Our School

Hancock Central School is a rural public school for grades Pre-K-6 surrounded by natural beauty. The school is central to the community, and parents are actively involved in many aspects of the school. The community is also involved in much that we do, including bottle drives to fund special school programs and the Thanksgiving meal the school prepares and serves to the elderly population of Hancock. The student body is made up of approximately 60 students.
