Our Mission:

Hawthorne PAC's mission is to enhance the educational experiences and opportunities at Hawthorne Elementary School by supporting educators, staff, and students through fundraising, promotion and implementation of learning experiences in addition to that offered through the regular curriculum. 

Our Purpose:

The purpose of this organization is educational, and directed primarily toward child welfare interests through the support of students, staff, and teachers. 

To accomplish these goals, the Hawthorne PAC seeks volunteer support from community and families as well as conducts fundraisers with proceeds to be spent on:

• Classroom enrichment including funding for field trips, unique experiences, and classroom materials.

• Parent education, outreach, and speaker presentations through newsletters and Parent PAC Meetings

• School improvement in the form of both curriculum enhancement like art, theatre and STEAM programs and facilities improvement like playground equipment, technology and more.
