The Hawthorne High School Forum Has Closed

The Hawthorne High School Forum has been in operation since April 7, 2007. Unfortunately, after a great run, it saddens me to make the decision to close its doors.

During the 7 years it has been in operation (I'm writing this 2 days short of its aniversary), I have enjoyed this project with all my heart. I have met an over-abundance of fantastic individuals here, as well as re-kindled precious relationships from years past. My aim was to create a safe place for Hawthornites of every age to come and interact, without worrying about personal information being sold or shared. I have always kept that promise.

But, like most great things, this site has had its day. Many of the large social networking sites can fulfill the objectives I have set out to provide with greater resources, although the personal privacy issue is something you all need to keep in mind.

Of course, this is not really goodbye, since I will still be interacting with most of you through the larger social networking sites.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the great times and interaction.
