Crosby PTSA Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 5 Mar 2009<br />
<strong>Principal‟s</strong> <strong>Corner</strong><br />
Kirk Lattimore<br />
Spring is upon us. During this time of the year, I can see how our students have matured physically and mentally since the beginning of the<br />
school year. Although children mature at different rates, most kids make this transition without any major problems. As we close out the last<br />
week of the 5 th grading period and enter the final six weeks of the school year, it is important to remember that students must pass 4 out of 6<br />
classes including math and language arts. Students must also complete a writing folder (portfolio in 7 th ) in order to pass to the next grade level.<br />
If you have any concerns regarding your child’s progress, please contact his or her team leader or counselor. The times in which teachers and<br />
teams are available are listed in the Counselor’s section of this newsletter.<br />
This summer our school will undergo a Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning renovation. The entire school will be “gutted” and no one will be<br />
allowed on school property after June 4 th . The renovation will take all summer and the staff will not be able to work in the building until the<br />
first or second week in August. The administrative staff will be relocated to Eastern High School to close out the 2008-09 school year in June.<br />
The administrative staff will also open the 2009-10 school year in July at Eastern High School.<br />
I want to congratulate our Quick-Recall and Future Problem Solving Governor’s Cup teams for winning the District and Regional titles. I also<br />
want to congratulate the boys’ basketball team for winning the district regular season and tournament titles. Finally, I want to congratulate the<br />
girls’ basketball team winning back-to-back regular season and district tournament titles as well as the Junior LIT Championship.<br />
Congratulations to the following students for receiving the PTA Character Award: Lucas Taylor, Jenna Lee, Aundreya Chandler, and<br />
Blaine Gambs.<br />
From the PTSA President<br />
You will most likely receive this newsletter during the long-awaited Spring Break! We hope you and your family had a restful week away<br />
from classes and the demands of school. After a very long winter, all of us are ready for spring. And, before we can blink too many times, it<br />
will be the time for CATS testing, finals and 8 th grade recognition.<br />
Are you interested in getting more involved at Crosby by serving on the PTSA Board of Officers next year? Lynda Hines, VP-Volunteers for<br />
the PTSA Board, is chairing the Nominating Committee. She and the committee are busy recruiting persons wanting to make a difference for<br />
our students at Crosby. There are seven elected positions and approximately thirteen appointed positions on the Crosby Board. We meet once<br />
a month in the evening in the school library. You may contact Lynda for more details at lynda0503@yahool.com. Elections for next year’s<br />
Board will be held in May.<br />
We will be sponsoring another Max & Erma’s FUNdraising event at the Summit restaurant on Tuesday, April 21 st ! Mark your calendars to<br />
take your family out to eat or order carryout anytime that day to support the Crosby PTSA. Just present the flyer to your waiter when ordering<br />
and 20% of your total bill will be returned to the PTSA! You can find a copy of the flyer on the address page (last page) of this newsletter, on<br />
the PTSA link in yourclasspage.com, or watch for the flyer to come home with your student prior to the event.<br />
Thank you to the many volunteers who have helped these past months with the numerous activities at School. The Circus of the Kids was once<br />
a huge success, and so dependent upon parent volunteer support and assistance. Spring sports are underway and you continue to show incredible<br />
support of Crosby at these events. Thank you. And hang in there for the next eight weeks!<br />

Breaking News for Parents of 8 th Graders:<br />
Our original plans for the 8 th Grade Recognition Program on<br />
June 3 have been impacted by high school graduations. As you<br />
know, dates have been moved due to the wind and ice storms. Our<br />
program will be at Knights Hall at Bellarmine University. We will<br />
begin promptly at 8:00 AM and be done no later than 10:00 AM.<br />
Eighth grade students will need to be at Bellarmine and ready to line<br />
up at 7:30 AM. Information about dress code for this event and<br />
