Hello! My name is Melissa Tidwell, and I am thrilled to be joining Holcomb Elementary as the Administrative Assistant! I have a passion for helping others, staying organized, and creating welcoming environments where people feel supported. When I’m not at school, you’ll usually find me spending time with my husband, two stepsons and fur babies, enjoying the outdoors, or making memories with family and friends.
Having spent the past five years as a substitute teacher at Holcomb, I already know firsthand what a special place it is. I look forward to continuing to support the wonderful students, families, and staff that make our school community so exceptional!

I’m so excited to be joining the team at Holcomb this year! I recently graduated from the University of Arkansas with a Bachelor’s of Science in Education, and completed my student teaching experience at Holcomb, so I feel very lucky to continue teaching in a community that already feels like home. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, staying active, and reading. I can’t wait to meet my students and families and begin this new adventure together!
