Anthony Hans
What is your role at Souhegan?
Chemistry Teacher
How long have you been with Souhegan?
My first year
What do you love about your job?
I love seeing the spark of curiosity ignite in my students' eyes when they finally understand a complex concept. I love the endless possibilities that chemistry offers, the way it explains the world around us and opens doors to discovery. It's a privilege to share my passion for this subject with the next generation.
What do you like to do outside of work?
Outside of work, you'll often find me buzzing around with my two energetic daughters and my amazing wife. Our adventures keep me on my toes and fill my heart with joy! These days it is lots of dance classes (and competitions) and soccer. And when I do manage to steal a moment for myself, you can bet I'll be sipping on a steaming cup of coffee out on our back deck, soaking up the serenity of the woods surrounding us, letting nature's symphony provide the perfect soundtrack to my escape.
If you were given one wish what would it be?
The power to grant wishes to others.
Do you have a favorite quote or mantra?
"I am vengeance. I am the night. I am Batman." is a favorite of mine. In my working life I tend to lean towards " Don't tell me no, tell me how!". Just in everyday life I follow Buddy the Elf's quote of "I just like to smile. Smiling's my favorite!".
Community Council
Community Council will meet on Monday to discuss our latest proposals, about Academic Integrity and the Drug, Alcohol, and Tobacco policy as written in the student handbook. Our next meeting will be Monday, 4/1 from 5:00-7:00 in room 126/127.

Best Buddies
The Best Buddies Friendship Walk is on May 11th!
Please register if you plan on walking in Concord, so you can start getting donations, after $50 in donations you get a t-shirt! It will have you make a personal page so you can send the link to anyone you know, and the money will go under your page for fundraising but go toward our team total. It is similar to anyone who has fundraised for sports. The team name is Souhegan Sabers. Make sure to type Souhegan Sabers in the box under ‘Join a team’. Then it will ask for personal info which will create your own page to collect donations.