other information regarding end-of-year activities will be coming<br />
soon.<br />
We are all looking forward to Spring Break and the end of the year.<br />
However, we have over 8 weeks of instruction left in this school<br />
year. Our main focus needs to remain on learning. Parents, we hope<br />
that you can help us reinforce the importance of education and focus<br />
during this time.<br />
Please don’t hesitate to call us if you have questions or concerns.<br />
Mrs. Allen, Ms. Randle, and Mrs. Skinner<br />
We Still Need …<br />
Your Assistance with Traffic<br />
I want to thank you for your assistance with the morning and afternoon<br />
pick-up and drop-off procedures. Although we have seen tremendous<br />
improvement in the flow of traffic, we are still receiving<br />
complaints from the residents near the school and the City of Douglass<br />
Hills. We still have some students being picked up and dropped<br />
off on Gatehouse Lane. There are also times when traffic is stopped<br />
along Gatehouse Lane in the mornings and afternoons.<br />
The City of Douglass Hills has asked Metro Police to assist with the<br />
morning and afternoon traffic. Since there is no parking permitted<br />
on Gatehouse Lane, you cannot pick up or drop off your child on<br />
this road. Also, you cannot stop on Gatehouse Lane while waiting to<br />
pick up your child in the afternoon, even if the line extends onto<br />
Gatehouse Lane. We have been informed that violators will be ticketed.<br />
Please review the morning/afternoon pick-up/drop-off procedures:<br />
In the morning, if you turn onto school property from the right,<br />
please stay to the right and drop off in the front of the school<br />
near the office entrance. If you turn onto school property from<br />
the left, please proceed to the teacher parking lot area and drop<br />
off at the entrance near the cafeteria. Cars that switch lanes<br />
once they enter school property create traffic jams.<br />
In the afternoon, 6 th grade car riders who are picked up on<br />
school property are expected to meet their parents at the entrance<br />
next to the front teacher parking lot.<br />
The following suggestions provide options for pick up and drop off<br />
that assist with the flow of traffic and promote safety:<br />
If you live in our resides, ride the school bus. If you must<br />
drive, carpool with neighbors.<br />
Arrive before 7:15 a.m. (Parents can drop off students at 7:00<br />
a.m.).<br />

ESS (Extended School Services)<br />
Students whose zeros cause them to fail language arts, math, social<br />
studies or science for the 5th grading period should come to Saturday<br />
ESS on April 11th from 8:30-10:30. They can complete a packet<br />
of work to demonstrate that they understand the grading period's<br />
concepts and raise a failing grade to passing. Keep in close contact<br />
with your child's teachers to determine whether your child needs to<br />
attend.<br />
There will not be summer school at Crosby this year, so if your child<br />
is in danger of repeating the grade you must ACT NOW!<br />
More information is available from Mrs. Turnbull and under Saturday<br />
ESS on yourclasspage.com/5024858235<br />
Pull all the way up to the drop-off point if there are no cars in<br />
front of you.<br />
Students should be ready to get out of the car immediately.<br />
Pick up your child at the Douglass Hills Community Center or<br />
the Church of Christ.<br />
Remind your child to exit the building immediately after school<br />
and go directly to your car.<br />
Drive cautiously, watch for students crossing the street, and be<br />
courteous to other drivers.<br />

JCPS Middle School Student Promotion Policy<br />
The middle school student promotion policy requires students to pass<br />
66 2/3% of classes, (which is equal to 4 out of a possible 6 points) two<br />
of those classes passed MUST be Language Arts and Math. These<br />
requirements must be met in order to be promoted to the next grade.<br />
Kentucky Core Content Test (KCCT) and Commonwealth Accountability<br />
Testing System (CATS)<br />
<strong>Jefferson</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Schools</strong> will be administering the Kentucky<br />
Core Content Tests May 11 through May 22. It is very important that<br />
all students participate in this assessment as scheduled. Please avoid<br />
scheduling doctor, orthodontic, or other appointments for students<br />
during the school day for this two week period.<br />
Individual Learning Plans<br />
