RHAM High School (Regional Hebron, Andover, and Marlborough)[2] is a regional, public high school located in Hebron, Connecticut, United States. Students from the Region 8 public school area of Connecticut, which includes Marlborough and Andover, attend the school. There are 69 teachers, for a 1:12 teacher to student ratio.[3]
RHAM is always spelled in capital letters. The initials represent “Regional Hebron, Andover, and Marlborough,” the three towns that comprise the State of Connecticut’s Regional School District No. 8. The 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 2002.
The school colors are blue and gold, and the athletic teams are known as the SACHEMS, the name of Native American Indian Chiefs of the Algonquin tribe.
