HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
Music Concert
Our Kindergarten and Fourth Grade students did an amazing job last night. They have learned so much in music this year.
Green Flag Ceremony
Lots of activity this week outside as we were getting ready for the Green Flag Ceremony. Students worked in the Bio-diversity Garden, planted seeds, placed painted rock in the garden and watched the new flag pole be installed. Then on Friday Ranger Rick was here along with Senator Polehanki, Superintendent Oquist, Laura Toy, School Board Members, Livonia Greenleaf Commission and many others. Hoover is the first school in the State of Michigan to receive this honor!!!
Ride Your Bike to School Day
We had over 50 students ride their bike to school on Wednesday. Great job exercising and saving the environment!
Staff Appreciation Week Thank You
Thank you for all the wonderful treats, school supplies, flowers and gifts. We feel so lucky to be surrounded by such a caring community. It was fun to watch our Hoover Rockets delivering items throughout the week. The building was filled with smiles!
Did you know that even small exposures to nature are beneficial? Ming Kuo from the Department of Natural Resources researched whether nature based instruction was more effective than traditional instruction. "If you're indoors, having a view of your yard as opposed to facing the wall, that makes a difference. At the same time, more is better. That's one of the things that gives us more confidence that we're seeing a real cause-end-effect relationship. The bigger the dose of nature we give a person, the bigger the effect we see in them" says Ming Kuo.
Thank you to all who donated items and your time to help make this such a special Staff Appreciation Week! The staff was treated to a breakfast with a small favor, a popcorn bar, a school supply bar, a Qdoba catered lunch with gift raffle, and will receive a small gift tomorrow.
All this with the wonderful gifts, flowers, sweet notes and so much more that the children did for the staff made for a fantastic week!
Thank you to the following companies for their donations to make our gift raffle possible! Sweet 220, A&R Workshop, BJ’s Brewhouse, Phoenix Theater, Meri-Craft Florist, Merri-Bowl, Rusty Bucket, Las Palapas, Sweet 200, Granite City, Buddy’s, Sinbads Mediterranean, and Joes Produce.
