Welcome to Hawthorne Elementary PTA

The mission of our PTA is to foster parental engagement, provide educational enrichment and offer volunteer opportunities.

As the smallest elementary school in District 200, we pride ourselves in having a close-knit community of parents who are passionate about participating and engaging in our student-body’s education. The dedication of our volunteers is what makes the programs at Hawthorne successful. 

Some of the programming funded by the PTA includes a field trip for every class, a day of science enrichment for grades 1-5, the purchase of books for the school library, assemblies and a contribution to the school climbing wall.

We are accomplishing fun and rewarding things! To help in supporting our mission, please consider joining the PTA today! Click here to join and pay your membership dues.
