6th Grade End of Year Events

2021-22 Instructional Models--Choices!

In 2021-22, we plan to offer full-time, in-person instruction to all students at either their neighborhood school or the school from which they have received a transfer approval. This is the default assumption for every student who is not currently enrolled at Hillsboro Online Academy (HOA).

Students who transferred to HOA rather than participate in Comprehensive Distance Learning (CDL) or the Hybrid Model in 2020-21, received a separate communication letting them know they will be returned to their neighborhood school unless they request a new transfer to HOA for 2021-22.

Families that would prefer their student continue in the CDL model (available for grades K-8 only) are asked to complete the HSD transfer application no later than Friday, June 4, so we can staff that option appropriately.

For more information, please refer to last Thursday’s communication and its embedded video.

If you are moving (or have moved) outside of the Hillsboro School District please be sure to let your teacher know and return your child's Chromebook and charging cord on June 17th, the last day of school!

We will also be collecting Chromebooks and charging cords from graduating 6th graders as well on June 17, 2021!

Monday, June 14th

Group 1: Kinder & K/1
Group 2: 2nd grade
Group 3: 1st grade

Tuesday, June 15th & Thursday, June 17th

A virtual field day will be posted for students in CDL and at home

Unfortunately, family members are unable to join us this year due to COVID restrictions. We will take lots of pictures and post them!

Clap Out for 6th graders

A yearly Imlay tradition includes having our 6th graders exit the building for their last day of in-person attendance to the cheers and applause of our entire school in a "6th grade Clap Out!" We are so excited to be able to host this event this year! We will be repeating this twice so every hybrid 6th grader will have the opportunity to participate.

Parents wanting to cheer on the 6th graders:

Be ready at 12:45 pm!
Line up along Imlay Ave.
Stand in the grass please - leave the sidewalk clear for runners and a 6 foot social distancing zone
Pick up your student at the regular 6th grade pick-up location after the clap out.
