    As a graduate of The Hyde School I have to say that a day doesn't go by that I don't reflect on…read morethings that I learned at this school. It has had a positive influence on my life as well as my family's. As with everything in life you either get it or you don't. And that defiantly applies to the experience you have at this school. You have to want to work for the positive changes in your life otherwise it won't happen. The teachers and staff work hard at their jobs and give attention to all students. The academics weren't as challenging as the other prep school I attended but I went to Hyde for the character development so it really out weighed anything else. The sports facilities are now top notch. I am a happy alumni and support the school whenever I can -- there is never a time when I close enough that I don't go visit. I still talk with teachers and staff today because they will be forever a part of my life.

    I attended Hyde in the 1990s. I was not a troubled teen, just a kid with self-esteem issues and…read morechildhood trauma. We were told it was a therapeutic program that would help build confidence. That turned out to be a bait and switch. After a summer challenge, I entered the school year expecting support. Instead, I found a brutal, one-size-fits-all system where questioning authority meant punishment. There was nothing personalized or healing about it. You either got in line or were labeled broken. The kids who conformed quickly were rewarded and are still, decades later, defending the place like it's a cult. The school's marketing included slogans about "character," "truth," and "brother's keeper," but it's all surface. The truth is that Hyde used emotional control and public shaming to keep students in line. And they called it growth. I've connected with others from my class through the recent lawsuit. We were all told we were the problem. Turns out the problem was Hyde. If you're a parent, look past the marketing. Ask why so many former students are speaking out. Notice that there are (at the time I've writing this) in addition to all the negative reviews Yelp is showing you, there are also 36 one-star reviews that are hidden because they're "not recommended," and something like 40 more one-star reviews removed because someone flagged them as being 'in violation of Yelp policy'. Long story medium, the overwhelming majority of reviewers here are warning you: do not send your kids to Hyde.
