Have You Ordered A Yearbook for Your Hawthorne Student?

NOW is the time! Yearbooks are being printed as we speak, and we want your child to have one! Not sure if you bought one yet? Check out the the document in the locker section to the left for a list of students who have already ordered.

If you need to order one, please go to the Hawthorne PTA Webstore today!

This year, 92 third, fourth, and fifth graders participated in Hawthorne Elementary School’s third annual Pi Recital. Those students stretched their brains by memorizing as many digits of Pi as possible. The 2014 winner is third grader, Ruth Mathew, who memorized 261 digits of Pi! When asked for her strategy, she said she memorized 36 digits each day for a few weeks. That’s an amazing feat. Congratulations go to Ruth and all Hawthorne participants.

Other students who comprised the top 14 reciters were: third graders Liam Jordan (137), Annie Do (85), Connor Hess (66) and Simon Redfearn (62); fourth graders Tate Milefchik (76) and Noah Jonkman (62); and fifth graders Diego Nunez (162), Ellie Casey (137), Aiden Milefchik (133), Tom Kunst (110), Rocco Picone (91), Katherine Kempker (61), Amaya Rufus (61) and Michael Belletire (61). Pi Day activities at Hawthorne are coordinated by REACH teacher Geri Sorrentino.

The mission of the Hawthorne PTA is to volunteer in the interest of the children, to encourage understanding and cooperation between parents and teachers, and to promote programs that benefit the success of children’s learning.  The Hawthorne PTA supports education through active participation and advocacy.
