Hillsborough Elementary Takes Action on “Everyone is Welcome”

At Hillsborough Elementary School, the words on the front mural aren’t just decoration — they’re a promise: “Everyone is Welcome.” Now, the school is taking that promise to heart with a major accessibility upgrade.

Construction is underway to make all exterior entrances fully ADA compliant, ensuring every student, parent, staff member, and visitor can enter the building with ease and dignity. This project is more than bricks and ramps — it’s a tangible step toward living the values the school community embraces every day.

As the work progresses, Hillsborough Elementary continues to set an example for how schools can blend inclusion with action. Soon, the welcoming message won’t just be seen — it will be felt by everyone who walks through the doors.
