FUN-RAISERS
LISD requires cleared background checks for all on-campus visitors. Register on Voly and submit your background check ASAP so you can sign up for volunteer opps, field trips, and general meetings. Be sure to become a fan of Hicks Elementary so our school opps appear in your feed first. (Note: It could take up to three weeks for your background check to clear.)
To link your Tom Thumb Rewards card to Hicks Elementary, simply stop in at the courtesy booth at your local Tom Thumb store and link your rewards card to Tom O. Hicks Elementary, Good Neighbor #12183.
