Villages of Cypress Lakes Yahoo Group 

We have a Yahoo Group for Villages of Cypress Lakes Neighborhoods. 

Everyone is invited to join. Great way for us to all stay informed on day-today 

activities in our neighborhood. Feel free to post concerns, garage sales, 

things for sale, things you are looking to purchase & more! http://groups. 

yahoo.com/group/villagesofcypresslakes/. If you have any questions or 

need help signing up feel free to email Kim@PrettyPinkLimos.com. 

Neighborly Reminder 

This is a beautiful community. In helping to keep it that way, it would be 

great to remind people that they should clean up after their pets. It is great 

for people to have pets and love their pets, but being a good neighbor is also 

important. We can’t tell you how bad it feels to put work and money into your 

yard so that you and your family can enjoy it and play in it... but then you find 

that other people have left disgusting feces on your yard - for you to find and 

clean up! It is simply not fair. Please be courteous and clean up after your pets! 

Home Improvement – ACC Application 

The Architectural Control Committee would like to remind you that 

approval is needed before you begin an exterior project or change to your 

home. This includes exterior painting, new roofs, fences, pools, basketball 

goals, etc. With your completed ACC form, please note what is needed for 

your type of improvement such as, photos, paint samples, solar screen 

samples, drawings, brochure, lot survey and your signature. If these 

items are not submitted with your application, your request is denied and 

returned to you for completion. Please read the application carefully. 

• A lot survey is an architectural drawing of your property showing your home, 

easements and building lines. A copy usually comes with your closing papers. 

• Please show on the survey in a distinguishable color, other than black ink, 

the location of your project. • Faxed pictures come across as a solid black 

picture, so please mail or email pictures. Faxed pictures cannot be used. You 

will be notified by letter after the ACC committee has made a decision. 

They have at least 30 days to review and respond to your application. 

You will find an ACC form at www.crest-management.com or you may 

contact Crest Management at 281-579-0761 for more details. 

Teenage Job Seekers 

If you are between 12 and 18 and would like to be added to the

want on your form. Please make sure your email is correct, we send

will remove you from the list until we do. Must have parent(s) permission. 

DISCLAIMER: Neither the subdivision, nor Krenek Printing is responsible for those listed on the

Garden Tips 

For August 

• Time now to make plans for fall landscaping projects. 

• Clean up flowerbeds of fallen foliage, yellowed leaves 

and dead wood. Light green leaves may signify lack of 

iron (chlorosis). Correct with iron cheleates. 

• Cut off old dead foliage on irises. Scratch in a little 

bone meal around the roots. 

• Prune roses to reshape and groom plants for fall 

growth. 

• Wait until November to plant petunias and pansies. 

• Chinch bug damage is obvious now. You will have 

areas of thin and/or dead turf where they weren’t 

brought under control. There is a new generation going 

now. This batch causes the most damage. Use Dursban 

to stop the damage. 

• Until the weather gets back to the 80’s, St. Augustine 

grass grows slowly. If you fill in with sod, don’t expect a 

fast turnaround. The sod may look like it’s not growing 

while it puts down roots. You will need to water the 

new sod often and deeply to get it started but this also 

creates a disease environment. Water early so the sun 

can dry the turf. 

• Now is a good time to work new beds. Till them up, 

add organic material, mix it in, then let them cure for 

a month or so. Add in any amendments like micronutrients. 

Keep the beds moist so the microorganisms 

have a favorable environment.

NUTRITION SERVICES TEAM 

OFFERS FREE SUMMER MEALS 

Starting this summer, CFISD’s nutrition services department will offer 

children 18 and younger the healthy Seamless Summer Option (SSO) 

breakfasts and lunches at no cost to the child. “The SSO program is a 

great way for us to provide access to meals for our students during the 

summer months,” said Darin Crawford, director of nutrition services. 

“Kids need good nutrition to fuel their summer activities and we are 

thrilled to be able to continue to offer school meals during the long 

summer break.” SSO is a U.S. Department of Agriculture nutrition 

program and is administered by the Texas Department of Agriculture. 

The meals offered through SSO give children who rely on school meals 

during the academic year a good source of nutrition during the long 

summer vacation. Summer meals help children return to school in the 

fall ready to thrive. 

All sites are open Monday-Thursday only. For a full list of sites, dates and 

times, visit the district website at: www.cfisd.net/en/parents-students/ 

food-service/summer-meal-sites. 

