Dear Parents and Guardians:
We welcome you and your family to the Hancock School for the school year.
 
The Hancock School works together with families and the community to provide a strong foundation upon which our children can build the skills and knowledge necessary to prepare them for wherever the world leads them. Our dedicated faculty work tirelessly to create a learning environment filled with respect, love, honesty, and high expectations for academic achievement.
 
Equally critical to our children’s success is the dedicated participation of our students’ families. We invite you to partner with us on this year’s journey to foster academic growth and the development of personal and social responsibility in the lives of our students.
 
In addition to opportunities for family involvement, we provide exemplary regular education instruction, school-wide Title One support, special education, extended day programs and other activities to ensure success for all learners.
 
Sincerely,
Stephen Shaw
Principal
