August Attendance Incentives

Attendance matters: when students miss school, they miss out. It's also important for students to be in the classroom on time. This August, students have the opportunity to earn some awsesome WB rewards when they are in school! See incentives below.

If your child does need to be out of school for any reason, please let the school know by filling out this form: https://form.jotform.com/241165404666052

Meet Your School Board Member: Erin O'Hara Block

Hi Hillsboro families! I’m Erin O’Hara Block, your elected representative on the Metro Nashville Board of Education for District 8—and a proud parent of a freshman and a sophomore at Hillsboro High School. I’m a longtime education policy leader and advocate for strong, equitable public schools.
As a school board member, I work with other board members and Dr. Battle to help shape district policy, oversee the MNPS budget, and aim to ensure every student has the support they need to thrive. Parents can reach out to me when district or state policy is affecting their child’s school experience, if there are facility needs or safety concerns, or if support from the district or city services could make a difference for their family or school. I’m always eager to hear from you—whether you have a question, concern, or great idea.
I’ll be around at school events this year—please say hello and introduce yourself! You can also reach me anytime at erin.block@mnps.org. Hope you have a great start to the 2025-26 school year!
