About Hickory
Welcome to Hickory Elementary!
Hickory Elementary opened in September, 1961 with 278 students. Our enrollment now is over 900 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 and has been awarded State of California Gold Ribbon. The school has a library, brand new playground, a computer laboratory, a science lab, an art/music room, and a literary trailer used for our reading improvement program. We are 1:1 Chromebook school in Grades 2-5 and 2:1 in Kindergarten and First grades.
Our PTA has been most supportive in helping us with volunteers, supplies, and organizing the greatest school events. At Hickory, there's a place in the sun for everyone."
