At the Hewitt School

If Hewitt has bettered us into any condition, state, or character, it would be that of a tea bag. What differentiates Hewitt students is the way we have been taught to approach struggles. We acknowledge the challenge, admit that it will be difficult, but remember that, as teabags, hot water is where we belong. It is where our flavor  – our power and strength – steeps best. 

"I walked out of Hewitt and I said, "No need to look any further. I found the place." Watch this short video to hear from Hewitt parent Kammi Reiss P'10 P'13 and alumna and faculty member Alden Baker '10 about our expert educators, challenging and supportive learning environment, and strong home-school partnership.

We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Jennifer Zaccara as Hewitt's ninth head of school! She will begin her tenure at Hewitt in July 2025. We invite you to get to know Jennifer as a leader and educator and learn more about why she is excited to join the Hewitt community. 

High school has never been a perfectly choreographed routine. It has been full of unexpected beats, missed steps, improvisations, and moments where the music stopped altogether. But the magic was not in getting it perfect. The magic was in how we kept going. We kept dancing. And in doing so, we became.
