You were ALL wonderful and I truly enjoyed the play! I also want to take this time to thank all of the parents that worked tirelessly to ensure the play was a success! Kiara Gary, Meg Polanin, Steve Polanin, Megan Ferrara, Laura Phillips, Dajhia Maddox, Melanie De Dios, and ESPECIALLY Hope Foley....thank you for making this experience one that I know the students will carry with them forever!!!
Hawthorne High School Athletic Complex Survey
The Hawthorne Board of Education is required to update its long-range facility plan every five years. We are currently having discussions on what the highest and best use is for all of the property contained within the high school athletic complex. To help guide us in our decision-making process, we are seeking feedback from all students, staff, parents, and community members to get an idea of what improvements you would like to see in the near future. We value our stakeholders' opinions and would greatly appreciate it if you would take just a few minutes to complete this important survey. Participants shall remain anonymous, and the results of the survey will be made public at a later date.

Go Wildcats!
Best Regards,
Mrs. Passero
