Tomorrow is Service Personnel Appreciation Day! At this time, I would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our service personnel for the work they do each and every day to make our schools better! The first people most students see each day are the bus drivers, custodians, or cooks. That first contact can make or break a student's day. In Pocahontas County, we are very fortunate that all of our service employees do their best to make our kids feel welcome, safe, and cared for. We thank our bus drivers, cooks, custodians, aides, secretaries, maintenance men, and bus mechanics for making our school system successful. Thank you so much for what you do!
Hillsboro Elementary School is so thankful for the service personnel that serve the students and community of Pocahontas County. Thank you all for what you do for us all!!!
Congratulations to Bill Mason and Abigail McNeel for being voted on to Hillsboro Elementary LSIC.
