Staff Spotlight: Victoria Hickey
Veterans Park Elementary; office clerk

"The front office is the first place visitors come to when they enter the school building. One of the most important parts of my job is to make sure that everyone feels welcome. In the front office of VPE, we feel that our smiles and positive attitudes set the tone for our school.
"Students always come first in the office at VPE! If a child has a question, needs a Band-Aid or maybe just a little extra attention, I want every child to trust us and know that the ladies in the office are there to help in any way we can. We become their moms for the day!
"The teamwork between home and school is what I believe makes the difference for our students. I want to be there to help calm any fears that parents may have regarding their children. Whether they are dropping their child off at school for the very first time or coming back to visit from middle school, our families know that we always care about their children."
