Dear Hickory Tree Families,
We are officially in the final stretch of the school year, and we could not be more proud of the hard work, growth, and determination we are seeing across our campus! Our students are rising to the challenge, staying focused on their goals, and putting in the effort each and every day.
A huge THANK YOU to our incredible PTA for hosting such an amazing Spring Carnival! It was a night full of joy, laughter, and community. Events like this remind us how special “The Tree” truly is. We appreciate the time, effort, and love that went into making it such a memorable experience for our students and families.
As we move forward, our focus remains strong:
- Maximizing every instructional minute
- Supporting students in reaching their goals
- Finishing the year with our highest growth yet
We are so close, and every day matters. Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting your child’s success!
With gratitude,
Ms. Miller and Ms. Vargas

Teacher Appreciation Week (May 4–May 8)
Our teachers are truly the heart of Hickory Tree Elementary. Every day, they go above and beyond to support, inspire, and uplift our students.
During Teacher Appreciation Week, we invite our families to help us show just how much they mean to us:
💌 Encourage your child to write a heartfelt thank-you note
🎨 Create a small drawing or message of appreciation
💬 Share kind words that recognize the impact they make
Our teachers pour so much into our students—and this is a wonderful opportunity to pour that appreciation right back into them.
We are rolling out the red carpet to spotlight the VIP STARS OF HTES... OUR TEACHERS. If you'd like to participate in this year's theme, see the attached flyer for daily gift ideas.
TOGETHER... LET'S CELEBRATE THE VIP STARS OF HICKORY TREE ELEMENTARY!
LIGHTS, CAMERA, APPRECIATION!
