Spotlight on...
Alicia Hawk had been a member of the Oakwood School’s family for many years. She is the parent of two Oakwood graduates and the “adoptive” parent of one of Oakwood’s partnership students from China. During her years at The Oakwood School, Alicia was on the Board of Trustees, the Director of Development and led the Advancement Team. For her tireless efforts and dedicated service to The Oakwood School family, PSA was proud to honor Alicia with a PSA Service Award.

Thank you so much for your remarkable work and for truly making a difference in the world, Alicia. You will be missed!
