The Hillsboro School District 1J is a unified school district located in Hillsboro, Oregon, United States. The district operates 26 elementary schools, four middle schools, and four high schools. Founded in 1851, the school district covers Hillsboro, Scholls, Reedville, North Plains, West Union, and other area communities. Total enrollment as of the 2019–2020 school year is 20,269 students, the fourth largest in the state.[4][5]

The district is labeled 1J, as it absorbed the West Union School District, the first district in the county; the J (for "joint") represents that the district extends into other counties, Yamhill and Multnomah.[6][7] Hillsboro's elementary schools had been District 7 prior to consolidation in 1996.[6] The high school district was 3J and included students from grades 7 through 12, and received students from the Hillsboro elementary district and five other elementary districts.[6]

The Hillsboro School District Board of Directors (school board) consists of seven elected members serving four-year terms. Members receive no pay for their work on the board. The district is part of the Northwest Regional Education Service District.[8]

The district also runs a special alternative school and the Hare Field athletic complex.

History

[edit]

Hillsboro's first school district was formed in 1851 as School District 7.[9] The Reverend Horace Lyman established the district and was the first commissioner, with that title later becoming school superintendent.[9] The first school in the district was a single-room log cabin built in 1853 after a school levy was passed to raise $600 for construction.[9] In 1875, a new frame constructed school was built, with the smaller log cabin was kept for additional space.[9]

In 1890 a new eight-room schoolhouse was finished at the present site of David Hill Elementary.[9] In September 1908, tenth grade was added to the Hillsboro school district, with the classes held on the top floor of the school.[10] Eleventh and twelfth grades were soon added, and in June 1911 the first students to complete four years of high school graduated.[11] This class totaled five students, four girls and one boy.[11] A stand-alone high school was completed by 1913,[12] and a gymnasium was built beginning in 1915.[13] The district overall employed a total of 19 teachers for the 1913–1914 school year.[14]

All five of the high school teachers in the district resigned in 1914 in a dispute with management.[15] The school board had allowed the students to vote on which teachers to retain, which the teachers resented even though all were retained in the vote.[15] The mass walkout led to classes being canceled for a time.[15]

The district paid high school teachers $133 per month, other teachers $125 per month, and principals $1500 per year for the 1920 to 1921 school year.[16]

In 1929, a new high school building was finished with additional buildings and the wings added later.[9] The neighboring Cornelius school district was dissolved in 1960, and part of their enrollment area was shifted to the Hillsboro districts, while the remainder went to the Forest Grove School District.[17]

Brookwood Elementary was opened in 1953, followed by Poynter Junior High in 1960, then Brown Junior High and Mooberry Elementary in 1963.[9][18] In May 1961, voters in all the districts feeding the high school voted on a proposal to merge into a single district.[19] Voters decided not to merge, but the next February voters did approve merging the junior high grades into the high school district.[20] The high school district then purchased Poynter from the elementary district for $772,566, and passed a bond measure in March 1962 to pay for that purchase, expand the school, and pay for the new junior high school that became Brown.[21]

The district opened Hare Field in 1965, a multi-sport facility with a track, baseball stadium, and football field.[22][23] In 1970, a new senior high school opened on 48 acres (190,000 m2) on the south side of Hillsboro, with enrollment of the high school district reaching 3,621 students that year.[9] The Union High School District's teachers held a three-day strike in March 1973 over their contracts, the first teacher's strike in Oregon history.[24]

By 1987, enrollment in all the districts feeding into the high school district along with the high school district reached approximately 12,325 students.[25] In 1987, the Union High School District began plans to unify the high school district with the six elementary districts that feed into the district's junior and senior high schools.[25] In 1991, the Oregon Legislature passed a law requiring school districts to unify by 1996, which forced some reluctant elementary districts to unify into the Hillsboro School District.[26] On July 1, 1996, Hillsboro Elementary, North Plains, Farmington View, Groner, Reedville, West Union, and Hillsboro Union High School districts unified into a single district, the fifth largest in Oregon at that time.[27]

21st century

[edit]

In 2003, the district made national news when 17 days of classes were cut from the school year, which allowed students to be out in May, due to budget cuts to education in Oregon.[28] That year enrollment reached 18,951 for the unified district.[29]

In 2006, the district implemented a statistical tracking program that keeps track of all student information such as demographics, attendance, and academic achievement.[30]

The district faced opposition in 2009 over the demolition of J. B. Thomas Middle School, which preservationists wanted to save for use as a community building.[31] The district planned to tear down the old building after a 2006 bond measure approved construction of several new schools, including a new middle school and expansion at the other existing middle schools.[32] A new elementary school was built with funds from this levy on the eastern part of Thomas' grounds, with the buildings of the old school to be torn down to make way for athletic fields.[31] In July 2009, a court allowed the demolition to go forward.[32]

By November 2009 the district had become the first in Oregon to use an Internet-based crisis management program to allow for easier access to information on schools by the district.[33]

