50 students. 36 hours. 10 Mentors. Hack HW is an overnight event open to any HW high school student, in which participants will collaborate on computer programming projects. Students will spend the majority of the event working with representatives from different tech companies, creating innovative programming projects, and competing for prestigious prizes.

Our goal is to not only encourage students to put their programming skills to practice, but to also provide students who may not have had the opportunity to try computer science with a chance to explore technology and entrepreneurship. We are looking for any driven Harvard-Westlake student, regardless of experience, who is even remotely interested in computer science.
