⛸️❄️ Hawthorne 5th Grade Ice Skating Fun! ❄️⛸️

Our Hawthorne 5th graders hit the ice today, and let’s just say there were lots of falls, lots of laughs, and even more memories made! 😂💙 From wobbly first steps to cruising around the rink, students showed bravery, teamwork, and a great sense of humor, even when the ice won a few rounds. 😉

It was such a fun way to celebrate together before break, and the smiles made every slip worth it.

Wishing all our Hawthorne students and families a safe, relaxing, and joyful winter break! ❄️✨ See you in the new year! 🐯💙❤️
