The middle school classes are really fell put together. The only thing you should reconsider about is the kids and friends along with the teachers mistaking black kids names.

The only school I've seen during the admissions process where the girls are genuinely happy. After 6 years, I can still say my girls absolutely love their school. I would recommend Hewitt to parents who are looking for their daughters to be, thoughtful, independent thinkers, game changers and leaders.

My daughter is in her 9th year at Hewitt and it has been a wonderful experience for her and our family. From day one she, and we, have been seen, heard and supported. The home/ school partnership is strong. Each girl is given the space and tools to become their best selves however that manifests itself. The academic rigor is there and the scope and sequencing of curricula across the divisions feels seamless. I recommend Hewitt to everyone I know with a daughter.

The school had done a few things to pacify the families who asked for some consideration in light of antisemitism. There have been no real changes made. There seem to very few Jewi...

She has enjoyed all of the MANY field trips kindergartners go on (10 + in a year), the incredible arts/music program (the chorus sang with Paul McCartney on SNL!), the afterschool program that offers pr...

A warm, nurturing school that celebrates each student's individual strengths while teaching a solid, core curriculum in a phenomenal manner. Both of my girls LOVE Hewitt and are thriving.
