Hillsboro District and Curriculum
The goal of Hillsboro School District is to get students engaged, and keep them challenged, while ensuring all students leave the district with college-ready and career-ready skills. The district also believes that excellent teachers foster excellent academic achievement, and this is reinforced with focused and ongoing teacher training and professional development. In terms of social development, responsibility is a large part of the curriculum as well. Students take part in activities in which they identify their personal responsibilities, be they to do well in school or help out with chores at home.
We currently cover the following Hillsboro-area school district: Hillsboro School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Hillsboro District Curriculum
HDS have implemented the Common Core Standards, followed both state-wide as well as nationally. A Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, with funding from the U.S. Department of Education, has developed an assessment system based on the CCSS. This assessment system assures comprehensive accountability, but also a flexibility to select specific content, designed to bring out the best in each student.
Other academic programs offered in the district include Dual Language, Talented and Gifted, International Baccalaureate, and the introduction of STEM schools. Selected elementary schools throughout the district have transitioned into Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) focused schools. The goal of these schools is to use best practices for instruction to motivate students to participate and engage with cutting-edge learning opportunities.

Chalk Talk: How to Improve Community Services in Impoverished Areas
If you wanted to add a real sense of accomplishment to an ordinary planned family vacation, a wonderful option to consider is volunteer work in impoverished areas, either at home or abroad. With just a little ability to swing a hammer, you would be a welcome addition to any number of building projects in troubled areas, including but not limited to health clinics, orphanages, community centers, houses, or schools. With the understanding that your accommodations will be very basic on your volunteer mission, you and your family will leave knowing that you immediately and substantially added to the well-being and hope of a community of people in need. You’ll return home seeing the world through new, appreciative eyes, with the newfound belief that one person really can make a difference.
