Hanover High School Eighth Grade Open House 2020 12/9/20

I just wanted to touch base and update you on our up-coming Eighth-Grade Virtual Open House.  Originally, we had hoped to air our presentation on Thursday, December 10, 2020; however, some of the project remains in production, so we’d like to push-out our release date a week to Thursday, December 17, 2020, at 5:00 pm.  In the meantime, should you have any questions, or if you’d like any information prior to this release date, please do not hesitate to contact the main office at 781-878-5450. 

Please know that I’m in regular contact with the middle school, and I receive regular communications and information with regards to student performance; that said, I want to express how deeply proud I am of the academic fortitude and resiliency every eighth grader has shown throughout these challenging times.  On behalf of the high school faculty and staff, I’d like to say that we trust in each of you.  We believe in all that you’ve achieved, and we eagerly anticipate all that you will accomplish here at Hanover High School. 

Prior to the Holiday break, I’d like to offer you this sentiment:

At the high school, we hold that academic education is essential but equally as important is the care of our emotional and social wellbeing.  As Aristotle notes, “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.”  In considering this concept, we now move into the colder months of winter and deeper into the academic terms of the year; throughout this time, it is my hope and my belief that together we’ll continue to advance our minds, and together we’ll continue to warm our hearts. 

Be warm.  Be safe.
