HBP-Field Trip Form Needed

This year we will be doing an annual field trip release form. Please fill this out as soon as possible so students are able to participate in our field trips for Hillsboro Big Picture.


Este año haremos un formulario de autorización para excursiones anuales. Complete esto lo antes posible para que los estudiantes puedan participar en nuestras excursiones para Hillsboro Big Picture.

Cell Phones

Cell phones and other personal electronic devices such as headphones and earbuds are commonplace items in our daily lives. And while they do serve a useful purpose in certain circumstances and/or for certain students, in general they are disruptive to our learning environment.


Therefore, we are enacting tighter protocols and procedures for the times and places where cell phones and other personal electronic devices can and cannot be used. We are also detailing the consequences to students for violating these rules after first trying gentle reminders and redirection.


Students will be provided with guidelines specific to their classroom by each of their teachers. If there are questions about expectations for a certain class, students and/or their parents/guardians are encouraged to talk to teachers first. If additional information is needed, please speak to the principal.


We know this represents a bit of a change to past practice, but we all agree that limiting students’ access to cell phones and other personal electronic devices during the school day will not only enhance learning environments, but will also encourage students to build positive interpersonal relationships outside of social media.


Thank you very much for your partnership and support.

Student Parking

Please know that student parking will be limited this year. We will not be offering student parking passes until the last week of September.
