Elementary schools host Meet the Teacher Day

Hundreds of parents and students converged on the campus of Trace Crossings and Riverchase Elementary Schools in August for Meet the Teacher Day. 

This annual event, held at all elementary schools in the Hoover school system, enables students to get a sneak peek at where they will be going to school. Students and their parents meet teachers and classmates, learn the layout of the school and drop off requested school supplies.

True to form, the highly-engaged parents of Hoover took time away from work, re-arranged schedules and made time for “Meet the Teacher Day.” Administrators and teachers find it a great way to ease the start of school “jitters” by giving students an opportunity to acclimate ahead of time.
