RHAM is always spelled in capital letters. The initials represent "Regional Hebron, Andover, and Marlborough, " the three towns that comprise State of Connecticut's Regional School District No. 8. Region 8 School District was formed and ground broken for our first school building in 1956. Classes started on September 6, 1956. In 1970, an addition was completed which provided the existing technology education wing, the art area, a new library, and an auxiliary gymnasium and locker room facility. In 1984, a second renovation of the high school facility began and was substantially completed in the fall of 1985. In July of 2000 ground was broken for the current High School, which was opened in February of 2003. The school colors are blue and gold, and our athletic teams are known as the SACHEMS, the name of Native American Indian Chiefs of the Algonquin tribe. PHILOSOPHY Faced with an increasingly complex and rapidly changing society, RHAM High School staff, Board of Education, student body, and parents believe education prepares students to meet a variety of challenges and opportunities throughout their lives. To enable students to be responsible, contributing citizens, we recognize that our essential purpose is to effectively engage them in learning as a life-long process. Acknowledging that our student population is drawn from three unique and diverse towns, our school community is dedicated to fostering a flexible and responsive climate.
