Curriculum

The curriculum at Hanger Hall reflects our emphasis on strong academics, creativity and personal growth. The program covers all requirements of the state of North Carolina and much, much more. Students experience a wide variety of learning opportunities through hands-on projects, field trips, and dramatic presentations.  All girls participate in service learning projects throughout the community.

In everything from athletics to writing, strength and independence are emphasized. The girls at Hanger Hall study Languages all three years (we are one of only a very few middle schools offering a choice of languages), along with art, drama, and music.  Students learn math and science in the classroom and then apply that knowledge outside. Hanger Hall regularly participates in the Math Counts competition and the North Carolina High School Math Competition.   Field trips and class trips greatly enhance classroom learning.   Our challenging academic program includes:

  • Humanities (history, geography, literature and writing)
  • Grammar
  • Science (including lab experiences)
  • Math (pre algebra, algebra)
  • World language (French or Spanish)
  • Computer Skills
  • Athletics
  • Art
  • Music
  • Drama

With our proximity to the Weaver Boulevard Greenway and the UNC Asheville campus, the girls spend many clear days outside. And, with such small class sizes, everyone gets the attention they need.

Hanger Hall COVID-19 Updates

Hanger Hall Health & Safety 

As a small school with small class sizes , we are confident in our capability to implement all health and safety recommendations to ensure a safe reopening, given the current guidance received from federal, state, and local levels of government.  Hanger Hall’s highest priority is the health and safety of our students, families, faculty and staff.

Our efforts to prepare for the upcoming school year is led by Hanger Hall’s leadership team under the guidance of a COVID-19 task force, comprised of Hanger Hall Staff, Board Members and Parent Volunteers who are in the Healthcare Field.  To support this priority, safety protocols will be in place for the 2020-21 school year.

This team is working over the summer to develop a variety of mitigation measures that will be implemented in classrooms, along with various contingency models so that Hanger Hall is prepared to support any COVID-!( related scenario within our school community.

Please visit this page regularly to receive additional communication related to school reopening that will be shared over the coming weeks.

One of the guiding principles in the development of Hanger Hall’s plan has always been to closely adhere to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s guidelines for the reopening of schools as well as public health guidance issued by the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. You can find these health and safety protocols in our handbook and updates will be made here.
