It was an average school, but there were lots of fights, bullying, and just general bad people there.

Hanover High School isn't a bad school. Some things I liked was all of the music. Being a musician and someone who is interested in the music career, they helped me learn plenty about the field and what it consists of. Something I would really like to see change is the website they use for assignments. It is very annoying, most of the time it glitches out, and on top of that it will occasionally delete the things you wrote on there making you do it again.

The information listed on this site is NOT accurate. There are 15 AP classes and over 30% of the students are enrolled in them. The test scores are all either higher than or equal to the state average. This school has a metals lab where students receive nationally recognized credentials in machining...