HSD purchased 40 acres (16 ha) in the South Hillsboro area in April 2014 to house a fifth high school, and, along with prior acquisitions, could add up to four elementary schools and a middle school in that area.[34]

In 2017, a $408 million capital construction bond was passed to facilitate various projects across the district, such as renovations to school buildings, increased security measures, the construction of two new elementary schools, the creation of a fiber optic network connecting all schools, and land acquisition of new school sites.[35][36]

The boundary includes most of Hillsboro, all of North Plains, and portions of Aloha, Beaverton, Cornelius, and Rockcreek.[37]

The district operates 34 schools, including four high schools, four middle schools, and 26 elementary schools. HSD also operates an alternative combined middle and high school, an online school, as well as a charter school.[38] As of 2021, one new elementary school is under construction.[39] Staffing includes 1,244 full-time classified employees, 1,130 full-time teachers, and 79 administrator staff members.[2] The average student to teacher ratio is 26:1 with a 3.5% drop-out rate for the 2005 to 2006 school year.[40] In the 2009 school year, the district had 403 students classified as homeless by the Department of Education, or 2.0% of students in the district.[41] The annual budget is $250,935,863 [2]

Free Orchards, Jackson, McKinney, Patterson, Lincoln Street, and North Plains elementary schools feed into Evergreen.[145] As of 2013, the school had 794 students and had a below average performance rating from the state.[147]

The school opened in 1981 as Evergreen Junior High with Joe Rodriquez as the first principal.[148] It was the fourth junior high in the then Union High School District, and was expanded the next year to house emotionally handicapped students in the district.[148][149]

J. W. Poynter

[edit]
Poynter

Opened in 1960 as Poynter Junior High School,[18] the school now feeds into Liberty High School. The school was built by the then elementary school district, then sold the high school district in 1962 for $772,566 after the high school district expanded to include junior high school grades.[18] Poynter is named after James W. Poynter, who had served as the elementary district's superintendent for 19 years and died in 1958.[150] Elementary schools that feed into the school are Mooberry, Eastwood, Orenco, Lenox, Quatama, and West Union.[145] The school is in the central part of Hillsboro on Grant Street, and abuts Cornell Road. As of 2013, the school had 723 students and had a below average performance rating from the state.[151]

South Meadows

[edit]
South Meadows

Opened in 2009, the school replaced J. B. Thomas Middle School.[125] The $41 million, two-story school has a capacity of 1,000 students, with enrollment at about 750 when it opened.[123] Silver and light brown in color, the building was paid for from a 2006 bond measure,[65] though Hillsboro's Parks Department provided an additional $500,000 to allow for a larger gym that is utilized by the parks department when school is not in session.[123]

South Meadows is home to the Hawks and feeds students into Hillsboro High School.[152] The school is located in southeast Hillsboro, adjacent to Witch Hazel Elementary. South Meadows is Hillsboro's only school that has the middle school version of the International Baccalaureate program.[123] As of 2013, the school had 747 students and had a below average performance rating from the state.[153] South Meadows receives students from W.L. Henry, Brookwood, Minter Bridge, Farmington View, Groner, Rosedale, and Witch Hazel elementary schools.[84]

Future Schools

[edit]

Tamarack

[edit]

Tamarack Elementary, named after the nearby Tamarack Park, is under construction in the Reed's Crossing neighborhood of South Hillsboro.[155] The school will share a similar floor plan to that of Atfalati Ridge and Brookwood, with all three buildings paid for by the 2017 construction bond. The district is additionally planning to construct 3 other elementary schools, a middle school, and a high school in South Hillsboro, pending approval of a future bond measure.[156]

Former schools

[edit]
David Hill School
Thomas Middle School
  • Barnes Junior High School:
  • Peter Boscow Elementary
  • David Hill Elementary
  • J.B. Thomas Middle/Junior High School: The beige-colored buildings were located on NE 6th Ave and NE Lincoln St.[157] The main school building, the second campus for Hilhi (until 1969), was a three-story structure with 47,096 square feet (4,375.4 m2) of space.[157] The eastern wing was constructed in 1963.[157]

Dual language program

[edit]

In 2002,[158] the district created a Spanish-English dual language immersion program to address the changing needs of the community it serves. As a response to research[159][160] showing that native language instruction increases general literacy, community involvement, and graduation rates, the program was first implemented at the elementary level (at W. L. Henry and Minter Bridge[158]) and now extends K-12 in the Hillsboro High School feeder. The district, which as of 2009-2010 enrolled 16% English-language learners, now offers a dual language diploma endorsement,[161] allowing graduates to demonstrate assessed academic proficiency in both English and Spanish.

In neighborhood elementary schools where ELL enrollment is high, early grades are weighted heavily towards the native language. Grade level advancement blends English at an increasing rate in all academic areas (language arts, math, science, etc.), until the overall balance is at approximate parity by middle school.[162] Enrollment is optional, meaning the district will accommodate transfer requests away from entirely dual-language neighborhood schools; conversely, families whose neighborhood schools are not part of the program may request in-district transfer to join.
