Hanover Middle School Guidance Office Information 9/9/22

Welcome to Hanover Middle School! We wanted to take a moment to introduce ourselves to you. Each student at HMS is assigned to a Guidance Counselor. This letter is to let you know who we are, what we do, and where you can find us.   

This school year, Mrs. Chebator will work with grades 5 and 7, Mrs. Ward will work with grades 6 and 8 and Mrs. Callahan works with all grade levels.

Students, this is an exciting time in your life. During the next few years, you will face new challenges and grow in many ways. You will gain a great deal of academic knowledge, develop more independence, and form new friendships.

Sometimes, it is helpful to talk with someone about your ideas and concerns. Usually, you share many of your thoughts with your family or friends, but you also have someone here to talk with at school.  Students and parents can make appointments to discuss a variety of topics from small issues to major concerns. For example, we meet with students and parents (alone and/or together) to discuss:

• Academics
• Adolescent concerns
• Anxiety Loss of a loved one
• Bus problems
• Divorce
• Friendships
• Home difficulties
• Peer conflicts
• Social concerns
• and much more

If you would like to schedule an appointment, feel free to stop by the Guidance Office (in the lobby area). You may also call us in the Guidance Office at 781-878-2718.

We look forward to a great year together!