Students will continue working on their Individual Learning Plans<br />
through JCPS On-line. They will use the same process to log-on at<br />
home as they will learn at school. We encourage students to update<br />
the plan throughout the school year and summer. The Parent Portal for<br />
the Individual Learning Plan may be accessed at the same site as the<br />
Infinite Campus Parent Portal. However, logging onto the Parent<br />
Portal for the Individual Learning Plan requires a different username<br />
and password for each student. Please contact Crosby Middle school<br />
for the parent username and password for each child enrolled.<br />
Infinite Campus/Parent Portal<br />
A letter updating household information and securing your email address<br />
was sent home the week of December 1, 2008. Please make sure<br />
that this form is updated and returned to insure access to your child’s<br />
information on Infinite Campus. Upon return of the household confirmation,<br />
you will be emailed an access code for the Parent Portal of<br />
Infinite Campus. This will enable you to view your child’s grades<br />
and progress in many classes. Parent Portal began January 12, 2009.<br />

Counselors Tips of the Month<br />
How many students have unlimited text messaging plans? While these<br />
plans are convenient and cost effective because teens seem to be using<br />
cell phones to text more than talk, students may become braver and<br />
more daring in their communication with peers when using this system<br />
of communication. It can become another method to bully and intimidate<br />
peers as some teens may text things that they typically would not<br />
say to someone else. Parents of children that have text messaging<br />
capabilities on their cell phones should have a system to monitor incoming<br />
and outgoing text messages.<br />
Parents, we are continuing to include the information about Alco-Pops<br />
to raise awareness.<br />
ALCO-POPS TARGET TEENS:<br />
The Energy Drink Market is youth driven. In 2007, 500 new<br />
energy drinks were introduced, 20 of the brands that<br />
launched these drinks were alcoholic.<br />
Alco-pops are trainer drinks for youth who may not actually like<br />
the taste of alcohol, but like the sweet flavor of these Malt<br />
Beverages.<br />
Packaging makes it difficult to tell non-alcoholic drinks from<br />
beverages containing alcohol.<br />
Alco-pops are often only marketing online, whose primary audience<br />
are the internet savvy youth.<br />
Retailers don’t always position these products in the “beer cave”<br />
where only 21+ are permitted.<br />
Alco-pops are an even greater health risk to teens. The stimulant<br />
effects of energy drinks mask the depressant effects of the<br />
alcohol, and creates a sense that the person is not impaired.<br />
Energy Drinks and Alcoholic beverages both contribute to dehydration,<br />
hindering a person’s ability to metabolize alcohol.<br />
How to tell the difference between Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic:<br />
Read the can: “Warning this drink contains alcohol.”<br />
Look for the Surgeon General‟s Warning and the ALC/VOL.<br />
Non-alcoholic drinks will always display the nutrition facts.<br />

Box Tops—You Rock!!<br />
Once again Crosby families came through! The PTSA submitted<br />
another 543.20 worth of Box Tops in February. That brings our total<br />
for the year to $1,429.20<br />
Thanks to everyone for their participation!<br />
The homerooms who enjoyed an ice cream party were… Ms.<br />
Turnbull, Ms. Helm, and Mr. Quinn.<br />
Keep clipping and saving. Box Tops do have an expiration date and<br />
many are June 1 st . Please make sure to send those in before the end<br />
of the school year so we don’t lose out easy money. If you have a<br />
few extra seconds please trim around each Box Top.<br />
Another easy way to help our school is to sign up for the Box Tops<br />
website at boxtops4education.com. You’ll get updates on our<br />
school’s Box Tops earnings, money-saving coupons, family-pleasing<br />
recipes, chances to win Bonus Box Tops, the latest Box Tops news<br />
and much, much more. Best of all, it’s absolutely free!<br />

Adventurer Team<br />
The Invention Convention is coming soon! Adventurers<br />
have identified problems and needs, developed innovative<br />
solutions, researched their invention ideas and built<br />
working models. Please visit us in the gym on March<br />
26th between 9:45 and 2:00 when we will be exhibiting our work.<br />
We're proud to announce that the Adventurer Students of the Month<br />
