Check out a few highlights from our September Board of Education meeting! The Board approved the FY 2027 budget and recognized some amazing staff members.

Melissa Hubauer, HCS Strong Coordinator, joined us as we celebrated all of our schools being named to Healthier Generation’s 2026 list of America’s Healthiest Schools. All 16 schools were recognized for Supporting School Health Services and Bolstering Physical Education & Activity, and HCS was the only school system in Alabama to have every school earn these honors.

Mrs. Hubauer was joined by our HCS Strong school coordinators, who help lead health and wellness efforts in their schools and support programs that encourage healthy habits for our staff throughout the year.

Meredith DeVore, music teacher at Shades Mountain Elementary, was recognized for receiving the Robert E. Wright, Jr. Award for Exceptional Service from the Alabama chapter of the American Choral Directors Association. This honor recognizes educators who have made a lasting impact on choral music through service, leadership, and dedication to the profession.

A special thank you to Representative Leigh Hulsey for presenting a check to Hoover City Schools to support our schools and students.

House systems are one of the ways several of our schools help students build connections across grade levels and throughout their school community. Through house meetings and activities, students get to know their peers, build character, and learn from student role models. It’s also a fun way to build school pride and a sense of belonging beyond the classroom.

Check out some of the fun from Deer Valley Elementary’s first house meeting of the year!

Hoover City Schools was proud to host the Alabama State Department of Education’s District Safety Coordinator Leadership Symposiums, welcoming school safety leaders from across the state.

Gwin Elementary, Berry Middle, and Spain Park were selected as test sites as coordinators learned about Alabama’s new school safety rubric, participated in walkthroughs, and heard directly from HCS safety teams.

HCS leaders also shared how our building safety coordinators, SROs, Hoover Police, Hoover Fire, and emergency management partners work together to support the safety of our students, staff, and schools.

We were honored to showcase the strong partnerships and preparation behind school safety in Hoover and to be part of this important statewide work.

💛 This week, students and staff across Hoover City Schools are invited to wear gold as we come together to support children and families impacted by childhood cancer.

For more than a decade, HCS has joined the Hope for Autumn Foundation in this community tradition, showing support for local families and helping shine a light on childhood cancer.

So grab your gold and help us fill our schools with hope. Together, we celebrate survivors, stand beside families, honor those we remember, and remind our community that no family walks this journey alone.

UABSON alumna Elisabeth Goodman has been named the 2026 Alabama Registered School Nurse of the Year by the Alabama Association of School Nurses. Since joining Shades Mountain Elementary in 2022, Goodman has prioritized creating a culture of health and wellness that extends beyond the health room.

In 2022, Goodman launched the district’s first nurse-led Hoover Community Health and Wellness Fair, bringing together healthcare providers, community organizations, wellness professionals, local businesses and school resources, with the goal of connecting families to services they may not otherwise know are available. The event offers health screenings, educational resources, children's activities, wellness information and opportunities for families to interact directly with healthcare professionals.

This year’s Health Fair is Saturday, Oct. 3 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Hunter Street Baptist Church and will include free health screenings, local vendors, a food truck and giveaways.

You know it’s a fun Friday when you get to run, celebrate, and have a little colorful fun with your friends! Thanks to the support of the Green Valley community, students raised more than $40,000 for their school, blowing past their fundraising goal!

A huge thank you to the families, students, teachers, staff, volunteers, and community members who donated, volunteered, cheered, and helped make it such a great Friday.

Way to go, Gators!

The future of Hoover City Schools is something we build together.

Throughout our strategic planning meetings, employees, families, students, and community members have come together to share ideas, dream about what is possible, and help shape what comes next for HCS.

Every conversation brings a new perspective, and every voice helps build momentum for the future. We look forward to continuing this work together as we create a shared vision for the future of HCS.
