The principal is too busy trying to be the kids friend than actually doing her job and keeping the schedule functional.

My daughter second year. She is a honor roll student. She has a lot of supports from her teachers. Thank you. All the teachers

My experience at Hawthorne Middle School has not been the best. The classes are extremely overcrowded and the kids are not getting all they can because of this reason. I often check my son and his friend s social websites and see many jokes about how they go to school and do nothing. I would not recommend this school; if you have the choice I would think obtaining a permit to go to another district would be much better. If you have to stay within the district it would be best to stay in close contact with your child s teachers.
