Hillsboro School District Bond Construction Projects are On Time, Within Budget at Two-Year Mark

Last Updated Mar 2009


A little more than two years since voters approved the 2006 construction bond to build new schools, renovate and expand existing facilities, the construction program has stayed its course in terms of meeting timelines and staying within budget.
Three new, shining elementary schools, Free Orchards, Lincoln Street and Quatama, opened in September 2008, and are in full operation serving hundreds of students in each new school.

Three of the District’s four middle schools have completed major classroom additions and renovations to accommodate up to 1,000 students. As part of these projects, improvements and expansions have been completed to front offices, cafeterias and other areas of the schools to improve safety, accommodate students and provide efficient school buildings that support quality educational environments for students.

Poynter Middle School is in the process of construction to add classrooms, and has recently completed a major remodel to the front offices to more effectively accommodate students and parents.
