What Hawthorne Elementary School does

Hawthorne Elementary School is a public K-2 elementary school located at 225 Memorial Drive in Hawthorne, New York, operating as a constituent school of the Mount Pleasant Central School District. The school serves approximately 300-400 students in kindergarten through second grade, supported by 121 total personnel including roughly 80+ faculty, aides, specialists, office staff, nurses, and support personnel. The school delivers a comprehensive instructional program covering language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, STEM, visual arts, performing arts, physical education, and health, aligned to New York State Education Department standards. Core curricula include Fundations Literacy, UFLI Word Recognition, Writing Fundamentals, Eureka Math2, STEMscopes, Patterns of Power Grammar, The Integrated Social Studies/ELA Program, and The Great Body Shop Health Program. After second grade, students feed into Columbus Elementary for grades 3-5, then Westlake Middle School and Westlake High School within the same district.

The school's operational technology stack is built around consumer-grade and education-sector platforms rather than proprietary systems: ClassLink provides single sign-on, Google Classroom handles learning management, Follett Destiny manages the library catalog, and School Dismissal Manager tracks attendance and dismissal. STEM instruction incorporates Lego Spike Essential Robotics kits for hands-on coding education. The school is supported by Lower Hudson Regional Information Center (LHRIC) for technology integration and Putnam | Northern Westchester BOCES for curriculum and professional development resources. Communication with families runs through the district website, ParentSquare, social media accounts, and two newsletters — the Superintendent's Wildcat Weekly and the school-level Hawthorne Happenings.

The school operates as a tax-funded government entity within the Mount Pleasant Central School District, receiving revenue through local property taxes, state aid, and federal education funding with no tuition charged to district residents. Ancillary revenue includes a free meals program (breakfast and lunch for all students, reimbursed by New York State for the 2025-2026 school year) and a school supply partnership with A'Hartz for optional pre-packaged bundles. The school is governed by the Mount Pleasant Central School District Board of Education and led at the building level by Principal Anthony Carolini and Assistant Principal Erica Denman. District-level leadership is provided by Superintendent Dr. Peter Giarrizzo, who has announced retirement at the conclusion of the 2026-2027 academic year.
