STILL ON THE FENCE ABOUT HOSTING AN<br />
EXCHANGE STUDENT?<br />
You don’t have any kids? Are you a single parent? Same sex couple? An<br />
empty nester? This is not a problem, we place our students in all kinds<br />
of families! You’re not rich? Neither am I! Your exchange student comes<br />
with their own spending money and health insurance. All you provide is<br />
room/board and three meals a day. Oh and TLC…but that’s free. Live in<br />
the middle of nowhere? Small town? Not a big deal. Some kids prefer to<br />
get away from the hustle and bustle of big cities. The exchange students<br />
also do pretty well in small schools, as they usually get to be the center of<br />
attention and make friends rather quickly. Our students also get chances<br />
to travel to New York, Washington DC, Hawaii and California…so they<br />
can get their fill of the city life and return back to the peaceful sounds of<br />
nature. Do you consider yourself a boring person? More than likely this<br />
is not true and you should quit being so hard on yourself. Your student<br />
will make friends. Your student will meet other exchange students. Your<br />
student will attend activities offered by our program. Your student will<br />
get involved in sports and school clubs. Your purpose is not to entertain<br />
them. But you might find that you bring a little adventure to each others<br />
lives. Kids are too young? Great! Lots of students love young kids and<br />
your kids will love them. It’s beneficial to introduce your kids to new<br />
cultures at a very young age. You’re preparing them to accept people no<br />
matter what the religion, color of their skin or language they speak. That<br />
my friend, is good parenting. Don’t hold back! This is a gret experience for<br />
both parties. You get the opportunity to change a child’s life. You get the<br />
satisfaction of seeing them grow, even after they leave your home into<br />
becoming a doctor, a lawyer, a diplomat, artist, teacher…the list goes<br />
on. And you contributed to that success! And the best part of it all, is<br />
you gain another family member for life. We need people like you to give<br />
these kids a chance. STS Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization whose<br />
mission is to place exchange students in our area. If you are interest in<br />
hosting, please contact me at 832-455-7881 or at vicki.stsfoundation@<br />
yahoo.com. I’ll be happy to answer any question you might have and get<br />
you started on hosting your very own student!<br />

IMPORTANT DATES<br />
<strong>February</strong> 17th: Professional Day/Inclement<br />
Weather Day<br />
BOARD APPROVES BOUNDARY<br />
CHANGES FOR <strong>2020</strong>-2021<br />
The CFISD Board of Trustees approved the administration’s<br />
recommendation for the establishment of attendance boundaries for<br />
Rowe Middle School and rezoning modifications of multiple campus<br />
attendance boundaries effective for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 school year during<br />
the regularly scheduled meeting on December 16 th .<br />
The approved boundary plan provides enrollment relief for Thornton and<br />
Anthony middle schools for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 school year. Other impacted<br />
campuses are Hopper and Kahla middle schools, Cypress Park and Cypress<br />
Springs high schools and Hemmenway, Walker, Wilson and Tipps elementary<br />
schools. The boundary proposal allows Rowe Middle School, which will open<br />
in August <strong>2020</strong>, to open with sixth, seventh and eighth grades. The proposal<br />
aligns feeder patterns while amending boundary lines for new developments.<br />
Per CFISD boundary transfer policies: Any middle school student affected<br />
by this boundary change who will be in eighth grade for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021<br />
school year may remain at their current middle school on a student<br />
transfer if their parents provide transportation. This opportunity will not<br />
be available for younger siblings; • Students who are affected by a high<br />
school boundary change who will have an older sibling in 10 th , 11 th or<br />
12 th grades attending the affected high school may choose to transfer to<br />
their original high school rather than attend the high school designated<br />
by the rezoning. The sibling transfer will remain eligible for UIL varsity<br />
participation and they will be allowed to remain until graduation and<br />
• Any elementary school student affected by this boundary change who<br />
will be in fifth grade for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 school year may remain at their<br />
current elementary school on a student transfer if their parents provide<br />
transportation. This opportunity will not be available for younger siblings.<br />

