Hillsdale Front Building Blueprint

Exciting Improvements Coming to Hillsdale

We are beginning important construction at Hillsdale Elementary to enhance learning spaces and improve school safety. While we know construction can bring changes, we want to keep you informed and assure you that we remain committed to being great neighbors throughout this process!

Happening Now

Starting the week of March 31st, our three year construction project will begin with exterior construction at the back of our school building. The main changes you can expect right now include:

  • Increased Activity: You may notice trucks, trailers, and equipment moving in and out of the area.
  • New Dismissal Procedures: We are adjusting walker and pickup dismissal routes.
  • Temporary Relocations: HDE outdoor sheds and the maintenance container will be moved on campus.
  • Dumpster Arrival: A construction dumpster will be placed on campus in late April or early May.

What’s Staying the Same?

Hillsdale Student and Parent Planting

While our building is evolving, our dedication to high-quality education, student success, and a welcoming school environment remains unchanged. We continue to value the strong relationships we’ve built with families, neighbors, and local partners, and we appreciate your ongoing support. 

Hillsdale’s beloved traditions, like Planting Day and so many more, will still take place, ensuring that our students remain connected to the experiences they love. Most importantly, our focus remains on providing a safe and engaging learning environment where students can thrive, no matter what changes occur around them.
