Dickinson Elementary School

The opening of Dickinson Elementary in the fall of 1993 was the beginning of a very exciting era in the community of Greatwood! The school is named after the courageous Susanna Dickinson, one of the few survivors of the Battle of the Alamo in 1836. The students and staff of Dickinson carry on the legacy of Susanna Dickinson by embracing challenges and by being ambitious in the pursuit of excellence.

The students and staff of Dickinson receive strong community support contributing to their tremendous sense of school spirit. Our staff of caring and dedicated professionals works diligently to make sure that each student's special needs are met. Our team of teachers, staff, and volunteers encourage each child to work up to the best of their ability and to continue to raise their own standards and expectations. Excellence in education is all in a day's work at Dickinson!

In March 2023, we celebrated our 30^th year as an elementary school in Lamar CISD.
