Hiteon Highlights Newsletter
August 2025
Dear Hiteon Community,
The start of a new school year is just around the corner,and our school is beginning to come alive with the promise of a new year. Summer has been a time of preparation here at Hiteon—our custodial team has been hard at work getting the building ready, teachers will begin to set up their classrooms, and our office has been busy making sure every detail is in place for a smooth start.
This year, our schoolwide theme is “Kindness Belongs Here.” We’re excited to weave kindness into all aspects of our learning community—encouraging respect, grace, and empathy so that every student, staff member, and family feels seen, valued, and welcome.
The first day of school always brings a mix of excitement and possibility, and we are eager to see our students walk through the doors ready to learn, connect, and grow. Thank you for partnering with us in making Hiteon a place where every child can thrive.
Here’s to a fantastic 2025–2026 school year!
Warmly,
Janet Maza, Principal
Jenny Read-Emslie, Assistant Principal

We're excited to welcome all our new Kindergarten Hawks.
Clothes for Kids appointments for the August - October 2025 time period are now available. The program serves current BSD students whose families have limited income. This appointment window goes through the end of October. There is one appointment per family during this timeframe.
BSD families must log into ParentSquare to make an appointment. Please know:
One appointment per family, not per child.
Up to three appointments per school year per family.
Clothing is only available for current BSD students and is limited to current inventory.
Appointments are up to one hour in length.
Bring reusable shopping bags, if available.
Young children need to be supervised at all times.
To keep on schedule, it's very important to be on time for your Clothes for Kids appointment. If you arrive very early or very late, we may not be able to accommodate you. If you need to cancel, please do so at least 24 hours prior to your appointment.
Clothes for Kids is located on the east side of the
District Support Center at 16550 SW Merlo Road
Just go straight through the gate and look for the Clothes for Kids building on the left.
Please do not delete your appointment signup after you have attended.
If you haven’t done so already, please reapply to be a volunteer in the Beaverton School District. We’re implementing a new volunteer management system over the summer and need time to process and complete the criminal background checks for all applicants.
Start on the Volunteer webpage on the district website. The entire process — including the review of the Child Abuse Prevention & Reporting and Adult Sexual Misconduct training materials — should take less than 10 minutes to complete.
Thank you for prioritizing our students’ safety and for your willingness to volunteer in BSD.
