We are going to kick School Board Appreciation Week off with a bang by featuring some of our amazing school board members! Today we will be featuring Jenny Hynek!
Jenny is a native of Reedsburg, but has happily lived in Hillsboro for nearly 16 years. She is married to Steve Hynek and they are the parents of three sons. Thomas and Jack are freshman and Samuel is in 6th grade. She has a BA from Luther College and an MA in Education from Viterbo University. This year marks her 25th year as a public school educator in the School District of Reedsburg!
When asked about her time as a Hillsboro school board member, this is what she had to say:
"I am in my third term (9 years) on the Hillsboro school board. I enjoy celebrating successes in our school district as well as enjoy the challenge of problem solving and the opportunity to provide excellent educational experiences for our students. I see serving on the board as a natural extension of my passion for public education. All kids are deserving of the very best strategies, resources, and teachers possible. The most exciting thing happening in HSD these days and everyday is the amazing work of our teachers and their students. There is incredible learning and achievement happening in Hillsboro schools. Go Tigers!"
Thank you so much for everything you do Jenny. You're truly a blessing! #HSDGoTigers #TigerProud
There's nothing more fun than a science lab! #HSDGoTigers #SCIENCE
Mrs. Olson's US History 9 classes attempted their first Breakout Box of the year titled Historical Mastermind!
Students had to work in groups to save the world by solving several puzzles to open a variety of locks. A few groups successfully "saved the world" when they opened the last box that contained the key, stopping the machine from ending the world! #HSDGoTigers #Creativity
Thank you to H-Club for purchasing Homecoming T-shirts for all the high school students! Everyone looked awesome! #HSDGoTigers

Our Middle School FBLA Officers have been hard at work this year!
They have been getting ready for the Middle School Fall Formal this Friday and then their focus will be on The Leadership Conference in Madison taking place October 12!
These #HSDGoTigers will attend special presentations and workshops that will focus on leadership skills to get the chapter pumped and ready for the new year! Then, before the month of October gets away, the middle school students will be assisting the high school FBLA members with a Haunted Maze to raise money for our local food pantry. Stay tuned for more details!
If you're interested in joining, students should see Mrs. Gibbons or an officer for a membership form before November 1st.
Flu shots are scheduled for Nov 8th! Forms will be going home at the end of October so keep an eye on your mailbox! #HSDGoTigers
Let the fundraising begin!
The sixth through twelfth graders will be participating in a friendly competition this week called penny wars. The objective is to bring in as much loose change as possible by the end of the week and the class with the most change wins!
All the proceeds will be donated to local flood victims and Brunners will match the total amount that is raised! #HSDGoTigers #GivingBack
As part of the November 6, 2018 referendum, the School District of Hillsboro is seeking approval for $3.7 million that will go towards facility improvements.
Among the improvements is the replacement of the Middle/High School boilers. The white boilers were installed with the construction building in 1964-65 with an estimated life expectancy of 30 years. These boilers run at about 70% efficiency. With approval, boilers like those installed in the elementary school in 2014 (blue) will be installed. The new boilers are expected to run at about 88% efficiency!
