​School Reassignment Draft 

Several Hilburn PTA Board members and members of our Hilburn Family attended the District 7 Board Advisory Council meeting on 9/23 at Leesville High School.  Glenn Carrozza, Senior Director Office of Student Assignment, shared information that is taken into consideration when school base areas are reassigned.  Barton Pond, a new traditional-calendar elementary school, will be opening in Fall of 2022, causing changes to many schools' base student assignments, including Hilburn Academy.  We encourage all parents to read Draft 1 of the reassignment plan once it’s proposed on October 5th.  More information will be posted here when available.

​Timeline for Student Assignment Plan:
October 5 - Draft 1 Release (details HERE)
November 16 - Draft 2 Release
November 30 - Public Hearing
​December 7 - Final Draft for Board Vote

Water Fountain Update!

All 12 retro-fit units have been installed by WCPSS facilities. THANK YOU Hilburn families! YOUR donations to the PTA fundraiser made this possible!
