Hillsboro, ND — The Hillsboro School Board held their regular monthly meeting on Thursday morning, August 11th.  Staffing was a big part of this week’s meeting as the board approved a number of new hires, according to Hillsboro Superintendent Paula Suda.

The school board also approved increasing pay for mini bus drivers from $10 per hour to $20 per hour and substitutes teachers from $120 to $125 a day.

Superintendent Suda provided an update on buildings and grounds. She notes they are still waiting to finish up a few summer projects.

 Last month the Hillsboro School Board approved their preliminary budget, but Suda now provides more insight into what was approved and how their budget sits for the coming school year.

And as families get ready for the new school year, Superintendent Suda reminds them that lunches won’t be free for all students this year.

Students at Hillsboro return to class on Wednesday, August 24th
