Welcome to The Hewitt School website. I hope that you will take the time to
visit many areas of the site where you will learn about our school, its
programs, students, curriculum and most important, mission and philosophy. The
Hewitt School, founded in 1920, is committed to the education and development
of young women who will be the leaders of the future. Our motto - "By Faith and
Courage" - demonstrates the essence of a Hewitt education, with its emphasis on
self-knowledge and confidence as well as courage to move forward with energy
and enthusiasm.
The mission of the Hewitt School is to provide a challenging and exciting
educational program for our students. We encourage our girls to be creative and
independent thinkers, to challenge their assumptions and to be risk-takers. At
Hewitt we pride ourselves on knowing our students as the individuals that they
are and in helping each girl develop her fullest potential. As our school motto
suggests, we want our students to have faith in themselves and to demonstrate
courage, responsibility, and leadership.
This website will allow you to learn more about our academic curriculum,
athletic programs, and creative arts, as well as about our diverse students and
their myriad activities. I want to draw attention to the broad array of
community service initiatives which are undertaken yearly and are integral to
the philosophy of the school. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to
read profiles of faculty and administration. There are also sections devoted to
facilities, both current and planned, and to the important fundraising efforts
needed to move forward with the goals which we have set through our strategic
plan, "A Vision for Hewitt."
We have a phrase which describes our school; we say, "Hewitt is on the move!"
It is our hope that your visit to the school through this website will help you
understand the spirit and vision of Hewitt.
Sincerely yours,
Linda MacMurray Gibbs
Head of School
