Congratulations to the Hoover Bucs Basketball team! Boys’ & girls’ teams are headed to the finals on Saturday! #BUCSBBALL #thehooverway

SGA president & basketball player Nia Brown was awarded the Finley Award today. It’s the most prestigious award in our district & it’s for character. It’s named after my HS basketball coach, & I couldn’t be prouder of Nia! #iloveourschool #charactermatters #thehooverway

“Every one of them is special because they come with adversity." Another one for Hoover Lady Bucs. That's now 5 state titles in a row. The story from an inspiring performance: hooversun.com/sports/hoover/…

Had to lead off the 10 pm show with the Hoover Bucs Basketball historic win....🏀 More on tonight's 7A Boys Final....and how the Bucs wrote themselves into the history books as one of the greatest teams this state has ever seen....🔽 Hoover Bucs | CBS 42

First undefeated 7A boys champion. First undefeated boys big school champ since 2002-03 John Carroll HS. One of the best teams in state history. Period.

Legacy isn’t built on ego or applause—it’s built in the quiet moments of impact, teamwork, and love. As the school year winds down, I reflect on what echoes we leave behind.

What a legacy! This is awesome, Melisa!

We have a “Growth Tree” sculpture in our library this year. Students were given flowers on which to write personal goals, and the flowers were hung on the Growth Tree. Powerful to see our students’ goals on display!

Congratulations, Adam Moseley 🇺🇸🔶⬛️🇺🇸!! 🙌🧡
