It is both my pleasure and a privilege to work with the students, parents, and staff of Hawthorne Avenue School. I am driven to provide all the children here the best possible educational experience. The teachers work collaboratively to create a positive, challenging, and academically oriented learning environment for all students. Academic success is not a matter of luck. Parents, you can support your child by checking to make sure that assignments are completed, and staying in contact with your child’s teacher. The consistent support and encouragement of parents result in greater success for all students. I look forward to a successful school year and I believe that together, we can make a difference in the life long learning of your child.
