HOOVER FIGHT SONG | HOOVER HIGH SCHOOL ALMA MATER | ||
We’re going to cheer, cheer for Hoover High. We’re going to fight for the green and gold. We’ll stand behind the Huskies, victory we’ll see! We will never fold. Fight! Fight! We’re going to show every team around. We’re going to show ’em how to play the game. To build a legend of our fame tonight, We’re going to win this game! Go Hoover High School! Fight! Fight! Fight! |
Our fathers gone before us Proudly built our school To honor our colors Strive in all we do And in distant future As we meet our goals Then we can look back on Hoover Dear old Green and Gold |

"In motivating people, you've got to engage their minds and their hearts. I motivate people, I hope, by example - and perhaps by excitement, by having productive ideas to make others feel involved."
"Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing."
"Perfection is Achieved Not When There Is Nothing More to Add, But When There Is Nothing Left to Take Away"
