There is truly no town like Hawthorne, and that has clearly been made evident over the course of the last few months, where Hawthorne rallied together to support a fellow Bear.

Hawthorne High School has stood together to help Carter Mascis, a senior, as he fights his strong fight against cancer. The Hawthorne High School coordinated “Clips 4 Carter” where anyone, boys and girls, can shave their head to match Carter.

Recently, Vice Principal, Craig Jandoli, got his locks shaved, with Carter Mascis doing the honors. This moving and symbolic event goes to show just how united Hawthorne is, and how very much it is like a family.
