Hawken Welcomes Students from Chile

Hawken recently hosted 10 students and 2 teachers from the Thomas Jefferson School in Concepción, Chile for a cultural and language immersion experience.

Each year, the entire sophomore class at the Thomas Jefferson school takes a 3-week trip to Washington, D.C. followed by a 2-week homestay. During their time with host families the Chilean students practice their English and learn about the similarities and differences between cultures.

This is the fifth year of the exchange with the Thomas Jefferson School and the second time that Hawken has hosted students. During their September 12-24 stay, Chilean students attended classes with their host students and experienced other parts of Hawken life such as athletics games and the ropes course.
