Message from our Principal
Hello All,
We have moved internships and other outside programs to our community interest link. Please check it out. Community Interest Link!
Tuesday November 5th is election day and Hanover High School is the voting site for Hanover, so please plan ahead for increased traffic at pick-up and drop-off. For some of us, this will be our first opportunity to participate in a national election. As the principal of a democratic high school, for me seeing our students register to vote and participate in our country’s democracy is a sort of graduation in its own right.
At the same time, I cannot help but have November 6th on my mind. This election season has been especially polarizing. I worry that this polarization may lead to divisive behavior on November 6th especially on social media.
Let us remember that we have more in common than we often acknowledge. That differences in opinion are a strength of our country, not a weakness. That we have the opportunity to look at the world a different way, to learn something new or see an issue from another angle. Please, before you post or comment, take a moment. What you post reflects who you are as a person and it is part of your digital footprint.
I have a great deal of faith in our community that no matter the outcome of the election we will treat each other with respect, in person and online. Instead of reacting or writing or saying something that tears someone down, I challenge each of us to reflect on ourselves and to move forward and help make the change we want to see in the world. Be an active citizen!
