HELPs > Hawthorn Early Learning Program

Hawthorn PreKindergarten and Early Childhood programs are a coordinated learning opportunity to better meet the needs of 180 preschool children and their families within the Hawthorn Community. HELPS is housed at Aspen Elementary, 500 N. Aspen Drive in Vernon Hills.

During the 1990-1991 school year, Hawthorn District 73 applied for and received a grant from the state of Illinois for a State Funded Preschool. We currently serve 120 children in this program. Beginning in 2008, we added a program of Early Childhood Special Education, through which we provide Special Education services to 60 children.

Children must be screened and determined eligible for either HELPs classroom situations. If you are interested in participating in HELPs, please complete and return the Inquiry Form.
