Greetings Falcon Families,

Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year! As I begin my fourth year as the proud principal of C.J. Hicks Elementary, I am truly looking forward to strengthening relationships with our returning families and building relationships with our new families. If we collectively commit to working together, this school year promises to be POSITIVE, PRODUCTIVE, and PEACEFUL.

At C.J. Hicks, our vision is to be a positive learning environment where students grow into culturally, technologically, and globally competitive individuals. It is our mission to ensure the academic, social, and emotional success of all students through rigorous, individualized instruction. As a school community, we will remain dedicated to honoring our R.I.S.E. expectations: RESPECT, INTEGRITY, SAFETY, and EMPATHY.

To stay well informed throughout the school year, be certain to create a Parent Portal account in Infinite Campus, sign-up to receive Remind messages, check your child’s red communication folder each week, listen to the Sunday messages, read The Falcon Flyer each month, visit the CJH webpage frequently, maintain an open line of communication with your child’s teacher, sign-up for a parent-teacher conference each semester, and attend all school events with pride.

As your principal, it is my long-term goal to LEAD with both humility and confidence, continue to LEARN alongside our dedicated and hard-working teachers, students, and staff, LOVE our school community, and work diligently to ensure that C.J. Hicks is a great place to work, learn and GROW.

Remember that today, and every day, is a great day to be a Falcon and I am proud to be your principal. Thank you for choosing C.J. Hicks Elementary!

With Falcon Pride,

Dr. Erica Wakefall
