DREAM BIG, ACHIEVE MORE!


Principal’s Message: 


At Hoover we encourage all of our students to “Dream Big, Achieve More!”


I encourage all of our students to strive to do their very best everyday, build lasting relationships, and be engaged in all activities. 


Hoover Way Expectations-Respectful, Responsible, and Engaged!

We believe all students should be respectful, responsible, and engaged everyday! Students are expected to be in class on time everyday and follow our cell phone and electronics policy. Violations of these policies will lead to consequences.


This week we celebrate Hoover’s Homecoming and Beat Glendale Day (BGD) Week! This tradition is approaching 100 years in the making. We wish our Football the best of luck against Glendale and we look forward to all of the great activities celebrating our school throughout the week!! The schedule of events is below.


At Hoover, we continue to promote a College-Going Culture. Our mission is to ensure that all students graduate meeting the minimum requirements for college access. This will be accomplished through increasing access to rigorous course offerings and promoting academic engagement. 


We have several upcoming college visits, including from NYU and Pepperdine, in September. All visits will be held in our College and Career Center.


Our Fall Season is in full swing! We wish our Girls Volleyball, Girls Golf, Boys Waterpolo, Football, Girls Tennis, Cross Country, PEP, and Marching Band all the best of luck throughout the season!



Attendance continues to be a focus at Hoover. Please ensure your child is at school everyday. We are also prioritizing students being in class on time and are conducting daily tardy sweeps to ensure students are in class from bell to bell. 

As a reminder to all students and families, at Hoover we promote a safe and inclusive environment for all students and staff. We have no tolerance for any hate speech or hurtful language. Any students using such language will receive serious consequences.


As always, Tornados are Responsible, Respectful, and Engaged!
