Mission Statement
The Hoover Boxing Program's mission is to provide Hoover Middle School students a structured and positive environment where kids can remain active and safe during unstructured hours such as the morning and afterschool. This program is designed to challenge students through physical activity that a boxer would experience.
This boxing program uses the "scholarly athlete model" so that our youths are able reach their full potential during their day classes. This allows the coaches and mentors to keep track of their academic and behavioral progress. If the student is able to meet behavioral and academic expectations, the boxing class becomes the motivational reward for reaching them. This program also gives students a chance to practice leadership skills such as sportsmanship, respect, being a life-long learner, team work, and
managing impulsiveness as well as boosting confidence in oneself. This program becomes a motivational reward as well as a support system for all of Hoover’s students.
