Life Changing – A Hyde School Parent Reflection on Growth and Gratitude

A Hyde School Parent Reflection

This story comes from a Hyde School parent whose experience through Hyde’s Family Learning Center brought lasting transformation for her family and herself.

Hyde School Parent Story

Marie Mintz, Hyde School alumni parent, whose Hyde experience transformed not only her son’s path but her own approach to parenting and family.

As many others have said, the Hyde School experience was truly life changing.

When I enrolled my son, my initial intention was simple: to get him “fixed” and back on track to graduate high school and head to college. What I didn’t realize was that I would also be transformed by the experience.

It was as if a curtain had been drawn back, revealing what truly matters at the center of family life — not just a set of rules, but guiding principles like truth, courage, and humility. At Hyde School, I was both challenged by hard truths and lovingly supported as I learned to make meaningful changes in my parenting.

Many of the words and lessons we practiced at Hyde continue to guide me today. I am forever grateful for the wisdom, community, and deep commitment to growth that Hyde provided for its students and families.
