    About US

    Hutsell Elementary, which opened in 1978, serves a diverse student group. Its academic success is attributable to a dedicated faculty that works hard to meet the needs of individual children, an effective volunteer and community group of more than 200, and a variety of special programs that serve its diverse population.

    Classroom teachers share instructional objectives with special-area teachers (physical education, art, music, technology, and media library) so that lessons in those areas strongly support regular classroom activities.

    ​Parents stay in touch with campus happenings through the Parent-Teacher Association, the Campus Advisory Team, and a bi-weekly newsletter that focuses on school and classroom activities, and parent involvement opportunities. In addition, school information goes home weekly in the "Wednesday Folder," and the library media center houses a special parent section. Hutsell also sponsors grade-level orientations, an open house, academic nights, nighttime parent conferences for working parents, and six parent academies that focus on topics ranging from phonics and social studies to a school-wide art night.
