Hawthorn School provides an education...
I attended Hawthorn School for Girls for 9 years, from Grade 5 through to OAC/grade 13 at the time. It's really only after leaving Hawthorn that I realized how much I had been spared from the public school system; in what could have been very impressionable and difficult years, I am so thankful that I was given the chance to develop into the type of person that I wanted to be, not what other students - or teachers, for that matter - thought I should be.
This is a school for mature students and likewise parents; it's a school that is very serious about educating girls into being true women, adults that are equipped and willing to contribute to their families, their communities, and to greater society. Whether you're Catholic or not, Hawthorn takes the time to challenge students to think about higher elements in life. It rightly believes that education should be more than mathematics and literature; it also includes trying to better understand who we are as individuals, what our higher purpose might be, and what we can do more to be the greatest person possible.
Hawthorn School remains a gem in Toronto, a school that I highly recommend to parents and girls who are serious about becoming true achievers in the world.
