She tranistioned to public school very well and ended up with several scholarships for college. I credit Hanover Academy and its personal and family oriented atmosphere for helping her find her sense of self and to always love to learn.

One of them is that during quarantine, my son and I can walk over so that he can run wild! I'm super hesitant to write this review, because I really don't want it to become crowded. But, there's never anyone there. I've never seen another soul on the playgrounds and I pass the school multiple times a day going to and from my house. I finally felt safe taking my two year old this week for some vitamin D and outdoor play time. As always, he loved it. They actually have a sign up saying that their facilities are open at this time, but to proceed at your own risk :) Looks like they've redone the pathway to the two big kid playgrounds and track since we last visited. It now has stairs and an accessible ramp for folks with wheelchairs or strollers. We did a couple laps around the track and it's a nice change in scenery from our neighborhood, which we have stuck to during covid. I've heard nothing but wonderful things about this school and staff and I'm looking forward to my son being a student there in a couple years.

They get to know the students and find ways to encourage them towards success. The only way a student could fail is if he/she does not put forth any effort. I have first hand knowledge of this and it is solely up to the student if they want to pass or fail. Teachers will let students know ahead of time if they are not meeting requirements and then will reach out to the parents to express concerns and options available if they believe the student needs extra tutoring. No, the curriculum is not easy, but the resources to pass any class are plentiful if a student needs more instructional time or understanding any particular coursework required. The opportunities are endless! The students are reminded they can excel in anything, even if they are not confident on what their goals are beyond high school just yet. For those who do have an idea or plan for the future, the early exposure towards those goals are very easy to begin working towards while being a Jaguar! It is very possible for students to graduate with an associate's degree, certification in one of the many trades the county offers, and/or early graduation! Also, with many athletic programs and clubs, it makes it very easy to establish great relationships to contribute to a healthy social environment during and out of school. My son only experienced 3 years in Glen Allen (freshmen year was virtual), but even with everyone adjusting to the new normal and us being new to the Glen Allen neighborhood, this school really surpassed all my expectations! A special thank you for Mrs. Allen! Thank you for always making yourself available and going the extra mile to help the students work towards their goals. But most importantly being creative and hands on, encouraging them from the time you work out their first schedule as rising Jaguars. We truly appreciate you beyond words! -Micah's Mom & Entire Village
