The projects by these Crosby ISD students took sacrifice and time to create, and they ranged from a deer stand with a television to delicious cakes and cookies. Rodeo week is a special time of year to cap off a wonderful school year. Thank you to the entire Crosby Fair and Rodeo Association board members and the dozens and dozens of volunteers who helped pull it off.
As we move into the middle of June, I wanted to share a quick reminder to families. We would love for your students to be verified and/or registered as soon as possible for the 2023-2024 School Year. You can access our website www.crosbyisd.org/back-to-school to start the process. It only takes about 10 minutes per student. You can also find the 2023-2024 Academic Calendar to download, print, and hang on the family refrigerator. We also have school supply lists for elementary students if you are trying to get back-to-school shopping done early!
In the meantime, I hope everyone is taking time this summer to enjoy making memories with your loved ones. There’s never a better time for quality family time.
We are Better Together! Go Coogs!
