Hanover Schools

Dear families, I hope this letter finds you well. As we dive into the fall season, I wanted to take a moment to update you on some important announcements and celebrate the achievements of our students. First and foremost, I am thrilled to share the exciting news about the upgrades we have received at the Football Complex. Thanks to the hard work of Inline Construction, we now have a beautiful platform in front of the crows nest. This new addition provides a fantastic viewing area to enjoy watching our football games. I encourage you all to come and experience it for yourselves this Friday versus Axtell! I also wanted to remind you that on October 13th, we will have an 11:30 dismissal for students. This is to ensure that our teachers have ample time to prepare for the upcoming parent-teacher conferences, which will take place on October 19th, starting at 12:30. These conferences are a valuable opportunity for us to discuss your child's progress and set goals for their academic success. Please mark your calendars and make arrangements to attend. In addition, I want to inform you that there will be no school on October 20th. This day will also serve as Senior Night for our football game against Frankfort. It will be a special evening honoring our senior players and their contributions to our team. We hope to see you there, cheering on our athletes and celebrating their achievements. Now, let's take a moment to celebrate the accomplishments of our students. I am delighted to announce that Garrett Martin has been awarded the Kindness Award for the week. Garrett consistently demonstrates a kind and helpful attitude, always willing to lend a hand to his peers and teachers. We commend him for his exemplary behavior and encourage all our students to follow his example. Lastly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all our families for your continued partnership. Your support and involvement play a crucial role in creating a positive learning environment for our students. We appreciate your dedication to their education and look forward to working together throughout the school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for taking the time to read this newsletter, and have a wonderful week ahead! Go Wildcats! Cory Jensen Principal

Unfortunately due to lightning in the area, the bonfire will be cancelled as well. The Homecoming parade and pep rally will be a go tomorrow at 2:30 on Main Street! The crowning will take place at 6:30 before the football game. Kickoff will be 7:00. Go Cats!

I just got off the phone with Mr. Jensen. Currently with the lightning in the area, and the band instruments being metal, we don’t feel that it’s a good option for the band to play tonight. So the Band will not play tonight. They have not made an official call on the bonfire. They will make that at 8 o’clock.

With the rain we are currently receiving, we do not want to risk any injury, the Powder Puff game has been cancelled. We will make the call on the bonfire at 8:00. Thanks
