Principal's Message

Welcome to Memorial Junior School!

As I begin my 27th year in the Hanover Township Public Schools and my 11th year as Principal of Memorial Junior School, I continue to be inspired by the students, families, and staff who make our school community such an exceptional place. Each new school year brings new opportunities to learn, grow, and build upon the tradition of excellence that defines Memorial Junior School.

This year's district theme, Excellence in Action, reminds us that excellence is demonstrated through our daily choices, our commitment to continuous improvement, and the positive impact we have on those around us. At Memorial Junior School, we strive to create a learning environment where purpose, curiosity, and character guide every student's journey. We encourage our students to ask questions, think creatively, persevere through challenges, and embrace opportunities to lead and serve others.

Our internationally recognized technology program, strong academic curriculum, and wide variety of extracurricular experiences provide students with meaningful opportunities to explore their interests and develop the skills they need for success in high school and beyond. From innovative classroom experiences and award-winning technology education to the arts, athletics, and student leadership, Memorial Junior School is a place where every student is encouraged to discover their strengths and reach their full potential.

The success of our school is made possible through the strong partnership between our dedicated staff and supportive families. Together, we foster a culture where students feel connected, challenged, and inspired to become lifelong learners and responsible citizens.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership. I look forward to another outstanding year as we put Excellence in Action each day and continue making Memorial Junior School a place where every student learns with purpose, explores with curiosity, and grows in character.

Mr. Michael S. Anderson
Principal
