At English High School, she went by Ellie. At Jeremiah E. Burke High School, she introduced herself as Daniella. But the authorities have now learned that Ellie and Daniella were the aliases for Shelby Hewitt, a 32-year-old former state social worker who they say posed as a high school student at three Boston public schools — where she gossiped with teenagers during lunch and complained about homework. On Tuesday, she was charged with three counts of forgery of documents, two counts of false writing and one count of identity fraud in West Roxbury Division Boston Municipal Court, records show. Ms. Hewitt — who enrolled under different aliases in the 2022-2023 school year at English, Jeremiah E. Burke, and Brighton High schools by forging paperwork — had not been arrested as of Thursday, according to the Boston Police Department, which declined to answer questions about the case.
