Hyde School

In many ways, Hyde boarding schools are “traditional” independent boarding schools—from our challenging academic standards to our athletic teams to our extra-curricular and leadership opportunities, life at Hyde is all about striving to be the best possible you. But there’s even more to Hyde. Our renowned character education program is designed to help students discover their strengths and grow as confident, prepared leaders. Many schools focus on achievement first, and character second. We believe that for students to succeed—now and for the rest of their lives—they must develop the values, habits, and resilience that are the hallmarks of strong character. Hyde’s founding principles are Courage, Integrity, Leadership, Curiosity and Concern. These principles are at the core of everything we teach, and it’s this focus on character education that makes our school distinctive.