Boy Scout Troop 609 is a specialized for Boys with high functioning<br />
Autism Spectrum Disorders. They meet at the Westview School on the 1 st<br />
and 3 rd Saturday of the month from 9:30-11:30 AM.<br />
BOY SCOUT TROOP 838<br />
Troop 838 is a small pack located near Hwy 6 and West Road at the<br />
Crossbridges Church. We are between the Copperfield and Aberdeen<br />
neighborhoods. Being a smaller troop allows us to be flexible and address<br />
the needs of our scouts more nimbly. We currently have boys from ages<br />
11 to 17 within our group working to make Eagle.<br />
We try to camp monthly, with a wide variety of locations on our agenda.<br />
The different locations are chosen by the senior boys to more directly<br />
meet our training needs and to keep expenses low. In fact, we have some<br />
of the lowest expenses in the area.<br />
Our adult leaders are all experienced with years of scouting under their<br />
belt per individual. We also work closely with several local packs of cub<br />
scouts and participate in civic duties around the area as well. Please<br />
contact us at TROOP838CYPRESS.ORG or 414-331-3321.<br />
TROOP 1865<br />
Troop 1865 runs a diverse program of outdoor and service activities,<br />
with events selected by the scouts themselves. We meet Mondays at 6:30<br />
PM, at the Copperfield HOA building on Willow River and Hwy 6, behind<br />
Labay. We’ve gone backpacking through the National Forest, rappelling<br />
off Enchanted Rock, Survival camping, boating, canoeing and anything<br />
else the scouts can dream up. We do high-adventure camping at Philmont<br />
and Seabase. Our advancement program has enabled scout to achieve<br />
the coveted rank of Eagle Scout at 10 times the national average rate.<br />
We see scouting as a practice run on adult life. Scouts learn about<br />
leadership and teamwork through having to work together in the field.<br />
We learn about responsibility through fund-raising activities that have<br />
allowed the entire troop to pay for their own summer camp each year.<br />
CUB SCOUT PACK 2<br />
We are an active year round pack for Kindergarten-5 th grade that focuses<br />
on life skills, teamwork, leadership and FUN! Cub Scout activities include<br />
camping, fishing, pinewood derby, hiking and much more! During the<br />
school year we meet on the 3 rd Monday of each month at 7 PM at Birkes<br />
Elementary in the cafeteria. Contact me for more information and to find<br />
out what exciting activities we have planned for summer! Ame Lane-281-<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA -<br />
COPPERHEAD DISTRICT<br />
For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found<br />
in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant in<br />
helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting<br />
helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership<br />
skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.<br />
The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities<br />
that allow them to:<br />
• Try new things.<br />
• Provide service to others.<br />
• Build self-confidence.<br />
• 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 />
Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting<br />
through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which<br />
help our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston<br />

NATIONAL BLACK HISTORY MONTH<br />
<strong>February</strong> is National Black History Month, also known as National<br />
African American History Month, a time for all Americans to celebrate<br />
the achievements of African Americans and recognize their central role<br />
in American history.<br />
Other countries, including Canada and Great Britain, have also set aside<br />
months to honor black history. The month of <strong>February</strong> was chosen to<br />
coincide with the birthdays of President Abraham Lincoln and noted civil<br />
rights advocate Frederick Douglass. The first record of Africans arriving in<br />
North America is dated 1619, when a privateer ship carrying “twenty and<br />
odd” Africans landed at Point Comfort, Virginia, which is now modernday<br />
Hampton, Virginia. The Africans were traded as slaves in exchange<br />
for provisions.<br />
African-American’s impact our society throughout history and in<br />
numerous ways. Here are just a few prominent individuals we honor this<br />
month:<br />
• Thurgood Marshall was the first African-American appointed to the<br />
Supreme Court. We recognize Thurgood Marshall every year on National<br />
Maryland Day.<br />
• George Washington Carver developed over 300 products from peanuts.<br />
Celebrate George Washington Carver and his contributions to the peanut<br />
industry on National Peanut Day.<br />
• Shirley Chisholm was the first African-American woman elected to U.S.<br />
House of Representatives.<br />
• Rosa Parks helped initiate the Civil Rights Movement by refusing to give<br />
up her seat on the bus in Montgomery, Alabama. Celebrate Rosa Park on<br />
Rosa Parks Day and learn more about her contributions to the Civil Rights<br />
Movement.<br />
• Louis Armstrong is widely known as a jazz pioneer. Information about<br />
Louis Armstrong can be found in November on National Louisiana Day.<br />
• Colin Powell is a 4-star General who became Secretary of State. Colin<br />
Powell dedicated the Buffalo Soldier monument at Fort Leavenworth,<br />
Kansas, establishing the first Buffalo Soldiers Day.<br />
• Barack Obama was elected the first Black President of the United States.<br />
Black History Month was created by twentieth-century historian<br />
Carter Woodson, who believed black Americans were not adequately<br />
represented in the study of American history. Carter Woodson hoped<br />
for the day when black history would be accepted as a part of American<br />
history. Formerly known as Negro History Week, Black History Month was<br />
officially declared by President Gerald Ford in 1976.<br />

