Academics
CURIOSITY — CONFIDENCE — CHALLENGE
Hyde School offers an individualized approach to academics with the goal of developing lifelong learners who demonstrate intellectual curiosity, who have confidence in their academic potential, and who challenge themselves as they prepare for success in college and beyond.
Curiosity is built upon Hyde's Learning Triangle where the student, teacher, and subject are at the core of a student's intellectual pursuits. The triangle recognizes the powerful student-teacher bond that is formed through exploring the subject matter.
Confidence is build in the Hyde classroom when our students partner with our experienced faculty to pursue academic and personal excellence in the classroom. Students are evaluated at each marking period with an effort grade, reflecting the student's learning attitude and character in the classroom, and an achievement grade that represents a student's comprehension of the course material.
Challenge happens in the classroom when students are asked to step outside their academic comfort zones. Students are encouraged to stretch their academic muscle by taking rigorous courses, demonstrating leadership in the classroom, and maintaining high expectations for themselves and their classmates.
