Principal's Message

Trailblazer Families, 

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year! The faculty and staff at Twin Hickory Elementary School join me in saying how happy we are to have each of you as part of the Twin Hickory learning community. We look forward to the engaging learning opportunities that your child will experience both inside and outside of the classroom this year. Our faculty and staff is dedicated to providing students a nurturing school environment, building positive relationships, focusing on the individual growth of each child, and establishing high expectations for learning. 

Our school theme is “Trailblazers Stick Together.” This theme focuses on and commits to providing a safe, nurturing, inclusive, and innovative environment to our diverse community of learners to ensure success for each student. Our theme also supports our positive behavior interventions and supports (PBIS) program. PBIS aims to create a safe and supportive learning environment by teaching and modeling positive behaviors, such as being respectful, being responsible, and being safe. With these behaviors as our focus, we will continue to foster a school culture focused on  teamwork, inclusivity, and the well being and success of ALL students.  

Our experienced and passionate team of educators are committed to delivering dynamic and engaging lessons that will challenge and inspire our students. Our emphasis on academic excellence, combined with a focus on the social emotional well-being of students allows for all to become lifelong learners.  It is our hope that student experiences at Twin Hickory will prepare them for the many adventures awaiting them beyond elementary school and ultimately make them #LifeReady! 

Lastly, please make sure you check out our PTA website and look for the many places we could use your support this year as a volunteer. No job is too small and volunteering is a great way to meet other Trailblazer families! Please consider committing your time this school year. Together we can make a difference! 

Aytime I can be of service to you, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you this year! 

Warmly,
Mrs. Traylor
