Our Campus Story

From the Mill to the Hill

Hawbridge’s home in Saxapahaw reflects the school’s deep connection to place, community, and the Haw River.

Our Lower School is located in a restored textile mill along the Haw River. In 2021, Hawbridge expanded across the road with the opening of the Upper School, creating two campuses that serve students from kindergarten through grade 12 while remaining one connected school community.