CFISD STUDENTS RECORD PERFECT 

SCORES ON ACT, SAT TESTS 

A select group of CFISD rising juniors and seniors and two recent 

graduates were among the notable high school students to earn the 

highest possible composite scores on the ACT assessment and SAT 

standardized tests over the last 12 months. 

Cypress Creek High School rising junior Samhitha Bandi and rising senior 

Hasan Abbasi, Cypress Woods High School rising senior Tristan Wiesepape 

and Cy-Fair High School rising senior Yash Aggarwal and 2019 graduates 

Stephanie Pickrell and Tate Ward all earned the top composite ACT score 

of 36. In addition, Cypress Woods rising senior Angela Zhong earned the 

highest possible score on the SAT, recording a perfect 1,600. Less than 

two-tenths of 1 percent of all ACT test takers earn the top possible score. 

For the SAT, of the more than 2.1 million test takers in the Class of 2018, 

just seven percent scored a 1,400 or above. Many prepared by working 

through practice exams and preparatory questions and scenarios. They 

didn’t just focus on what they didn’t know right away, but also sections 

that took them longer than others. Tutoring sessions and other resources 

like Khan Academy, a non-profit online educational platform, helped 

prepare students for the test format as well as the material. Taking both 

tests within a few months of each other also helped in the process, as 

material can be relevant to both exams even though the formats differ. 

The ACT incudes five sections (English, math, reading, science and 

writing), with each timed separately and the total exam taking 3 hours 

and 35 minutes to finish. The SAT can take 3 hours and 50 minutes to 

finish, as it includes five sections (reading, writing, math with and 


without a calculator and an optional essay). Rising seniors took the ACT 

in February during the school day, becoming a benchmark for some or a 

desired achievement for others. As far as passing on any tips or advice to 

other students preparing for the ACT and SAT, those who accomplished 

the perfect scores say it ranges from managing stress leading into the 

test days to simply practicing with sample questions and exams. 

13 CFISD SCHOOLS NAMED TO 

2018-2019 TEXAS HONOR ROLL 

Thirteen CFISD schools have been named to the 2018-2019 Texas Honor 

Roll, presented by the Educational Results Partnership (ERP). The ERP 

recognizes public elementary, middle and high schools that demonstrate 

high levels of student academic achievement, improvement in 

achievement over time and reduction in achievement gaps. For high 

schools, Honor Roll recognition includes measures of college readiness 

in students. The following CFISD schools are among the 855 public 

schools in Texas to be recognized: 

• Copeland Elementary School • Moore Elementary School 

• Pope Elementary School • Sampson Elementary School 

• Anthony Middle School • Aragon Middle School 

• Arnold Middle School • Bridgeland High School 

• Cy-Fair High School • Cypress Park High School 

• Cypress Ranch High School • Cypress Woods High School 

• Jersey Village High School 

“These Honor Roll schools are living proof that our students can succeed 

when schools are committed to removing educational obstacles and 

accelerating student success,” Dr. James Lanich, ERP president and CEO, 

said. “By focusing attention on these bright spots among our schools, 

we hope to change the conversation from ‘what’s wrong’ to ‘what’s 

working,’ and encourage others to replicate their success.” Texas Honor 

Roll schools will receive a free banner to display on their campuses and 

will be featured on the ERP website, where educators and policymakers 

can look for high-performing schools in order to replicate success.

Taylor Powers and photography teacher, Tina Fox 

CYPRESS WOODS HS GRADUATE EARNS $10,000 

NATIONAL ART SCHOLARSHIP 

Cypress Woods High School graduate Taylor Powers is one of eight 

$10,000 art portfolio recipients awarded by the Scholastic Art & Writing 

Awards through the nonprofit Alliance for Young Artists and Writers. 

Powers traveled to New York City in June with her family and photography 

teacher, Tina Fox, for the prestigious national awards ceremony. This 

year, Scholastic recognized 800 teen Gold Medalists selected from more 

than 340,000 national entries from young artists and writers, all ranging 

from 7 th to 12 th grade. Locally, Powers’ portfolio was chosen last winter 

by a panel of art professionals from the Harris County Department of 

Education (HCDE), a regional affiliate of the awards. Powers’ future career 

plans include attending community college until she hears back from 

the esteemed Savannah College of Art and Design, her dream college. 

Powers is also quick to credit Fox for encouraging and pushing her artistic 

endeavors while thanking her mother, Letitia, for influencing her creativity 

and buying the digital camera to help her forge her artistic pathway.
