Superintendent John Marschhausen shared the Hilliard City School District’s Restart Plan with our staff and community on July 7th. This plan represents months of work by a variety of teams; all focused on preparing for the beginning of the 2020-2021 school year.

The plan is intended to provide an overview of the three educational delivery scenarios and a fully online option that we are prepared for as a district:

• All-In Plan: Fully in-person education
• Hybrid Plan: A combination of in-person and online education
• eLearning 2.0: Online education
• Online Academy: Fully online education

The plan also outlines the health and safety measures that will be put in place to deliver in-person learning.

If you were unable to join the Zoom, you can find details from his presentation on our 2020/21 web page. There is also an FAQ page where you can find many answers to questions you might have.

Registration for the Hilliard Online Academy, a 100% online option, is currently open and the deadline for registration is July 24th.

Dr. Marschhausen will host another Community Q&A Zoom on July 14th at 6:30 pm.

As we enter our summer break, our students’ mental health remains a top concern.  We want to be sure our students and families know there is help available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

One tool is the Safe Schools Hotline.  This is a free and confidential option for our students to report threats of violence, illegal activity, or any activity they think can harm students or staff in our schools.  There is a toll-free number students can call or number they can text or a web page where they can report their concerns and talk to a trained mental health counselor.

The events of the week, from the senseless death of George Floyd to the unrest in our cities and country, have left us angry and heartbroken. As one of the largest school districts in Ohio, we have a responsibility to take action in times of crisis. We have an obligation to provide a place where every student is welcomed, respected, supported, and celebrated.

The Hilliard City School District is proud to announce the immediate formation of the Inclusivity & Justice Task Force. Mrs. Samantha Chatman, Principal at Alton Darby Elementary School, has been appointed by Dr. John Marschhausen, Superintendent, as the district’s Diversity and Inclusivity Coordinator. Mrs. Chatman will serve as Taskforce Chair. Taskforce members will be officially named at the Board of Education Meeting on June 15, 2020.

Our commitment to diversity in Hilliard doesn’t start now; this is an additional resource on our journey. The work of Mrs. Janet Monseur-Durr and Mrs. Sabine Canty has earned national and international acclaim. The United States Department of Homeland Security has recognized Hilliard’s diversity efforts as a model for schools and communities. Hilliard hosted Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson, and our school team was sent to Belgium to share our work and engage in dialogue.

“Today’s crisis demands new action. We live our values, our passion for growth, to embrace the complex work and create a better tomorrow,” shared Dr. Marschhausen. “We can’t wait. We must root out racism in our behavior and demand justice in our actions.”

“Racial injustice has plagued our country for hundreds of years. The time is now! The time for our Hilliard community to engage, to educate, to model, to break down barriers, and to change systems and policies that perpetuate racism,” said Mrs. Chatman.  “Together we will lead and do the work to end systematic racism.”

“The recent death of George Floyd has again shined the light on the problem of prejudice and racism.  As civic leaders we are called on to take action and lead in times of crisis,” said Mr. Abate, Board of Education President.  “The Hilliard Way has always been about building a strong community and now is the time for us to come together and model the way forward in eliminating racism and prejudice from our nation and community.”

We join with our city leaders and the Hilliard Division of Police in a commitment to open dialogue and purposeful action. Working together focused on improvement, we will make our schools and community a better place for everyone. The Hilliard City School District is also part of a larger Greater Columbus Community. We will seek input and support from The Ohio State University College of Education and Human Ecology and the Educational Service Center of Central Ohio.

As we say goodbye to the 2019/20 school year, we also must say goodbye to several staff members who have retired.  We are sorry this could not be in person, but the wish is the same.  We wish every single retiree all the happiness in the world.  Stay safe and enjoy this new chapter in your life.
