Commencement ceremonies were held on the front lawn of HHS on Thursday, May 26, 2016. Congratulations goes out to the 99 students who crossed the stage to become our newest alumni. A special congratulations to Hannah Markle, Valedictorian, and Nathan Klunk, Salutatorian of the class of 2016. Not only did these fine Nighthawks achieve the highest grade point average, but they did so taking the most rigorous courses that high school has to offer. Congratulations to both of them for this outstanding and hard-earned achievement.

The 2016 Hanover High School Oak Leaf Award was given to Kyle Krout and Madeline Hammond. The Oak Leaf award is a prestigious and unique award in that it is given to a young man and young woman who consistently display outstanding character. Both Madeline and Kyle are truly outstanding role models for all future Nighthawks to emulate. Congratulations to both of these exceptional students.

Collectively the class of 2016 was awarded over 1.5 million dollars in scholarships. This is an impressive achievement for a class of 99 students, and is a great illustration of the remarkable achievements earned by the students of Hanover High School.

To the class of 2016, it is with great pride that I send you off to pursue your dreams. I want to remind you to remember the past fondly, letting go of regrets. Plan for your future, but don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will take care of itself. Live in the present and enjoy the “right now.” Right now is where life happens.
