Vision Statement:
Dickenson Elementary School will be in the top 1% of Hillsborough County's elementary schools.
Mission Statement:
Dickenson Elementary will provide all students with the opportunity to achieve their full potential.
Dickenson Elementary opened in 1963. The school was named for W.B. Dickenson, who was Superintendent of Schools for Hillsborough County from 1905 to 1909. Because the school is near the Bay, the dolphin was chosen as the mascot.
The colors are aquamarine and white. Additions to the school were constructed in 1987, 1992 and 2007.
A school beautification program was started in 2003. During 2003 a beach themed mural was painted from
floor to ceiling on all four walls of the Media Center. Also, an ocean adventure mural was painted on the wall outside the main office.
Flowers and trees were planted throughout the school grounds.
Several gathering areas with park benches, ponds and even a dolphin statue were created by local area Boy Scouts. During the summer of 2005 PTA donated plants to line the front walkways of the school.
Things are looking beautiful at Dickenson Elementary!
Dickenson Elementary has always prided itself on its outstanding reputation in the community and throughout the school district.
Faculty and Staff work together to create an engaging and challenging environment where all children can learn. Principal, Felicia Williams, focuses on continuing education for her staff and challenges the staff to incorporate innovative ideas and best practices into the classroom. Assistant Principal, Jenifer Neale arrived a few years ago and is a wonderful addition to the Dickenson Family.
