Dear Prospective Hanger Hall Families,
Thank you for taking the time to visit our Hanger Hall website. You most likely found yourself at our site because you are researching middle school options for your daughter. No doubt you have begun to experience the thrill-ride of the pre-teen adolescent years, and it has you thinking about the type of educational environment that will be most empowering for your daughter. Beyond the academics you may be wondering about the kinds of activities that will help build your daughter’s self-confidence and self-esteem. You may even be recalling your own middle school experience and hoping for something a little less dramatic for your own daughter. Perhaps you are curious about single-gender education. Or quite simply you may be seeking an environment that allows your daughter to remain in her middle childhood years for just a little longer. Whatever the motivation behind your research you have found yourself at Hanger Hall. Since you are here, I invite you to take the time to get to know a little more about us as a school and also our philosophy about girls in their middle school years. Even better, I invite you to attend one of our open house sessions this fall (9/30, 10/24 or 11/10) to experience Hanger Hall first-hand and to determine if this is the type of school that is a fit for your daughter and for your family!
All the best,
Catherine A. McClain
Head of School
