Important Notices

The Hanover School Building Committee is charged by the Town of Hanover to oversee the design and completion of the proposed new Hanover High School building as well as review, summarize and provide future recommendations for the system wide school facilities as authorized under Article 53 by the 2007 Annual Town Meeting.

The Committee will work closely with the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) to ensure they follow the guidelines given by them to design and build to completion a new high school.

Special Announcement

On September 8th, the town will hold a special town meeting to discuss a number of items, including the consideration of a new High School. If this passes, we will have a ballot vote on Tuesday, September 16th.

The Hanover School Building Committee has worked on this process since 2003 and we ask that you review our work and consider this project. The current Hanover High School was built in 1958 and no longer meets the needs of the town. We as a town have studied this as far back as 1978 with the first building committee and are the first High School project approved to move forward by the Mass School Building Authority under their new regulations.

The Authority has validated our need, approved a new High School project, and is working with us to provide Hanover the best building while respecting the rising costs of building projects. If you have read anything on this, you are aware that the State has very limited monies and we are lucky to be this far along in the process.

We will be holding a number of resident forums starting Wednesday, August 20th at 6 PM and 8 PM in the Hanover High School auditorium. This meeting will present building plans, site plans and allow residents to review the project and understand the need. We hope to have a project cost shortly and look forward to moving the process forward.

Chris Martin
Chair, School Building Committee
