Hatters – Hatboro-Horsham (PA) High School

NOTE:  We’re a little short of 100, so I’m adding a few more to get us to that magic number.

We’re mad, I tell you!  Mad!

Hatboro and Horsham are just to the norhwest of Philadelphia, which they serve as bedroom communities. They both date back to 1715 or so. Together, they now have more than 23,000 people.

Hatboro’s the bigger of the two, about about two time the size of Horsham. Hatboro has two claims to fame:

  • The Battle of Crooked Billet, during the Revolutionary War
  • Being where Jill Biden grew up

Horsham’s home to a Air National Guard base, as well as an air museum.

The high school dates back to 1950, and today has 1,300 students. Sounds like they’re very proud of their robotics team, TV studio & channel, and band.

Sports-wise, they’ve notched 6 state championships, in softball, hockey, x-country & swimming.

Oh, about those hats … Sure enough, Hatboro was once known for making the things (oh, in the early 1700s, that is).

No real mascot, unfortunately. Though I did find this guy:
