Bryan Strauss, Hoover Middle School Teacher

Bryan is the voice of Hoover Middle School, or our "hype man." He can often be heard doing morning announcements, making us all laugh, DJing Hoover dances and public events, and motivating students in our WEB program as we welcome 5th graders to our building. People really appreciate the high energy Bryan brings to his work for Hoover Middle and the wider community. Bryan is not "all flash" ... He serves as Department Chair for Special Education, safeguarding the rights of students and coordinating testing schedules, accommodations, etc. Bryan also co-chairs our Student Council, and in that capacity, leads our whole school community in our annual Food Drive, Candy Cane sales, School Spirit Weeks, and a recent cereal collection as part of the Jerry Starr Sleep-Out. Bryan adds laughter and an infusion of positive energy to every day at Hoover Middle!
