That sounds like a big number, and it is, so let's break down where the money goes!

• Study Trips, Buses, and Assemblies, including the 4th and 5th Grade Walk-Through Experiences will cost $31,000.

• Student supplies for Adventures in Art will be $5,000 for the year.

• New materials for the Hickory Library are typically $3,000.

• The  PTA fund teachers and classrooms with grants of $250 per teacher for a total of $9,750 this year.

• Scholastic News is provided to all students at a cost of $6,250.

• Free Community Events, like Movie Night and Winter Fest, are expected to cost $5,250.

• Administrative costs, taxes, and PTA required obligations are  expected to cost us $8,450 this year.

• We also provide additional programs and events throughout the year totaling $8,900.

We are proud to have been able to provide additional gifts to Hickory Elementary throughout the years for technology and educational subscriptions and we'd like to be able to do this again. Every dollar we raise helps us give our students, teachers, staff, and families the best elementary school experience possible.
