Hello,
My name is Spencer Ruebke and I am the Elementary Principal at Hillsboro Elementary. In the month of February, we continued with our “Energy Bus” themed assemblies. The topic was “love your passengers” for the month of February. We also had parent teacher conferences and a book fair- both which were well attended. As we look forward to March, our library has some fun activities planned such as: March Madness Book Tournament, DEAR reading, and various dress up days. It is the time of year where many students have been cooped up inside for too long with their peers, and I have seen an uptick in some unkind behaviors. At school, we continue to emphasize respectful and positive interactions, and a gentle reinforcement of these values at home can go a long way in helping students navigate their friendships and daily interactions. Thank you so much!
Important March dates:
March 13th- early dismissal
March 20th- no school
March 21st- no school
Parent Reminder- We will be outside for recess as much as possible. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather. If you’re missing clothing items, encourage your child to look through the lost and found items located in the hallway near the elementary office.
