Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School (often abbreviated HWRHS) is a high school in Hamilton, Massachusetts. Its sports teams are called the Generals, after General George S. Patton, who lived in Hamilton. The school boasts hand sanatizers throughout the hallways, compliments of the Lyons' Club of Hamilton Wenham.

The school is the home school for "Harmony", a select vocal group which has sung at Red Sox games, at Tanglewood, and other assorted venues; it is also home of Theatre Workshop, which is an annual participant in the MSHDG One-Act Festival. They have reached the State Finals rounds six times over the 20 or so years in competition, and have moved on the New Englands three times, the most recent being with "Kansas," an original one-act play by John Robinson, an author and former teacher.
