Dear Hillsboro ISD Community,
I hope this email finds you well and you are ready to begin the new school year, tomorrow, Wednesday, August 16. Today, I wanted to share an important update regarding the Hillsboro ISD Board of Trustees.
Hillsboro ISD School Board Trustee Dr. Amanda Scarborough, who represented Place 1, announced her resignation from the Hillsboro ISD School Board on Monday, July 17, 2023, during a special board meeting. We extend our deepest gratitude to Dr. Scarborough for her dedicated service, unwavering commitment, and valuable contributions to our school district over the past eight years.
The remaining board members voted to fill the vacancy by appointment. The Board of Trustees selected Michael Peavy to represent Place 1. Mr. Peavy took the Oath of Office on Monday, August 14, 2023, during the regular board meeting.
The newly-appointed trustee shared, "I want to help make sure the kids of our town receive the best education and school experience we can possibly provide for them."
Michael Peavy was born and raised in Maypearl, Texas. He has been a member of the Hillsboro Community since 2013. Mr. Peavy has three children that attend Hillsboro ISD and his wife, Amy Peavy, is a teacher at Hillsboro Elementary School. Along with his new position on the board, he is also the owner of Schulze Insurance Agency in Malone, Texas. Additionally, Mr. Peavy is a veteran of the United States Army.
Please join me in welcoming Michael Peavy to the Hillsboro ISD Board of Trustees.
Sincerely,
Dr. Darrell Brown
Superintendent
