History

Founded in 1924 in the parish seat of Hahnville, Louisiana, the school moved to its present location at Boutte, Louisiana in 1976. Hahnville High School has maintained its accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools every year since 1948. Most recently, Hahnville, as part of the St. Charles Parish Public School System, received its accreditation as part of a district which is one of only four districts in the country to date to receive district accreditation. Hahnville has now grown to have 9 buildings to maximize their education and athletic programs. [5]

Beginning in 2005, students in grades 11 and 12 from both Hahnville and Destrehan have had the option to attend the school district's Satellite Center for half of the school day. The goal is for students to concentrate on career paths that are projected to expand the most over the next decade. Courses at the Satellite Center include: Advanced Television Broadcasting, Digital Media, Engineering Design, Interactive Media, Process Technology (PTEC), Health Care Exploration, Patient Care, Hotel-Restaurant and Tourism (HRT) Administration, Culinary Arts, and Students Teaching And Reaching (STAR).[6] As of the 2018-2019 school year, the Satellite Center added courses in Instrumentation and Health Clinical. Thus, the courses of Digital Media, Interactive Media, and Advanced Television Broadcasting were moved into the academic wing of the school district's brand new Rodney Lafon Performing Arts Center less than a block away from the Satellite Center. Despite the move, these three courses are still considered a part of the Satellite Center.[7]

Alma Mater

By the Mississippi's waters
Stands our high school fair
Louisiana's sons and daughters
Long shall gather there.
Lift the chorus, speed it onward
We shall e'er be true
Hail to thee our alma mater
Hail to Hahnville High.
All the days we've spent together
Fondly we recall
Days of fair and stormy weather
Thou hast gladdened all.
Alma Mater, we adore thee
We will e'er be true.
Hail to thee our alma mater
Hahnville High to you.
