Important Reminders:
Visitors Badge
Our priority is our students safety and education. Parents and Visitors must stop in the office and get a visitors badge, before walking down the hallway to a classroom, this applies to the morning arrival time as well. If your child forgets an item, please stop at the Welcome Table and drop if off. Our parent volunteer is ready and waiting to help, so you can get on with your day and not have to walk down to the classroom. Students who arrive late, sign in at the Welcome Table and walk independently to their classroom. Thanks for your support, as we work to start instruction right away in the morning and limit our distractions.
Even on rainy days, the South Parking Lot is only for Buses and Day Care Vans. Parents please use the Drop Off Lane in the North Parking Lot or park in the North Parking Lot, if you need to get out of the car to assist your Hoover Rocket. Our goal in the Drop Off Lane is for drivers to pull as far North as possible, remain behind the wheel, as your child exits on the East side of the vehicle. This will help keep the flow moving and allow many students to be dropped off quickly and safely. Thank you for your support. Look for future signs and cones to assist in this process.
*Student Directory Forms are due on Wednesday (10/5). *Thank you to Mrs. Gregg and Mrs. New for painting our Wild About Hoover Lobby Windows.
*We are excited to share that next week, Hoover has a Red Wings Assembly planned for all grades on Thursday, October 13, 2016.
Announcements and Information
Do you know how public schools are funded in Michigan? Did you know that Proposal A changed the way public schools are funded? Is the model working well for our students? Do you know if our schools are, in fact, receiving adequate funding? Do we have any local recourse?
School funding is a critical topic that concerns everyone - parents, students, staff and all taxpayers.
Come learn about the current state of funding and possible solutions at a School Funding Reform Town Hall Meeting, set for 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 13 in the Performing Arts Center at Franklin High School, 31000 Joy Road, between Merriman and Middlebelt in Livonia.
