The Federal Hocking High School Community strives to help all students become life-long learners, active democratic citizens, and to be flexible in their career choices. Central to this mission is helping young people develop the self-esteem necessary to feel that they can make a difference in the world.

To this end, we work to develop challenging learning experiences that actively engage students and connect what they learn with the world around them. We also strive to create a school environment where diversity is appreciated; where students share the responsibility for acting with compassion, courtesy, and courage toward all; and where a respect for one's own and other's heritage is fostered.

We believe that the success of our students is dependent upon the ability of the school community to give direction, provide support, and meet the needs of individual students. We accept that challenge and invite the total Federal Hocking community to join with us in this task.
