The Hyde Learning Promise
At Hyde, we believe education extends beyond mastering academic content; it is about cultivating intellectual character and preparing students for a lifetime of growth and discovery. In addition to striving for excellence in the classroom and committing to their intellectual endeavors, Hyde students are expected to embrace the following principles: Lifelong Learning: Demonstrate a genuine desire to continue learning throughout their lives. Intellectual Risk-Taking: Challenge themselves by selecting courses that honor their academic performance and potential while fostering growth in intellectual character and work ethic. Peer Support: Act with concern and compassion, supporting classmates as they face academic challenges. Leadership: Take initiative and leadership roles both in the classroom and within the broader school community. High Standards: Maintain high expectations for themselves and their peers, fostering an environment of mutual respect and excellence. What Sets Hyde Apart Hyde’s academic experience is enriched by several unique features that set it apart from traditional educational programs: Self-Assessments: Students engage in self-assessments to evaluate their effort and growth in the classroom, fostering self-awareness and accountability. Focus on Writing: The curriculum places a strong emphasis on the craft of writing, helping students develop clarity, creativity, and confidence in their written expression. Commitment to the Arts: With resources like a state-of-the-art recording studio and workshops for singers and songwriters, Hyde integrates the performing arts into the academic experience, encouraging creative expression and exploration. Public Speaking: Students are consistently exposed to high-quality opportunities for public speaking, helping them build confidence and communication skills essential for leadership and success. Our Philosophy By focusing on who students are, rather than just what they can do, Hyde’s academic program enriches minds, builds confidence, and equips students with the tools to excel both in the classroom and in life. This holistic approach ensures that every Hyde student is prepared to lead with integrity, embrace challenges, and contribute meaningfully to the world around them.
