Extracurricular Activities
Freedom to flourish
The Hawken Upper School experience is enriched by an array of extracurricular artistic, academic, and
service opportunities. Students gain leadership skills and the reward of close friendships through
activities like tutoring young children, competing in speech and debate tournaments, producing the
school newspaper together, and being teammates on the athletic courts or playing fields.
(Please learn more about Upper School Athletics.) To contact a faculty advisor, please email them from our faculty/staff directory.