for March are Thomas Rosbottom, Mary Jenkins, Hayley Washington,<br />
Jaylin Lee and Lilly Edwards. They are trustworthy, attentive,<br />
helpful to others and take responsibility for their actions. Way to go!<br />
While the wind and ice storms changed the last day of school, our trip<br />
schedule remains the same. The New York trip will leave after school<br />
on May 29 and return before school starts on the morning of June 2.<br />
These students will be excused from one day of school, but return for<br />
final exams. The Kings Island trip will be on Friday, May 15 from<br />
8AM to 8PM. We will have just finished the CATS tests, so if a student<br />
has any incomplete parts he/she will have to stay at school and<br />
finish the test. Students can go for $35 and parent chaperones for $45.<br />
Reservations will be taken until Spring Break and will be confirmed in<br />
full-bus amounts.<br />
Explorer Team<br />
In social studies we have been learning about the Middle<br />
Ages. Your child should be able to tell you about feudalism,<br />
manors, knights and more. I have used a variety<br />
of materials to cover the content to better prepare them for the<br />
test. However, nothing can replace studying. Our next unit of study<br />
will be the Renaissance.<br />
On April 30th we are going to Financial Park for a field trip. Students<br />
will start a workbook provided by Junior Achievement to prepare them<br />
for the real-world activities that they will be doing at the site. They<br />
will learn how to write checks, keep a check register, and about making<br />
budgets. I will need one chaperone for every ten students to meet<br />
Junior Achievement's guidelines. I will send home a letter with more<br />
information in a few weeks. Junior Achievement pays for our busses<br />
and we will take our lunch so there is no cost for this field trip.<br />
Science students have a super homework packet that includes three<br />
assignments due Mar. 27, Apr. 10 and Apr. 17. Make sure you ask<br />
your child about it.<br />
In Language Arts, we are working on our reflective pieces to finish up<br />
our portfolios.<br />
Have a safe Spring break!<br />
Mariner Team<br />
These are just a few questions that your child should have<br />
answered for you at the student led conferences in February.<br />
If you didn't get to talk to your child during or after<br />
the conferences please ask them these questions<br />
now. They should be able to answer for you, these have been true<br />
since August!<br />
Where do each of the teachers put their agendas?<br />
What is the name of Mrs. Gleeson's fish?<br />
Who loves gourds?<br />
Who is a member of the winning team of teachers (the bandana thing)?<br />
How many pairs of shoes do you think Mrs. Gleeson owns?<br />
What two pieces of writing did you choose for your portfolio?<br />
Is your language arts binder organized? Do you have enough paper?<br />
Is your grammar workbook pink or red?<br />
What has been the hardest grammar unit for you this year?<br />
What teacher has homework due at the end of a week instead of every<br />
night?<br />
Where is the math makeup work located?<br />
Where do you find papers in math with no name on them?<br />
Where is Mrs. Beagle's work listed for the six weeks?<br />
Which teacher is obsessed (not like that is a bad thing) with coffee?<br />
Who is a die-hard Louisville Cardinal fan?<br />
In which class should you always start the warm-up as soon as you<br />
enter?<br />
In which class should you always show your work?<br />
In which class do you always have to head your paper a certain way?<br />
In which class should you always complete class work as homework if<br />
you don't finish?<br />
What is the purpose of Mrs. Gleeson's sea salt?<br />
We hope that you enjoyed the student led conferences. Please let us<br />
know how these conferences helped you.<br />
The Mariner Team Teachers.<br />
Pathfinder Team<br />
Pathfinder Language Arts: Pathfinder students got some<br />
very important mail this week...from President Barack<br />
Obama. He was thanking the students for their letters<br />
welcoming him and his family to the White House. The president<br />
asked for their help "to renew our Nation's promise to carry forth the<br />
great gift of freedom to future generations". Now that's writing for a<br />
purpose!<br />
Pathfinders Social Studies: Over the next six-weeks, Pathfinders will<br />
work on the Junior Achievement Finance Park program that lets participants<br />
experience what it takes to create and manage a personal<br />
