About Our School
BULLYING, HARASSMENT, AND SAFETY POLICIESThe safety of our students is our first priority. Our staff is trained to be observant, aware, responsive, and positively engaged. School-wide lessons instruct students how to be safe, respectful, and responsible. Specialists work with students to provide support with academic, emotional, and behavioral needs. Our school safety team meets regularly to anticipate and mitigate potential hazards. Our doors are secured at the beginning of each day. All visitors check in at our office before entering the building. All staff is trained annually in safety protocols and practices.
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIESExtracurricular activities help us connect with our students and their families. Hoover students have a variety of opportunities, including student leadership, outdoor education and field trips, academic competitions and celebrations, an annual talent show and art fair, athletic competitions, after-school academic courses, as well as spirit and special interest assemblies. Hoover hosts family-friendly social events throughout the year. Grade levels sponsor academic spotlight celebrations.
PARENT ENGAGEMENTHoover enjoys a strong and supportive parent community, and we collaborate to help all our students reach their potential. Parents are encouraged to support our work by monitoring their student’s progress, communicating with teachers, volunteering in the classroom and for special events, or simply having lunch with their child in the cafeteria. Hoover has an active and robust Parent/Teacher Organization where volunteers are welcome, and parents are encouraged to engage in whatever capacity they are able.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENTHoover communicates with our community through email, text messaging, newsletter, and social media. The Hoover website and Facebook page is updated daily to keep families informed about school events and community opportunities and activities. Hoover’s community partners help us to support our children and their families, as well as to enhance the educational experience of our students.
