Online Verification
Verifying your student information is very important for parents/guardians to complete each year for their currently enrolled student(s) in the Hillsboro School District. Having accurate contact information for parents is critical for communicating school and district news, as well as attendance and emergency notifications. Online verification allows you to update information such as:
- Address and contact information
- Emergency contacts
- Parent/student relationship information
- Vaccination information
- Digital resources consent form (important to continue student use of digital resources such as Google Classroom)
How do I access Online Verification?
You will need a ParentVUE account and access to a computer or mobile device.
Don't have a ParentVUE account? Contact your student's school for an activation key. Additional ParentVUE information can be found here.
Parent Group Meeting
Dear HOA K-8 and Homeschool Partnership Families,
We are excited to invite you to our inaugural HOA Parent Group meeting on Wednesday, September 25th, from 5:30 to 6:30 PM at Tamarack Elementary. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community and discuss how we can support our students’ education and enrich their school experience.
Parent involvement is crucial to our children’s success. By participating in this meeting, you'll have the chance to share ideas, collaborate with other parents, and contribute to initiatives that directly impact our students’ learning environment. Your voice and perspective are invaluable in shaping a positive and supportive educational atmosphere.
We look forward to seeing you there and working together to make a meaningful difference in our children’s educational journey.
Best regards,
Shannon Lawson (Freudenthal)
