ounded in 1915, Hawken School is an independent, nonsectarian, coed day school of 1,400 students, toddler through grade 12, located on two campuses in the eastern suburbs of Cleveland — a campus on Cleveland’s west side, and an additional urban extension center located in University Circle. In August of 2020, Hawken will open The Mastery School of Hawken, which will take Hawken’s experiential, problem-based programming to scale in the heart of Cleveland. Hawken offers nationally recognized programming and non-traditional schedules to support experiential learning and innovative teaching. Partnerships with world-renowned institutions offer real-world learning opportunities and connect students to their local and global communities. Immersive experiences including honors-level engineering and entrepreneurship courses and STEMM internships instill in students the skills needed to thrive in an increasingly complex and dynamic world. The school takes seriously its motto of “Fair Play” and its mission of “Forward-focused education for the real world through the development of character and intellect.”

Instilling in students the skills they need to become successful adults is a top priority at Hawken. But we believe that who students become is just as important as what they become. We intentionally create our innovative programming and our community culture of inclusiveness in ways that inspire our students to go out and be good people who do good things in the world.
