Iowa City Community School District Expands Its Research Capacity with Hanover’s Support
Partnering with Hanover Research was a logical conclusion for us because information is ubiquitous…but knowledge, on the other hand, is in short supply. Having a trusted partner that can help sift and winnow that information and actually translate it into knowledge that is applicable on our research teams and in our schools was the key reason why we chose to partner with Hanover.

New Albany-Plain Local School District Assesses Students’ Social-Emotional Competencies
“We have really appreciated our partnership with Hanover, particularly in being able to do longitudinal work—we like being able to look at work from years ago to see school improvement shown through data-driven insights. The survey team has given us solid research that we can lean on to make informed decisions driven by what our community is showing and saying; we plan to use these survey results to see how we can best support our students in their social-emotional learning. We’ve done substance use, SEL, and staff climate surveys with Hanover, and have found that our partnership helps us be better at what we do.”

Why Gateway Community Charters is Partnering with Hanover Research
“In our work with Hanover we have gained strong partners for the intentional and impactful equity journey we have begun. Since our first meeting we could tell that Hanover shared our passion and commitment and we were impressed with the level of reflection on their end during our inaugural Equity Workshop. The workshop had a strong balance of humor and depth/seriousness, and was framed as a first step in our equity efforts. The activities were chosen with intentionality, and there was a sense that everyone was meaningfully engaged. We enjoy our Hanover team as people, and enjoy that their hearts are in the same place as ours.”
– Dr. Cindy Petersen, Superintendent/CEO
