Happy Thanksgiving
We would like to wish all of our Hawthorne families a restful Thanksgiving. We are so fortunate to be working with your children every day. We get to witness their brilliance in action as they learn and grow. Our Wildcubs are eager to share their creative ideas and imaginative stories. They have boundless energy and enthusiasm. They are also full of silliness and fun!
Kindergarten Centers
Our kindergarten students are very busy learning in centers. They engage in academic and play centers. One area of focus for our learning is the development of fine motor skills. Students are engaged in a variety of center activities to develop strength and coordination.
Students use tweezers to grab and sort pom poms.
Students practice hole punching.
Students use their whiteboards to practice writing lowercase letters.

Our Brighton parking lot is a busy place each day as students and staff members are entering and exiting the property. Please drive slowly and be on the lookout for others. Please avoid parking in staff parking spaces when dropping off and picking up.
