PTA News
Great First Week, Hoover Families — Here's What's Ahead!

Dear Hoover Families,

We hope you had a great second week! With the long Labor Day weekend here, we wish everyone a restful break — there's no school on Monday, September 7th. Here's what's coming up at Hoover.

Fall Sports Tryouts
Hoover is offering three fall sports this season: Boys' Softball, Girls' Softball, and Coed Cross Country. Tryouts begin Tuesday, September 8th at 3:15 PM in the gym. Before tryouts, students must be registered through the ParentVue Portal and have an up-to-date physical (MCPS Form SR-8) on file. Questions? Contact Athletic Coordinator Kyle Skellchock at Kyle_D_Skellchock@mcpsmd.org.

PTA Committees — Chairs & Volunteers Needed!
We're still looking for 6th and 7th grade Outdoor Recess coordinators and a coordinator for our Website — plus volunteers for all committees. This is a great way to get involved and make a real difference this year. Interested? Join our PTA Committee WhatsApp Community to get connected.

Save the Date — Spirit Night at Shake Shack! 🍔
Mark your calendars for our first Spirit Night of the year on Friday, September 18th at Shake Shack. Come grab dinner, support Hoover, and see your school community — more details and the flyer coming soon!

Join the PTA!

Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead!

Warmly,
The Hoover PTA
