What a year it has been! ❤️🖤

From supporting students and staff to hosting family events, funding programs, providing resources, and creating memorable experiences, this is just a glimpse of everything your Hickory Tree PTA was able to accomplish this year.

None of it would have been possible without our amazing volunteers, members, sponsors, donors, staff, and families. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us make a difference for our Hawks every single day.

Together, we truly showed what a community can accomplish when we work hand in hand for our children. 🌳🦅

Thank you for an incredible year!

Today we celebrated our 5th graders as they were officially promoted to middle school. We have watched these students learn, grow, make memories, and we’re going to miss them so much next year.

Middle school is getting a great group of kids, but they’ll always be Hawks to us!

📸 Parents and families, drop your favorite pictures from today's promotion ceremonies in the comments! We'd love to celebrate these special memories with you.

We will miss all of our 5th graders as they move on to middle school.

Thank you again to our former hawks who led the clap out today. We are so proud of you!

Today, former Hawks who graduated high school this year walked our halls one more time to lead our 5th graders’ clap out. ❤️🖤

From these hallways to graduation caps and gowns, it was such a special moment to welcome back familiar faces and celebrate how far they’ve come. Thank you for returning to inspire the next generation of Hawks and remind our students that big dreams really do start here at The Tree.

Once a Hawk, always a Hawk. ❤️

Today, we celebrated an incredible milestone at The Tree as we honored Alba Beck on her retirement after 23 years in Osceola County! ❤️🖤

Ms. Beck has poured so much love, dedication, and heart into generations of students and families. Today, our students and staff celebrated “The Queen” the best way we know how, with lots of love, laughter, and appreciation.

Congratulations, Ms. Beck! Thank you for everything you have done for our school community. We wish you nothing but happiness, relaxation, and endless adventures in this next chapter!
