Dear HHS Community,

We receive a steady trickle of requests from folks looking for Hanover High School gear.  I’m happy to announce that the Hanover High School Online Apparel Store is now open! Order your Hanover High School apparel at HHS Apparel Store.  All items can be customized (or not) for a sport, club, activity or class year of your choice.  Items ship quickly and can arrive to you before the holidays. Shop now for Nike, North Face, and other great brands!  If you have questions about the store, please email megansobel@hanovernorwichschools.org

I hope you have a great weekend!

Did you know that the Friends of Hanover Norwich Schools has been funding special projects and start-up programs in our school district since 1961? These projects are proposed by our creative and dedicated teachers and administrators, and are designed to enrich the student experience. Recent grants have funded a variety of new and innovative projects, including:

  • District-wide curriculum audit
  • Library technologies
  • Coding kits
  • Playground enhancements
  • New courses in sculpture and design technology
  • Recycling initiatives
  • Musical instruments

Grants are made possible with donations from local families. Support the Friends with a year-end charitable contribution, and you will help support our students. http://www.fhns1961.org/

Thank you!

Order your 2020 Yearbook

Online yearbook orders are open. Go to: https://hanoverhigh.picaboo.com to place your order and pay online. Or you can place your order by sending in a check for $65 payable to Hanover High School to Jessica Eakin (in the library).

 

Senior Parents!

The yearbook has several features specifically for seniors:

  • Parent Ads: Go to Picaboo to purchase and design your parent ad. Parent ads go at the end of the yearbook and are a message you send to your child or to the class of 2020. Learn about purchasing and designing your ad. 

  • Senior Photos: The yearbook uses student ID photos, but seniors can submit an alternative photo. The photo does not have to be a professional photo. Send alternative senior photos to: jessica.eakin@hanovernorwichschools.org

  • Senior Sections: Every senior gets a third of a page to design. Seniors will learn more about creating their senior section at a class meeting in November. Students are responsible for creating their senior sections. 

We are still in need of host families for the New England Music Festival-being hosted at Hanover High School March 19-21. Please email our housing chair Bettina Read at 2020nemfahousing@gmail.com  if you can host 2 students for their stay! Approximately 400 students need to be placed in caring homes.

JSEP is supported by a National Science Foundation grant to Dartmouth College. Travel, lodging and meals are provided at no cost to selected students.

Seeking host family for Rotary Exchange student

Our Rotary exchange student needs to experience different homes. We need a home for Jan/Feb/March and April/May/June.

PSAT scores available

 

For those who took the PSAT, scores will be available via CollegeBoard on December 9. Students will login (or create an account) to view scores. Your student will be using this account until the end of high school, so the counselors urge them to keep track of their username and password.

 

Counselors will offer a short presentation on Friday, December 6 during Activity Period in the Auditorium to review how to access and use your PSAT scores to prepare for the SAT

 

LOOKING FOR SKI INSTRUCTORS

In coordination with the Lebanon Rec Department, Storr’s hill in Lebanon, NH offers a 9 week lesson program on Monday/Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings. We are looking for staff to teach skiing and snowboard lessons for kids age 4-17 years old. Positions can be paid or volunteer. Paid training is offered during December break. If interested, please contact Gary Summerton, ski school director.  gary.garysummerton@gmail.com

Thank you to all who have supported Youth-in-Action with your time or financial support. We truly cannot do it without this community.  We have a link here if you would like to donate to our community service opportunities available to HHS students throughout the year.
