About our School
 |
|
Hickory Elementary School is organized as a Kindergarten
through fifth grade school, housing over 700 students in
a traditional classroom setting. As an inclusion school,
our special needs students are served primarily in
regular classrooms. Hickory is also home to the Child
Find Office and to one of Harford County's autism
centers. We have three autism classrooms servicing
Kindergarten-1st grade students, 2nd-3rd grade students,
and 4th-5th grade students.
The building consists of over 70,000 square feet on
33 acres of land adjoining U.S. Business Route 1 and MD
Route 543. Hickory Elementary serves communities within
the Bel Air, Hickory, and Forest Hill areas.
We have a computer lab of 30 computers, all Internet
linked via a high speed line. Hot meals are served
daily. Approximately one-third of the students purchase
lunch each day. A variety of lunches are offered to the
students, with meal assistance for low-income families.
A breakfast program is also available. Our cafeteria is
computerized, allowing you to deposit money into an
account for your child's meals in advance.
The school is supported by an active PTA that
provides innumerable family and student activities and
services, including cultural assemblies and field trips.
The YMCA provides before and after school care onsite.
During the 2007-2008 school
year, Hickory was named a Maryland Blue Ribbon School of
Excellence. In September, 2008 Hickory Elementary
school was selected as a National Blue Ribbon School of
Excellence.
