March 7

SPRING BREAK
Families are reminded that our Spring Break begins on Monday, March 13th.  Students and staff will return to school on Monday, March 27th.  We hope that the break provides all of you with plenty of time for fun and relaxation.

REPORT CARDS
Parents are advised that report cards are being sent home today.  Once again our kindergarten to grade 4 students will be receiving the new "pilot" report card which continues to take shape.  The second term edition attempts to highlight the learning focus, student abilities and next steps.  The Delta School District is gathering parent feedback and survey forms will be provided after Spring break.

TALENT SHOW
Hawthorne will be hosting its annual Talent Show on Thursday, March 9th at approximately 1:30pm.    We have had a great response so far and more participants than any other year. If your child is participating, please ensure that he/she is prepared with their proper equipment, outfit or music for the show. We hope that your schedule allows you to attend.

VISITORS
Please consider the following when visiting Hawthorne:
  • be sure to check in at the office whenever you visit Hawthorne during the day so that our office staff can provide you with a visitor's badge.  
  • if you would like to meet with a teacher,  please book in advance as impromptu meetings in the hallway can lead to delays in the classroom
  • student lunches can be dropped off on the table provided outside the office 
  • our library will be open to families at 8:30am from Tuesday-Thursday
Thank you in advance for your consideration as we all works to foster a safe and welcoming school community.
