Dear Timberwolf Families, 

I am excited and honored to serve as your Principal of Hicks Elementary! Prior to being named principal in 2022, I was the Assistant Principal at Hicks for five years. Before that, I taught 2^nd, 3^rd and 4^th grades at Hebron Valley Elementary. I graduated from Miami University (in Ohio) and received my Masters from Texas Woman’s University. 

My husband Drew and I have a daughter and 3 sons. Our daughter graduated from UNT, and our sons graduated from U of OK, OK State, and A&M. Our oldest son Chad and youngest son are both married to our two amazing daughter-in-laws. We have a beautiful granddaughter who brings joy to us all. We have lived in Carrollton for over 33 years and all four of our children have attended K-12 in the Hebron feeder zone and are all proud Hebron graduates. Go Hawks! My faith, family, and friends provide a strong foundation for my life. 

I am looking forward to continued work with the Hicks community of students, parents, teachers and staff, who are all committed to building and maintaining a school climate that fosters strong relationships, safety, citizenship, collaboration, communication, a welcoming environment, exemplary academics, and respect.

Hicks has a long-standing reputation of excellence, and I’m thrilled to partner with you during these foundational years of your child’s academic journey. We have cherished traditions at Hicks and our PTA and parent involvement is second to none. The PTA has raised funds to pour back into our students through our Fall Festival, Book Fair, our school dance, and our Color Fun Run, just to name a few! Our Leader in Me program has been a great foundation to ensure that every student builds their leadership capacity as they learn and live the 8 Habits of Highly Effective Students. 

We welcome you to Hicks, and to the Timberwolf family. Partnering together, we will engage and inspire learners and leaders and ensure each and every child is confident and equipped with the knowledge and skills to thrive and adapt for their future. Please contact me if I can help or assist in any way.

Sincerely, 

Tracy Rehfuss, Principal
Hicks Elementary
