Canned Food Drive
Thank you for all the canned goods. We filled 8 boxes in one night! We will be collecting canned goods until November 17th for the Good Fellows. Thank you to the Girl Scouts for decorating and helping with the Canned Food Drive.
Observing Student Learning
Each week I go into classrooms to observe students learning. We have an amazing staff here at Hoover. This week, I saw first graders using the Interactive White Boards in Mrs. Eckerle's class. They were identifying the syllable breaks in words.
Book Fair
The book fair will be open during Conferences. Students will be going in for a sneak peak on Tuesday. If you would like to donate any change for the All For Books program look for a bag to come home with the All For Books Label.
Rocket Pad
The School Store will be closed this week due to Parent Teacher Conferences.
*The MSU/UM Coin War will begin tomorrow and run through this week. Send in your change to support your favorite team. Please remind students to be kind with their words and actions during this competition.
*We are still collecting shoes for the Kiwanis Shoe Competition.
*Help support Hoover by visiting Chuck E. Cheese in Novi, on Wednesday. A percentage of the sales will come back to Hoover. Enjoy an evening of games and fun since the students have the afternoon off.
Three times a year, the entire Hoover staff takes a day to "dive" into student data to see how they are performing and to be sure that struggling students get the intervention they need. It's very powerful to see teachers, support staff, and other experts all coming together to identify the needs of each child. I'm always amazed at how well our teachers know their students and how it's much more than just looking at data, but about looking at ways to help each and every child. I'm proud to work with such a dedicated group of educators. At Hoover, we look beyond the data and look for ways to make each student successful!