NATIONAL BIRD FEEDING MONTH<br />
During National Bird Feeding Month in <strong>February</strong>, keep the bird feeders<br />
filled and your binoculars ready.<br />
Bird watching and feeding have become a popular hobby. By providing<br />
basic shelter and seed, hobbyists watch from their windows or along<br />
trails. While it’s a year-round hobby, watching during the depths of winter<br />
offers some of the most beautiful birding available. Not only do you see<br />
the birds against a white backdrop, but the variety of birds in winter<br />
climates will increase your interest.<br />
• Be sure to feed regularly and place your feeder away from predators.<br />
• Set binoculars near the window for best viewing.<br />
• Obtain a bird book for identifying new species.<br />
FILL UP THE BIRD FEEDER OR ADD ONE THIS MONTH<br />
Use #NationalBirdFeedingMonth to share social media. In 1994,<br />
Congressman John Porter established <strong>February</strong> as National Bird Feeding<br />
Month due to the harsh conditions endured during one of the coldest<br />
months of the year. Source: https://nationaldaycalendar.com<br />

ST. ELIZABETH ANN SETON SCHOLA CANTORUM<br />
Do you want your children to become lifelong servants of the Church?<br />
Singing in a children’s choir is a great way to help that. The St. Elizabeth<br />
Ann Seton Schola Cantorum is currently accepting children Grades 4-12<br />
for its after-school choir program. The choir is responsible for enriching<br />
the Mass on 10:30 on Sundays and rehearses every Wednesday from<br />
3:45-5 PM. Unique in the area, the choir focuses on singing music from<br />
the rich Catholic tradition, including chant and polyphony, as well as the<br />
finest modern church music. Time is devoted to building the children’s<br />
skills of music reading, vocal technique, thinking about the words and<br />
the structure and meaning of the Mass. Service hours are available for<br />
older students. For more information, please contact Dr. Douglas O’Neill<br />

Lighter Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo<br />
Ingredients:<br />
2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts<br />
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth<br />
4 cloves garlic, minced<br />
ground black pepper to taste<br />
2 cups heavy cream<br />
2 egg yolks<br />
salt to taste<br />
1 pound fettuccine<br />
1 sprig chopped fresh parsley<br />
2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, divided<br />
Directions: Combine chicken breasts and chicken broth in a saucepan<br />
over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low;<br />
simmer for 5 minutes. Turn breasts, cover and simmer another 5 minutes.<br />
Remove from heat and let sit with the cover on for 15 minutes.<br />
Remove chicken breasts from the broth and set aside to cool, reserving<br />
the broth in the saucepan. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle,<br />
cut into bite-size slices. Return the chicken broth to medium heat and<br />
cook until reduced to 1 cup. Stir garlic, black pepper and heavy cream<br />
into the reduced broth; bring to a simmer and remove from heat.<br />
Whisk egg yolks in a bowl until smooth. Beat 1 tablespoon of the warm<br />
cream mixture into the eggs until thoroughly incorporated; repeat until<br />
about 1/2 cup of the warm cream mixture is used. Whisk the warm cream<br />
and egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream<br />
mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the<br />
mixture almost comes to a simmer and thickens, about 5 minutes. Season<br />
with salt and black pepper to taste.<br />
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine in<br />
boiling water, stirring occasionally, until nearly cooked through, about<br />
7 minutes. Drain.<br />
Stir parsley, 1 cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano and cream mixture into the<br />
pasta. Remove from heat, cover and let sit for a few minutes until thick.<br />
Fold chicken and 1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano into the pasta mixture to<br />
serve.<br />
