student Life

Join us in celebrating the athleticism and teamwork displayed by Hewitt's junior varsity and varsity athletes this winter! It was an incredible season for the Hewitt Hawks, with varsity squash and varsity indoor track and field advancing to their respective championships, and J.V. basketball bringing home a championship win! Go, Hawks!

National Girls and Women in Sports Day celebrates the extraordinary role athletics play in the lives of girls and young women. At Hewitt, our sports programs guide students not only to become better athletes, but also to develop into strong women who can tackle any situation they face. 

Students from the Seventh Grade Lunar New Year Committee share their experiences organizing an event for their middle school peers to learn about the foods, customs, and attire that accompany traditional Lunar New Year celebrations.

We are thrilled to announce that Loris N. Adams will be Hewitt’s next director of equity and community life, effective July 1, 2020. Loris brings to Hewitt an impressive breadth of knowledge and deep, relevant experience that makes her exceptionally prepared to lead Hewitt’s diversity, equity and inclusivity efforts.

Hewitt Robotics Team 11442N created an inspiring video to shed light on the lack of women in STEM fields and to highlight how, through robotics, "students are able to get engineering experience...creating a space for a love of technology to grow." 

The Hewitt Innovation Lab is designed to be a space for students and teachers to explore meaningful ways of making — to make with a purpose. Research shows that many girls and women want to learn how to use technology skills to accomplish meaningful goals, such as pursuing artistic expression, solving a problem, or thinking differently about academic concepts. 

We are pleased to announce that Terell Cooper-Edwards will be Hewitt’s next head of lower school, effective July 1, 2020. Terell eagerly looks forward to joining the Hewitt community next year to work alongside our wonderful lower school teachers, families, and students in kindergarten through fourth grade.

To inspire all students to act in ways that are personally significant and beneficial to those around them, members of Hewitt's Student Service Board spent the fall educating and engaging our lower and middle school students in school-wide service work.
