Born and raised right here in Hillsboro, Oregon, I am a proud product of the Hillsboro School District. I attended Peter Boscow Elementary School (K-6), Evergreen Junior High (7-9), and Glencoe High School (10-12). My husband and I have two daughters, a senior and freshman at Glencoe HS. This will be my 7th year as the elementary teacher at HOA and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE working here. My on-site hours will be Monday-Thursday 9:00-3:00 and the best way to contact me is email. A great place to go for curriculum links and newsletters is my website, mrskellar.weebly.com. Sixth grade families, please note that Outdoor School dates are Oct 21-23 with more info coming soon!
If your student was registered with us in early August, you should have received a welcome letter with important dates, including details about orientation. I have attached it to this email just in case. Elementary orientation is Tuesday, September 3rd with returning families going first from 9:00-11:00 and new families from 12:00-2:00. Orientation day is also picture day, so please bring your students (we will have a retake day if they are not able to attend). Students will be excused from the parent portion of orientation and taken to the gym for pictures and activities where they will be supervised by HOA staff. Please let me know if you have any questions about next week, or the month of September.
Now, here is your first assignment for the school year! Please reply and tell me one thing I should know about your student(s) (learning style, likes/dislikes, etc). I'm looking forward to seeing/meeting you all on Tuesday for orientation!
