Preparing Graduates
At Merrol Hyde, elementary students
are challenged and encouraged to challenge themselves. Beginning
in kindergarten, all children learn both Spanish and French
languages. Being a K-12 school provides opportunities to interact
in an academic setting with middle and high school students as well as,
building connections, setting expectations, and instilling at a young
age the value of a quality education.
Engaging Minds
To help our students
grow into thoughtful, productive citizens, Merrol Hyde practices the
Paideia teaching philosophy. In addition to conventional
classroom instruction, students regularly participate in Socratic
dialogues called seminars, delving deeper into the values and issues
presented in the curriculum. Large-scale coached projects give
students a chance to synthesize and apply learning in a real and
relevant way.
Developing
Character
Merrol Hyde students enjoy "living
above the line." Working together across curricula and across
grade levels, children from different backgrounds learn to interact in
a healthy, positive environment. The guidance staff, faculty, and
administration convey high expectations to the student body, that it is
never too early to start on the path to becoming the leaders of
tomorrow.
