MSS TRY students volunteered in our @District_73 food pantry yesterday. Their communication and collaboration skills came in handy👌 Thanks @ElemNorthD73 for hosting us! #become1 #D73inspires #bettertogether @HawthornMSS

Another Wednesday, another Flex Day! Today students learned about expected academic behaviors in middle school. Loved seeing students participating in fun skits and engaging classroom discussions 👏🏼 #SOARlikeaneagle🦅 @HawthornMSS

[Lauren Brownstein @MrsBrownsteinSW]

Yesterday, students learned about school wide expectations in common areas using our district-wide acronym S.O.A.R. (Safe, On-Task, Act Responsibly, Respect). Our first SEL flex day was a success! #soarlikeaneagle 🦅 @HawthornMSS

@HawthornMSS and @HawthornMSN73 7th & 8th grade TRY students learned that communication, collaboration, and perseverance are essential for becoming effective leaders. Summer training ✅ Excited for the 2022-2023 school year to begin, starting with 6th grade orientation! 👍🏼

The @HawthornMSS teachers vs. students basketball game was close, but the teachers held on for a 14-13 win over the eighth-grade basketball team. Better luck next time, students! 🏀⛹️‍♀️⛹️‍♂️

[Hawthorn District 73 @District_73]

Starting today, seventh and eighth-grade TRY (Teens Reaching Youth) students from @HawthornMSS are visiting Hawthorn School for Young Learners on a weekly basis to join the kindergarteners during lunch and recess. The kindergarteners really look up to the older kids!

Huge thanks to @DrMartinHSYL for giving our 7th and 8th grade TRY students a tour of HSYL. We can’t wait to start our mentoring program next week!! @HawthornMSS #become1

[Hawthorn District 73 @District_73]

This year's TRY Leadership Conference, held via Zoom this year, was a huge success. Ted Wiese, a youth motivational speaker, taught 8th grade middle school students about the keys to leadership. #D73inspires #become1 @HawthornMSN73 @HawthornMSS

[Lauren Brownstein @MrsBrownsteinSW]

Can't wait! Jackie Rhew is so knowledgable, informative, and engaging. We are lucky to have her as a Hawthorn guest this week. Do not worry if you are unable to make it, we will have a saved recording of the presentation!

[Lauren Brownstein @MrsBrownsteinSW]
