Celander Trailer Court

During our Kindergarten year, the time at this school was great. The teachers were very good and we had no issues. However, in 1st grade my child was diagnosed on the spectrum and needed a 504/IEP to help her through the next coming years at this school. The teacher was awful, giving no support and trying to blame myself as a single parent for my child’s learning difficulties. The special education teacher at the time was extremely belittling and the Principal offered no assistance during the meeting. It was only after I found a Special Needs Advocate and brought these wonderful ladies to the next meeting that the school immediately 180 on their attitude towards myself and my child and offered aide. Yet with the following weeks of disdain towards myself and my kids, I soon withdrew her from the school and moved to a more healthy district where she could get the help she needed without biases.

Hawthorne is such a great school! The art based curriculum is so great!! The staff at Hawthorne Is amazing! We are so lucky to be a part of this school!

This is the best school that my son has ever attended! If you have to chance to send your child to this school you really can't ask for anything more!

I wish every kid in the neighborhood could feel like they belong in this school

We are new to the area and my children went to a prestigious private school, so I was nervous initially, but this place is a hidden gem. The school is small and they manage their classrooms really well. The school boundaries have been changed, so there is a better mix of families and commitment from parents. They are big on growing the whole child socially and academically. My daughter loves her new school and how she gets rewarded for doing her best. This is an exceptional school and I couldn't be happier to send my daughter to Whittier! Bravo to the new principal and all the teachers!

My daughter loves going to Little People's! All the staff is very friendly and helpful.
