Gardening Tips<br />

Garden Tips For <strong>September</strong><br />

Time now to make plans for fall landscaping projects.<br />

• Clean up flowerbeds of fallen foliage, yellowed leaves and dead wood.<br />

Light green leaves may signify lack of iron (chlorosis). Correct with iron<br />

cheleates.<br />

• Cut off old dead foliage on irises. Scratch in a little bone meal around<br />

the roots.<br />

• Prune roses to reshape and groom plants for fall growth. Follow up with<br />

a dose of fertilizer the first week of <strong>September</strong>.<br />

• Plants come out of summer rest and go crazy. Insect populations<br />

explode as we get into cooler temperatures. Diseases that have been<br />

dormant wake up.<br />

- Citrus, croton, avocado and mango are susceptible to spider mites and<br />

thrips. Discourage them with a strong jet of water from a hose directed to<br />

the undersides of the leaves.<br />

- Hibiscus, citrus, palms, gardenia and ixora are susceptible to scale<br />

and mealybug.<br />

• Winter vegetable gardens and perennials get planted.<br />

• Wait until November to plant petunias and pansies.<br />

• Fire ants baits should be put out in <strong>September</strong>-October to lessen the<br />

number of eggs that make it to Spring.<br />

• St. Augustine grass gets its fall fertilizer during <strong>September</strong>. Continue<br />

to mow at maximum height. You want to leave a lot of leaf surface to<br />

produce carbohydrate reserves for the winter.<br />

• Keep an eye out for sod webworms. First sign of them is grass that<br />

appears to stop growing. You need to get them early for biological<br />

controls to work. When the caterpillars are only 1/4 inch, Bacillus<br />

thuringiensis applications can slow them. Bt is a bacteria that works on<br />

the caterpillars’ digestive systems and makes them stop feeding. Do the<br />

application late in the day. The larvae feed at night and you want them<br />

to get nice fresh Bt.<br />

• When the heat and drought end, the weather could bring brown patch<br />

disease in the St. Augustine grass. Watch for yellowish spots if the nights<br />

drop into the 60’s and days stay in the 80’s.<br />

• Get any pruning of hedges and such done now. You want the flush of<br />

new growth to be hardened-off before the end of October. Tree pruning<br />

should be put off until winter, when the trees are dormant.<br />

• Pre-emerge herbicide applications targeting annual bluegrass and<br />

the earlier-germinating winter broadleaf weeds needed to be put out<br />

starting in mid-August.<br />

CFISD EARNS NINTH STRAIGHT<br />

TEXAS SMART SCHOOLS 5-STAR RATING<br />

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD earned its ninth consecutive five-star rating in the<br />

Texas Smart Schools Initiative, an online resource that aims to improve<br />

education by identifying Smart Schools that are both effective and<br />

efficient. Gathering data on both academic progress and spending, each<br />

school district and campus is assigned a Smart Score of one to five stars. A<br />

five-star rating indicates the strongest level of relative academic progress<br />

combined with the lowest relative spending. CFISD is one of 51 public<br />

and charter school districts across the state to earn a five-star rating. In<br />

addition, CFISD has earned the highest possible rating in all nine years of<br />

the Texas Smart Schools program. Texas Smart Schools uses three-year<br />

averages to obtain more stable and persistent measures of academic<br />

progress and spending. The <strong>2019</strong> Texas Smart Schools results are based<br />

on data from the 2015-2016, 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 school years.<br />

JUNIOR POLICE ACADEMY CONNECTS<br />

YOUNG STUDENTS WITH OFFICERS<br />

In finding new ways to be engaged with the CFISD community, the<br />

district’s Police Department recently completed its first-ever Junior<br />

Police Academy, giving students a week of learning and activities and<br />

helping foster the relationship between officers and their constituents.<br />

Created for 9-and-10-year-old students, the academy featured sessions<br />

at Cypress Ridge (June) and Cypress Springs (July) high schools.<br />

Originally set up for 45 participants per session, the academy swelled to<br />

96 in total attendance. Participants were grouped together into smaller<br />

squads, with officers serving as mentors and interacting with cadets on<br />

a personal level.<br />

Officers and cadets alternated between outdoor activities, hands-on<br />

instruction and classroom training each day. Session topics included<br />

social media safety, stereotyping and bullying, gang prevention, drug<br />

prevention and gun safety. Cadets learned mapping skills and tourniquet<br />

application among others, while other activities emphasized team<br />

building and problem solving. Physical training was incorporated daily,<br />

with cadets competing in an obstacle course. Fun activities were also fit<br />

into the week, giving campers and officers even more opportunities to<br />

interact and connect. Cadets were also treated to unique meet-and-greet<br />

opportunities with local public safety first responders. Police pilots and<br />

tactical flight officers with the Texas Department of Public Safety flew<br />

and landed a helicopter at each campus, while Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire<br />

Department firefighters and paramedics showcased a firetruck.<br />

Members of the Cypress Creek EMS visited cadets at Cypress Springs,<br />

teaching a hands-on lesson on tourniquets. Feedback was positive and<br />

plans are already in place for possible academy expansion in the future.<br />

The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities<br />

that allow them to:<br />

• Try new things. • Provide service to others.<br />

• Build self-confidence. • Reinforce ethical standards.<br />

Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as<br />

individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility<br />

and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made,<br />

peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made.<br />

meet weekly.<br />

Many of our units are supported by the local Elementary Schools<br />

including: Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley,<br />
