Herbert Hoover Middle School PTSA

• The PTSA membership present will vote on the awesome slate of parent & teacher(!) candidates presented by the Nominating Committee.
• Location: Hoover Middle School Media Center / Library in Main Building.
• The PTSA has a full slate of officers for next year, but more volunteers are needed for committees and events. Please come to the meeting and find out about these opportunities to contribute.
• Please consider spreading the word by liking/sharing/commenting on the meeting’s facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/events/1273875656027449/
• Some agenda items for this meeting include:
  • The PTSA is considering a survey of the Hoover community to collect feedback and input on school climate. What questions & topics would you like to see on such a survey ?  Give us your input.
  • Screenager Movie event Team update
  • Arts on the Green Team update.
  • Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week Team update
  • May Sports Banquet team update
• Hope to see you there!

Reminder: Please take the Hoover’s Slogan Survey

• The Hoover faculty discipline committee (Mr Laskowski, Ms Basore, Ms Jaco, Ms Reyna) is hard at work to replace “Respect and Responsibility” with Hoover’s next-generation, fine-tailored slogan.  We’d like to invite as many families as possible to be a part of the process with a short survey.
• Could you take ~3-4 minutes out of your day to take this important survey that will help us draft a new school slogan!  click here: https://goo.gl/forms/1FqAn4kNsGIDs4AE2

Yearbook Team needs your Photos 

• Deliver flash drive addressed to Marla Hochmann or email to brejbrand@sjusd.org, mhochman@sjusd.org or hoovermsptsa@gmail.com
• The yearbook staff is hard at work putting together our memories from this school year. Some of our parents take lots of photos at school events and we’d love it they would share them!
• Would you be able to help us put the word out to parents that we are seeking their Hoover photos? A flash drive left in my mailbox is fine, or a shared folder somewhere in the cloud works well too. As long as I’m invited to view the folder it doesn’t matter where they’re stored.
• Any help you can give us in rounding up these treasured memories will be greatly appreciated! Many thanks, Marla Hochmann, Barbara Rejbrand, and the Leadership Kids