budget. Students are introduced to the banking, clothing, education,<br />
entertainment, food, healthcare, home improvement, housing, investing<br />
and transportation industries. Most important of all, the hands-on<br />
nature of JA Finance Park helps students develop a realistic understanding<br />
of the economic issues they will face later in life.<br />
Pathfinder Science: We are well into our Force and Motion<br />
unit. Homework policy for the remainder of the year has<br />
changed. Students received all of the homework assignment options<br />
for the 5th grading period on 3/9/09. They are to select 1 assignment<br />
from each category. Each category has an assigned due date. The<br />
same will be repeated for the 6th grading period. If you have not already<br />
signed off on the packet, please ask your child. I have attached<br />
all related documents to my page at Yourclasspage.com/5024858235.<br />
Ask your child about Student Responders. We are using these in science<br />
for Formative (just to "see" where students are) and Summative<br />
(graded) Assessments. They are very cool devices that allow teacher<br />
and student to get immediate feedback.<br />

Trailblazer Team<br />
The Trailblazer team has had a busy few weeks. We have<br />
finally finished portfolio pieces in subject areas and we are<br />
working on increasing critical thinking and rigor in all<br />
areas.<br />
Social Studies classes are studying Europe and all its countries, climates,<br />
products, geography, industries and culture. We have spent a<br />
lot of time on Europe and still have another chapter to cover before we<br />
move on to Russia. The students have learned a lot during this unit<br />
and have a test coming up to cover all of Europe. We are also working<br />
on using capital letters correctly and accurate spelling.<br />
Science classes will finish up our Fossils unit and be moving on to<br />
Astronomy. The kids are always excited about this unit and I am<br />
really looking forward to it.<br />
Math classes will be studying topics such as Probability, Data Analysis,<br />
and Geometry concepts such as transformations, volume, and surface<br />
area. Students will also study pre-algebra concepts. Mr. Chris<br />
Peters, a student teacher from Murray State University, will be working<br />
with all Math classes until May 1.<br />
In Language Arts classes students made coat hanger carousels to<br />
illustrate their young adult novels. They have also completed personal<br />
narratives for their portfolios and are learning to write short stories.<br />
We have no field trips planned prior to Spring Break and we will be<br />
gearing up for testing after Spring Break. A reminder to students to<br />
dress in layers as the building is very hot this time of year and we need<br />
to be able to take off those sweatshirts.<br />
We are looking forward to our end-of-the-year trip to Kings Island on<br />
Friday, May 15 th . Students will be able to enjoy the many attractions<br />
of Kings Island while participating in Math & Science Day activities.<br />

public. All schools have a notary available free of charge. Please help us by observing these guidelines:<br />
1. The medicine should be delivered by the parent/guardian to the school with complete instructions and in the original container with the<br />
prescription label attached. You are also required to pick up any remaining medication at the end of treatment.<br />
2. We request that medication not be sent to school with students. If you must, please put the medication bottle in a sealed envelope.<br />
3. Please send a minimum supply only and notify us regarding medicine needing refrigeration.<br />
4. We must be notified in writing of reaction symptoms, which may occur before or after any medication is taken.<br />
5. Except in extreme emergencies, AM medication is to be taken at home. Midday administration will be at approximately 10:30 a.m. For<br />
other special needs, please see one of the counselors.<br />
6. Unless you notify us otherwise, medication may be administered within 45 minutes before or after the time you indicate. If students<br />
arrive late or leave early they may miss a dose.<br />
7. NEVER advise your child to keep medication in a locker, purse or book bag for the day. Medication, including non-prescription drugs,<br />
must be stored in the office for the safety of all students.<br />
If you have any questions, please call 485-8235. Thank you for your efforts to help us maintain the safe administration of medication. Your<br />
cooperation makes a big difference!

