Good Luck Coach Farrar!
Thank you to everyone who came by to wish Coach Farrar luck as he moves on to his new adventure as a US History Teacher at East Lit. High School! What an amazing group of supportive teachers we have here at Hillsboro who helped get him started on classroom supplies!
With that note, be patient with me the next few weeks as I have to go through the interview process with a long list of clerks who want to claim the hashtag #likeaburro. My phone & email is currently exploding with request. This vacancy will be assisted by Library Service, Myself, & Dr. Pelham, to insure we are meeting the needs of the Library Program here at Hillsboro.

Overtime Tuesday & Thursday!
Overtime is the opportunity for students to receive support from teachers after school. The majority of the students who use overtime, choose to be there. There are those students who have been assigned to overtime from the principal or by a teacher for academic intervention. If you believe you have students who would benefit from an assigned overtime, please follow directions in the link below. You can always encourage attendance to overtime to work with a teacher to help in different contents including Math, World Language, & IB.
Overtime is Tuesdays & Thursdays this year between 2:20-3:20.
I NEED COMPUTERS FOR MY CLASS!!!
Materials Request
Limitless Libraries
Educator Accounts: All educator pins will be reset to 2015
All educators will need to set their hold location to their school; it will not default to their school location
Activation is no longer required
PLEASE add your email addresses to your accounts to get notices of overdues.
Make sure your delivery location is set for Hillsboro
More information will come later this month regarding staff members who need an educator account to be created
School Delivery:
Educators can request items beginning August 6
Students can request items beginning August 10
Those already in the system should have no trouble, but we may not have all new student and educator info right away.
Student Login is their student ID and their birthdate in a 4 digit number. A birthdate of Sept 8th would have a PIN # 0908
Teacher Logins are their employee number and the PIN # would be 2015
NPL Summer Challenge: Just like last year, students can return their NPL Summer Challenge logs to the Library in order to receive prizes.
You can accept logs through Monday, August 17.
Teachers who would like to promote this, I have forms in the library. Easy 10 minute activity that can have them reviewing how they have utilized the library this Summer. ANY Burro could fill this out and receive a prize, it's that easy.
Student Access
How Do Student’s Login to Computers:
Username is typically their First & last name
And their password is their Student ID or their password that they used last
New Students & Students who didn’t login last year will need to sign the AUP. These directions are found here. If there is a struggle, you can send student to library (please wait till Monday).
My Laptop Won’t Let Me Login: Info Sheet (This is only for Teachers)
How Do Student’s Login to Blackboard:
Student ID for both
How Do Student’s Login to Office 365:
Same Username & password when they login to computers, except they login with their email address. So if the student’s name is Jane Doe, and their Username is janedoe, then their email will be janedoe@mnpsk12.org and that is what they will use to login to Office 365.
Here is an info sheet that you can share with students to help login: Office 365 Info Guide
