Fantastic Night at Open House
It was great to see so many of you at Open House. There is a contagious excitement that fills the air as our students pridefully escort their parents around the building. Thank you for coming. Thank you to the many of you that worked behind the scenes to make a fun night for all (book fair, pumpkin displays, and Hoover spirit wear)!
SNEAK PEEK - Concerts are coming!
The following link is a little teaser that showcases Mr. Larson's 5th graders during music.
It is a peek into the new song, "Balafon", that 5th graders are learning on orff instruments.
Hoover PE update
Hello,
Mr. Hanson and Ms. Schultz are busy preparing student grades for fall conferences as we teach games and assess fitness, skills and teamwork for our students. Hoover’s Jump Rope For Heart fundraising event is quickly approaching!
The event date is December 2, 2016. Students will jump rope in class during the school day again this year, as last year. Packets will be distributed to all students by November 1st. We are hoping your family will donate to the American Heart Association. It is possible to make online donations as well as email friends and relatives to support your effort. Clarifying information is available in the student materials (packet) your child will bring home.
We will expect all packets be returned to school by the date of the event (Dec. 2). Thank you for supporting this tax-deductible and active fund-raising event.
Ms. Schultz and Mr. Hanson.

HOOVER PTA
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10TH IS THE NEXT PTA MEETING AND WE NEED YOU!
We would like to invite parents & teachers to attend our PTA meeting on November 10th, at 6:15 in the Media Center. 6:15-6:30 will be open networking/social time, for parents & faculty members to meet and greet, and then the meeting will start promptly at 6:30 PM. The PTA is a way for you to get involved with the school, share ideas & suggestions, and to get connected with fellow parents and Hoover faculty! We have an all new PTA Board this year and we have big ideas and plans to make this year at Hoover one of the best, but we can't do it alone! We hope to see you on November 10th! Sincerely, Rachel Carpenter (PTA President) and the PTA Board

YEARBOOK
The Hoover PTA would like to put together a committee of volunteers for the Yearbook! Having a committee or team to work on this project will make it much easier and less of a burden on just one individual! Putting the yearbook together is a lot of fun and super easy, thanks the design program! If you like to scrapbook, or enjoy photography or putting together digital photo books, then you will love this! If you are interested in being on the committee, please contact the PTA mankatohoooverpta@gmail.com
