s geographic size and the time required for buses to complete afternoon routes, this decision ensures all students and staff can be safely home before conditions deteriorate. Announcing this closure the night before allows families time to plan, with safety as our top priority. Stay safe and enjoy the snow day!

Happy School Resource Officer Appreciation Day to our City of Hillsboro Police Officers: Officer Dean Rodgers and Officer Shelby Cornett! 🚓🚨Thanks for all you do - Keeping our kiddos and campus safe! 💙

Congratulations to the January Staff of the Month for being Persistent, Mr. Billy Reece! 💙 "He has been working very hard to make intensive tutoring and freshmen focus groups work well. He has been asking for feedback and is really trying to make it the most effective it can be. I think it is very beneficial for the students." "Billy is persistent, whether it's a troubled student he's trying to reach, a situation he's trying to mediate, or new ways to make the school better."

⚠📣 BUS 11 is running 20-25 minutes late (JH/HS) this morning. Students will NOT be marked tardy - and will have the opportunity to eat breakfast. We apologize for the delay.
