RICHARD DIMITT, school superintendent, con- ducts business at one of the monthly school board meetings. SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS include: Mrs. Judith Stoll, Mr. William Lueder, Mrs. Patricia Kocot, Mrs. Lillian Thornburg, and Mr. Sam Tortorici. EVERYONE BENEFITED FROM THE Schoolboard According to School Board president Judith Stoll, the board ' s greatest accomplishments were topped by the Jane Ball school expansion project. The addition of 10 classrooms . . . enabled the expansion of Prime Time which was making classes smaller in number of students. It centered all the students under one roof as suggested by the State Accreditation Committee. A weighted grading system was added at Hanover for those students who opted to make more difficult curriculum choices. A weighted class was one that was harder to receive good grades in and each letter grade was worth one higher than if it was an unweighted class. Also, for people who excelled in academics, there was a letter, like one received for sports, if the grade point average was 3.5 by the end of the fifth grading period. The school board worked to make high school life as equal for academic achievers as for athletic achievers. 28 Administration Faculty

It ' s the same in all schools and Hanover is no exception. Hanover is unique in itself. Each school has its own set of people and traditions. The way these people work as one is what makes the school special to students and faculty alike. Since Hanover is a relatively small school, an ndividual student knows most ot his classmates. The faculty recognizes each student as an individual, not just a number.
