Beyond the Classroom
Understanding that a rich and challenging program extends beyond the classroom, Hewitt offers abundant opportunities for students to develop their own sense of purpose and passion. Supported by their teachers and classmates, Hewitt girls act with confidence and empathy as they step outside of their comfort zones and embrace new opportunities to learn and grow.

One of the ways we support a sense of belonging in our youngest students is by inviting their parents and guardians into our lower school classrooms. These visits encourage students to see themselves and their families as valuable members of our school who have unique and important knowledge to share with our community.
