About Hawthorn School

Hawthorn is the only independent, Catholic-inspired, all-girl school in Toronto that provides character education, personal mentorship, and a classical liberal arts education that is university preparatory.

Academics

We respect the shared goals of our students and their families. We pride ourselves not only on preparing the girls for a postsecondary education, with a 100% university acceptance rate, but also on helping them to succeed in their life’s path – no matter what it may be.

Hawthorn School Daycare offers children aged (18 months to 4 years old) a loving, nurturing, and caring environment.

Students in the Junior Program (Junior Kindergarten & Senior Kindergarten) are exposed to a variety of subjects.

IIn the Lower School students develop a love for learning and build social skills and work habits in each area of a well-rounded academic program. 

Hawthorn’s Upper School (Grades 8 to 12) delivers an ambitious liberal arts education, preparing the leaders of tomorrow.
