I have been going to Hawken for four years, and it has been the best opportunity. I came from a small Jewish school, and I wanted to learn more about other cultures; going to Hawken, they teach us about everything. We have several groups, and each culture and religion has a group that meets every two weeks; this lets groups come together and then present at a school meeting to teach others. We have celebrations for all holidays.