Orchestra Notes<br />
It is hard to believe that the end of the school year is almost<br />
here! I’d like to catch you up on what has been<br />
going on and also inform you of what will be taking place<br />
later.<br />
First of all, a big CONGRATULATIONS to the students who participated<br />
in the KMEA Solo and Ensemble Festival in February. We<br />
earned 22 distinguished ratings, 2 proficient ratings, and one apprentice<br />
rating. I am very proud of all my students for doing so well.<br />
Another big CONGRATULATION goes to the seventh and eighth<br />
grade orchestras for earning a distinguished rating at the KMEA Or-<br />
chestra Festival held at the University of Louisville School of Music<br />
on Wednesday, March 11. The students performed beautifully and<br />
represented Crosby very well.<br />
April and May will be quite busy for us as we prepare for our spring<br />
concert. It is scheduled for Tuesday, April 28 at 7:00. Students are to<br />
be here at 6:30 in order to tune and are to wear their formal black and<br />
white. This is a required concert and is a MAJOR part of their grade.<br />
Please make note of the date.<br />
Due to the timing of CATS testing and the rescheduling of team field<br />
trips caused by the ice storm, we will not be taking a field trip to the<br />
elementary schools this spring. It is important for all students to be in<br />
classes before the CATS testing dates in order to be properly prepared.<br />
There will be several grade level field trips during the weeks following<br />
CATS testing. We will also need ample time at the end of the school<br />
year to properly prepare instruments for storage as we prepare for the<br />
heating and air conditioning renovation.<br />
If you have any questions, you are welcome to call me at 485-8235 or<br />
e-mail me at marsha.webb@jefferson.kyschools.us. Thank you for<br />
your continued support! I look forward to seeing everyone at our<br />
spring concert.<br />

Lady Cougar Basketball<br />
CONGRATULATIONS to the Lady Cougar Varsity<br />
Basketball Team for an incredible season. This year’s<br />
team won the District Four Regular Season and District<br />
Tournament for the second straight year. They also won the 3 rd Annual<br />
Class Act JR. LIT <strong>Jefferson</strong> <strong>County</strong> Championship for the second<br />
consecutive season in undefeated fashion finishing up the year<br />
with 15 wins and 0 losses. They have now WON 28 CONSECU-<br />
TIVE GAMES against <strong>Jefferson</strong> <strong>County</strong> opponents.<br />
The Lady Cougar Varsity Team finished second in the 2008 Kentucky<br />
Middle School State Basketball Championship game back in<br />
November losing in overtime to Lebanon Middle School. This was<br />
their first time participating in the state tournament. The loss at this<br />
game left the Lady Cougars with a combined record of 20 wins and<br />
1 loss.<br />
The team was led by a strong eighth grade class and tri-captains;<br />
China Dow, Katie Long and Max Zimmer. This eighth grade<br />
class leaves with a three year record of 43 wins and only 5 losses for<br />
a 90 % career winning percentage. Their accomplishments include<br />
winning the Sixth Grade City Championship, back to back Regular<br />
Season and Tournament District Four Championships and also back<br />
to back LIT Championships. They will be greatly missed and very<br />
hard to replace.<br />
The team looks forward to continuing the great Lady Cougar tradition<br />
with many top returning players such as; Erika Hawkins,<br />
Carolyn Howell, Sophia Dye, Sydney Fone, Jade Spaulding,<br />
Daja Malone, Brandy Ray, Lizzie Valley, Jamila Bland, etc.<br />
These players along with the returning and incoming sixth grade<br />
students should keep us competitive for years to come.<br />
The Lady Cougar Program wants to thank the Crosby staff and fans<br />
who were awesome in their support throughout the season.<br />
Thank You BSA Troop 321!<br />
On Saturday, February 21, members of Boy Scout<br />
Troop 321 including Crosby 6 th graders Nicholas<br />
Cloud and Patrick O‟Brien cleaned up all the<br />
broken tree limbs scattered across the school property.<br />
They cut up the branches and stacked them<br />
next to the storage garage. Troop 321 is sponsored by Middletown<br />
United Methodist Church and they meet on Tuesday<br />
evenings at 7:00pm.<br />
