SHOUT OUTS
Last Thursday, December 4th, Hoover proudly hosted the CTE Network Day, and it was an incredible success! Our visitors described our CCTE programs as “shining” and called Hoover a “special place” — and the food? Absolutely “delicious.” From MET's student reporters who created a same-day video recap, to SABE's student builders who led tours of the tiny homes and woodshop, to AHHC's future medical professionals who showcased their skills, and to the culinary students who prepared standout sandwiches and cookies — their talent and teamwork truly impressed our guests. Shout-out to everyone who made this event such a meaningful showcase of the brilliance, skill, and community spirit within Hoover’s CCTE pathways!
