A note from your Principal:
My name is Guadalupe "Pita" Rodriguez, and I am proud to serve as principal of Hawthorne Academy. Here at Hawthorne we have a long, proud history of servicing students and families. We are located in a vibrant part of the city and enjoy the many benefits this brings through partnerships with places such as the San Antonio Museum of Art and the San Antonio Public Library. As your principal, I am committed to helping insure a safe, productive learning environment for your child to make sure they are Future Ready! We invite you to join our family.
Go Bears!

Hawthorne
Academy is the first school in the San Antonio Independent School
District to have adopted a K-8th grade academy school model. Our ongoing
efforts are receiving recognition throughout the state.
We
have used research, community input, and a history of successful
initiatives to develop a school model that will lead us to our
ultimate goals- an exemplary education for all of our students and
expanded opportunities for all members of the Hawthorne community. Our
purpose as a charter school is to ensure that our students have the
resources, abilities, and inspiration to overcome obstacles, fulfill
obligations, and achieve their dreams.
Every
Hawthorne student will leave with the knowledge, dedication, and
opportunities to be successful in high school and to prepare for a
college education.
As a charter school Hawthorne Academy will:
- Service kindergarten through eighth grade students in a nurturing environment.
- Offer open enrollment to kindergarten through 8th grade students on a space available basis.
- Serve the community as a demonstration site for professional development.
