Welcome to Hickory Elementary!
Hickory Elementary opened in September, 1961 with 278 students. Our enrollment now is over 800 students.
It was named for a nearby street. Hickory covers 8.5 acres. The attractive, one and two-story school campus is
located adjacent to a city park which increases its sense of spaciousness and provides another
area for school activities.
Hickory has over 40 classrooms. The school has a library, a newly upgraded
computer laboratory, an art/science storage room, a science kit/book resource room, a music
room, a resource specialist room, and a literary trailer used for our reading improvement program.
Emergency drills are routinely held for earthquake, fire preparedness, and sheltering-in-place.
Emergency and survival equipment/supplies are available on site.
Our PTA has been most supportive in helping us with supplies, materials, and up-to-date information. Playgrounds are
supervised by campus aides and teachers during school hours.
