Hyde School is a high school like no other. Hyde school is emotionally demanding. Character education is one of the largest elements of the Hyde philosophy, and is practiced every day in student life. Upon leaving Hyde you wonder how some of the things you've been through or learned will help you later in life. Less than a year later I can say that Hyde has shaped the independent and driven college student that I have become. These traits have been earned not through rigorous academics, but through the experiences I had at Hyde working with and challenging my peers, advocating for myself, creating lifelong connections with students as well as faculty, and so much more. Hyde students have a connection with each other that is unlike any other, whether or not you were at Hyde at the same time, or whether or not you enjoyed your Hyde experience, there is a shared experience unlike any other that Hyde Alumni/former Hyde students share.

I graduated from Hyde in 2016 after spending my senior year there. I love the focus on character development and how the school incorporates families as a major part of the student's lives. Family weekend is a center of growth and development in one's deepest and important relationships of all, parents. I got to be challenged in a safe environment and grow as a person there. One thing that Hyde could change would be to offer more AP classes. I transferred from a school that had 16 AP options and it was a shame to not be challenged in the same way academically and having the option to take as many classes as I hoped to.
Hyde School has weak academics but a good overall vision. The character-based education that this school aims to provide sets it apart from any other high school. By requiring students to participate in year-long athletics and performing arts, they encourage kids to step out of their comfort zone and become well-rounded young adults.
