Athletics
Brian O’Dea ’13 remarks about athletics at Hyde boarding school.
Hyde athlete Brian O’Dea ’13 doing the high jump in track and field
“When I went to the public school in town sports were all about being gifted and having the ability. Those who had the talent made the team, and the closest others could get to playing was watching from the sidelines. At Hyde School we all play three sports a year, each one bringing a new and exciting challenge, and new opportunities for each of the athletes. For me, Track and Field has been an amazing experience. From jumping over bars, to leaping over hurtles, track and field at Hyde has taught me the meaning of hard work, and what it is to be part of a team.”

Academics

Aine Zaniewski ’13 on academics at Hyde.
“The academic day is centered around 6 class rotations and a two-hour study hall each night. The grading system takes into account the effort in and outside of the classroom through our “Effort over Achievement” Philosophy. It is extremely convenient having almost all of the faculty on campus as well; last year my math teacher was my wing parent so it was easy for me to walk across the door and ask for homework help. There are office hours multiple times a week, and the teachers are always willing to help and are very supportive. Teachers at Hyde work alongside the students in order to achieve understanding of the subject. “

Weekends
Maureen Bellwoar ’13
Maureen Bellwoar ’13 talks about weekends in Woodstock.
“The weekends at Hyde are a time for me to relax, catch up, and have fun. In my free time I love to hang out in the girls lounge and watch movies, play video games, read, or just talk to friends. The relationships I have here with faculty are awesome, I often spend time on weekends with different faculty, either spending time in their homes with their kids, or going on Target or Dunkin’ Donut runs. Saturday nights I like to hang out with people I normally don’t see during the days. Sunday I often post up in my room with food and books, and take breaks to hang out and do some of the off campus activities that are offered.”
