Hanover Middle School News and Summer Updates 8/11/23
It is hard to believe that we are just a few short weeks away from our amazing students entering the doors of Hanover Middle School. Shortly, students will be learning in their classrooms, playing in the gym, socializing in the cafeteria, and taking advantage of everything that the middle school has to offer. HMS has been busy all summer with FACE camps and courses which end this week. Our administrative team is coming off of a few productive weeks which included trainings, planning and preparing for our students and teachers to have a wonderful 2023-2024 school year!
On Friday, August 18th, HMS will send out homeroom placements via Aspen. Families will receive an email with directions to access your child’s homeroom and team. Families can find the list of team teachers on the Hanover Middle School staff directory.
We look forward to welcoming our incoming 5th grade parents and guardians to our information night at 5:30 pm on August 29th. This evening is designed so families can meet our administrative team, hear what the middle school is about, and ask any questions. If you attended the information night in June, it will be very similar. The main difference will be the questions that families ask. I will also be a bit more specific with the pick-up and drop-off routines. These explicit directions and routines will also be sent home in an email. It is always a great night! Parents/Guardians feel better and get excited about sending their children to Hanover Middle School.
As the summer comes to a close, we are putting the finishing touches on our building, finalizing schedules (students get schedules on the first day), and hiring for our last few positions. We are really excited about our new staff and will be sharing more about them in the September Letter from the Principal.
Our teachers kick off this year with two professional days before the holiday weekend to prepare for our students and set the tone for the school year. We welcome our students back at 7:30 am on Tuesday, September 5th. Please take a look at the upcoming events to see what is going on at HMS (attached).
It is an exciting time of year and I look forward to seeing our 6th, 7th, and 8th grade leaders back at HMS as well as getting to know our new 5th graders and their families. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any and all questions, concerns, or ideas!
The HMS offices will be closed on Monday, August 15th and Tuesday August 16th. Over this summer, we have had quite a bit of work done and we will be repaving the entrance of HMS along with making additional building updates that require access of the building to be closed.
Enjoy the rest of your summer vacation,
Daniel Birolini
Principal
