Principal’s Message

 

Hickory Tree Families,

As we begin Quarter 2, I want to take a moment to celebrate the strong start we’ve had together this school year. Quarter 1 was filled with learning, growth, and community spirit, and I am so proud of the dedication our students, staff, and families continue to show each day.

At Hickory Tree Elementary, academic excellence remains at the heart of everything we do. This quarter, our focus is on helping every student set goals, track their progress, and celebrate their achievements along the way. We encourage you to take time with your child to reflect on areas of strength and areas for growth, and then set new goals for Quarter 2. Whether it’s improving in reading, strengthening math skills, or developing positive habits, our goal is to ensure that every student grows and thrives.

Beyond academics, we remain committed to developing the whole child. From character education and leadership opportunities, to family events and community involvement, Hickory Tree is a place where students feel safe, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential. Daily attendance, strong communication, and your partnership at home all play an important role in this journey.

As we continue into this next quarter, I invite you to stay connected, check grades in the parent portal, communicate regularly with teachers, and participate in school events. Your involvement makes a tremendous difference in the success of our students and the strength of our Hawk family.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. Together, we will make Quarter 2 a time of great achievement and memorable experiences for our students.

With Hawk Pride,

Amy Miller

Testimonials

Student Testimonial

I’ve been at Hickory Tree since 2nd grade, and I feel happy there. My teachers really care about me and make going to school fun. Clubs like NEHS teach me about being a leader and helping others.  Recess is the best because I get to play soccer with my friends, and everyone is really kind here.  The best part of being at HTE is that I’ve grown more confident and ready for middle school. I’ll miss this place a lot! - Braedon, Student When we moved to the area, one of our biggest concerns was finding the right school for our son. Starting over in a new place is never easy. From the very first day, we knew we had made the right choice with Hickory Tree. The teachers/staff welcomed us warmly, and took the time to get to know my son and help him adjust. He's grown more confident, made new friends, and developed a love for learning. HTE is a wholesome school where our son has thrived academically and personally and we’re so grateful to be part of it. – Gianeris & Evelio, Parents
