Hutchison Students Participating in Bridge Builders Program
Girls from rising 7th grade to 9th grade attended the Bridge Builders Summer Leadership Conference, which begins a year-long commitment.
Hutchison middle and upper school girls are becoming stronger leaders through the Bridge Builders program. At least 13 students are participating in the Bridge Builders Summer Leadership Conference, which begins a year-long commitment. The program aims to build leaders who can work together across racial, cultural, religious, and economic divides. For many girls, this is their second or third year as part of the program. As our girls spend part of their summer learning how to make a difference, we know they will use their new knowledge and skills to have a positive impact on the Hutchison campus and the Memphis community.
Below are the students participating in the program this summer:
Carly Gubin ’12 played tennis at Hutchison and learned the importance of being part of a team. As a dentist, she relies on a team when caring for patients.
When our girls come together to serve, amazing things happen. During their service retreat, our 10th graders built strong bonds while making a positive impact across Memphis.
For her myExperience capstone project, Maya Pentecost ’26 adapted Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Masque of the Red Death” into a one-act dark comedy. She wrote the script, designed the production, and collaborated with a cast and crew of Hutchison students and faculty in our arts program and the Institute for Responsible Citizenship to bring it to life.

Through hands-on experiments and collaborations with the Design Lab and Dobbs Farm, teacher Christine Groves is helping our girls in junior kindergarten through fourth grade grow their curiosity, critical thinking, and resiliency.
Through the performing arts, Hutchison inspires girls to become strong communicators, creative thinkers, and compassionate leaders in every part of their lives.
Four rising seniors participated in high-intensity summer programs in subjects including international studies, technological innovation and business, education, and visual arts.
