Hillsboro School District Weekly Hot News, November 25, 2024, Bike Helmet Giveaway at Lincoln Street Elementary School

Recently, brand new bicycle helmets were given to all students at Lincoln Street Elementary School, thanks to a collaboration between Lincoln Street P.E. teacher, Mrs. Saguchi, Glencoe High School Leadership, WashCo Bikes, the Hillsboro Police Department, and trauma nurses from Legacy Health. The donation was made in memory of a Lincoln Street 6th grader who was tragically killed when he was struck by a car while riding his bike last February. High school and adult volunteers helped fit the students with helmets and provided safety education. Coming up on Thursday, March 13, 2025, a Bike Rodeo will be held at Lincoln Street where students can learn the rules of the road and get their bikes repaired, if needed. There will also be some bikes available for giveaway to students who don’t have one. Many thanks to everyone who helped make this amazing and extremely generous donation possible!
