Hawthorne Elementary School

As a newer teacher, I could not have received a better placement than at Hawthorne Elementary. The staff has embraced me with open arms and works efficiently together to provide our students with the best learning experience possible. Hawthorne has a smaller learning community with teachers that are committed to furthering each child’s education. There are many great things coming in Hawthorne’s future!

Thank God my children no longer attend here. I can say that now they are receiving a better education and are now in a safer environment! No more bullying, no more fear, no more bad teachers, etc. My kids are NOW being challenged and not just passed from grade to grade without learning. I realized that after switching schools. My kids now attend Standley Middle and Doyle and let me tell you they were at the end of their class when the school year started. Their teachers couldn’t believe that they were even passed to the next grade. My daughter has had a hard time with english. For an example, she doesn’t know grammar basics such as the difference between there, their, they’re. Things like that in addition to math issues. Now she is getting all the help she needs to succeed thanks to a new school with new leadership. She is no longer being sexually harassed and bullied. I even filed complaints with the board and nothing happened! My son was held under water, thrown to the ground, kicked in the head (2^nd grade) yet there were no consequences for the child who violated him. The biggest mistake in all my years of parenting was sending my kids here. Please do not send you kids here. Unless they are in the GATE program, you will regret it.
