Erin’s Law - Student Program and Parent/Guardian Information Night
In response to Erin’s Law (House Bill 6193), which requires all public schools to implement a prevention-oriented child sexual abuse program, Hawthorn District 73 is hosting the Be Seen and Heard© assembly program for all preschool and elementary students during the week of December 4, 2023. This program is designed to create an age-appropriate, safe, and engaging environment in which students learn the difference between safe and unsafe touch, and the importance of having trusted heroes.
Middle School Ala Carte Options
In addition to the daily lunch options, middle school students have access to purchase a limited number of ala carte items. These items are available at the price listed for all students, regardless of meal status. Meal Account funds can be added in K12 PaymentCenter.
