Hawken has two campuses, the "Lower School" in Lyndhurst and the "Upper School" in Gates Mills. The school was founded in 1915 by its namesake, James A. Hawken. Hawken has a long-standing rivalry with nearby University School, difficult coursework, and good athletics (especially men's soccer and women's swimming).

The school's motto is "That the better self shall prevail, and each generation introduce its successor to a higher plane of life," and a sign reading "Fair Play" hangs in each classroom on both campuses.
