Welcome to the home of the Hawks, here on the Internet site for J. Robert Hendricks Elementary school. Our highly performing campus of nearly 450 students is located in the strong community of Tucson. You'll find us at the central, southern part of Arizona, which offers bright and sunny skies and warm weather all year long.

Hendricks Elementary serves kindergarten to 6th grade. We take great pride and care in teaching your children every day. Our teachers and staff know that encouragement and challenging work build great minds and character. We are proud to be an A+ School!

Please take time to read our site in detail. This is a great way to keep informed and involved with our school. We'd love your partnership with us throughout your children's education. Our calendar and news page will keep you updated with our many activities. We also have your basic questions answered in the FAQ and you'll notice the Helpful Links page has some terrific links to enhance your child's education. Please contact us for anything you need. Our staff and teachers are glad you and your children are here with us this year!

Dear Hendricks Community,

It is hard to believe that another successful school year is drawing to a close. They seem to go by so quickly. As always, May is a very busy month with many extra events scheduled. Please keep a copy of the newsletter handy for important dates and times.

This past Friday, the Arizona Educators Association honored our very own Mrs. Sheila Boyd. She was the recipient of the “Especially for Kids Award” for the many wonderful activities she sponsors for our students at Hendricks Elementary School. Way to go Mrs. Boyd!

On another note, Mrs. Agraan would appreciate a heads-up from parents whose child/children won’t be attending Hendricks or FWJH next year. Please stop in to see her prior to the last day of school for the necessary withdrawal form(s) which you will need to take to the receiving school.

Students’ last day of school will be Thursday, May 21. This is a half-day, and we will have our Awards Assemblies at 8:30 am for first through third grade students and 9:30 am for our fourth through sixth grade students. I hope you will be able to join us for this special celebration.

Thank you for your continued support of Hendricks Elementary School. It is our privilege to work with your child/children and provide them with a quality public education. We hope you have a wonderful summer and are able to create some special memories. Please encourage your child/children to enjoy a few good books this summer as well as to keep practicing their math facts. You may want to watch the marquee in early August for back-to-school news.

Have a great summer!

Sincerely,



Carolyn L. Twohill, Principal
