Hawthorne Elementary School

ABOUT HAWTHORNE

Hawthorne School is proud to be a California Distinguished School, serving students in grades kindergarten through grade eight. The school was established in the 1920’s, and during the 2000-2001 school year 897 students were enrolled on a traditional schedule. In addition to core curriculum, K-5 students receive enrichment in art, music, physical education and technology. The middle school (grades 6-8) is a "school within a school," as students receive instruction in a homeroom and in individual subject areas. Middle school students choose from a variety of elective classes to supplement core instruction.

The mission of the BHUSD, the heart of our city’s pride and excellence, is to ensure that our students are humane, thinking, productive citizens through an educational system characterized by state-of-the-art technology; a dynamic interdisciplinary curriculum; an exemplary instructional and support team; student centered active learning; respect for diversity; strong parent and community involvement; and a nurturing environment where all share a common purpose and a joy of learning.
