Good Afternoon Jaguar Families,
It’s hard to believe that next week will be the start of November. We are proud of the effort our students have shown during our first quarter of the 22/23 school year.
Congratulations to the Hilliard Bradley marching band on earning the following awards at last weekend’s Newark Band Invitational: 1st Place-AA, Best Overall Music, Best Overall General Effect and Grand Champion.
The HBMB will have its final performance of their 2022 program “Ad Astra” this coming Saturday at the OMEA State Marching Band Finals, held right here at HBHS. They will perform at 11:45 AM – if you are free, please consider coming out and supporting these incredibly dedicated and hard-working Jags.
Congratulations to all of our fall sports team and coaches. As we begin to wrap up the fall sports seasons, we would like to thank all of our families and staff for their support of all of our students. Tonight, the football team will be participating in their first playoff game against Thomas Worthington at Thomas Worthington high school beginning at 7:00pm.
Finally, below in the District Section of this newsletter is a very important survey about our school facilities. I hope you take a moment to share your opinions with us.
Have a Great Weekend and Go Jags!!!

Alumni Spotlights
Hilliard Schools is proud of the excellence demonstrated by our alumni. We want to share their stories and are creating a new Alumni Spotlight to highlight and recognize alumni achievements, along with the impacts they are making in their fields and communities. These stories will be shared as a means to inspire our current students to pursue their dreams, connect alumni back to our community and serve as a point of districtwide and community celebration.
