Hoover Community Donates $790

A HUGE thank you to the Hoover Community for donating a total of $790.00 to assist the animals in Haiti. The donation has been sent to the Humane Society of the United States. The Society is in the process of establishing the first- ever animal shelters in Haiti.

We'd like to acknowledge Jeremy Payne (Ms. Gallardo-Payne's husband) for devoting his graphic artist's talents in creating a wonderful poster to embrace this event. A copy of the poster is on display
outside of the main office.

With appreciation for your compassion, Ms. Cunningham and the Merit Awards Committee

Bring nonperishable food: If you are lucky enough to have a little extra, bring some food goods for our donation cans in the Main Office. These donated items not only help those families in less fortunate circumstances, but they also help everyone who helps others.

PTA Reflections Program

The Hoover PTA welcomes student participation in the PTA Reflections Program. The theme this year is “Beauty Is...”. The PTA Reflections Program recognizes students in the arts: musical composition, dance choreography, film/video production, literature, visual arts, and photography. Last year we had many students participate. Many were recognized at the district and state levels.

Information and more details are at the PTA website at http://www.capta.org/sections/programs/reflections.cfm. Please ensure that students pay close attention to the presentation paragraph. Many entries did not make it to the state level because artwork wasn't mounted, literature entries did not include 2 copies, etc.

All student entries should be turned in to the Main Office by November 13. Judging will take place the week after to determine the 10 entries in each category to move on to the citywide judging level.

If you have any questions, please contact Karen Robbins (parent of Marilee Robbins, 8th grade), Hoover PTA Reflections Chair at kdwr@sbcglobal.net.
