Mission Statement

The mission of the School Counseling and Special Services Departments in the Hanover Regional High School District is to help all students reach their highest academic potential, set post-secondary college and career goals, and maintain positive social, emotional, and character development. The departments work to make their office suites supportive and welcoming environments. Counselors and case managers collaborate with parents/guardians, teachers, administrators, and the community to provide a comprehensive support system that meets the varied needs of students. 

Counselor Roles and Responsibilities

Counselors are available to assist students with academic planning, college and career goals, and personal/social development. Counselors collaborate regularly with teachers and are available for conferences with parents/guardians. Please reach out to your counselor via phone or email if you have questions or would like assistance.

  • exploration of personal, college, and career goals and how to achieve them

  • transition from middle school to high school

  • development of successful work and study habits

  • development of peer relationships
