This is the Hawthorne II Bilingual Alternative Handbook’s final draft after the revisions and discussions that occurred during the year 2007-2008. The principles and working points stand as they are and should be respected. And yet, it continues to be a work in progress. Any member of our community who wishes to take issue with aspects of the handbook should bring their ideas to a school council meeting or should write in the comments section of this entry.
When some point warrants it, a committee can be formed to fine-tune it further, as is currently the case with the dialectic around the place of competition and the value of collaboration in our school culture.
