Hickman is a neighborhood school in the Donelson area, which serves a richly diverse population reflecting our community.
We are dedicated to serving our students through teacher collaboration, personalized learning and classroom engagement.
Our school provides support and resources to meet the needs of all students, including Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) programs for gifted and talented students, and English Learner services for students and families who primarily speak another language.
Our related arts program features music classes, which hold grade level performances for the community. In addition, students participate in art and physical education classes, with PE held at least twice a week. Blended learning opportunities are available throughout the school as a 1:1 technology District. In conjunction with our Limitless Libraries program, our full-time librarian helps our students access a large library collection.
The school's unique location on the same campus as Donelson Middle makes Hickman Elementary a convenient choice for families with multiple students. Its shared campus also facilitates a smooth transition into middle school. Hickman has an inner courtyard, accessible only from inside the school, that features picnic tables for outdoor learning and class lunch. Classes and teachers can enjoy the area by having a picnic outside, while students in Pre-K use this as a safe area to ride play equipment.
