Hawthorne Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Milwaukee School District school district, located in Milwaukee, WI with about 316 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.
