Each meeting will provide families, district employees and community members the opportunity to get their questions about the Hillsborough school referendum answered — straight from Superintendent Jeff Eakins.

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY – Hillsborough County School Superintendent Jeff Eakins will host several town hall meetings throughout the county, beginning next week, to talk about the Nov. 6 education referendum and inform voters about school needs and the positive impact a half-penny sales tax referendum would have on students, schools and community.
