CRAZY DAYS OF 5TH GRADE an Iggy the Iguana Book Written by Melissa M. Williams
ble aila ! v A ow N
Crazy Days of 5th Grade is the 3rd book in the Iggy the Iguana chapter book series for children which focuses on themes of the upper elementary classroom, including making new friends, positive changes in learning styles and respect for others. When Iggy’s new teacher, Mr. Gruff the goat, continues to eat his homework, he realizes his old ways of studying are over. It will take the mind of a creative genius and a lot of make-believe to revitalize Iggy’s concentration in class. What started off as a lonely, boring school year missing his best friend Snap Shell the turtle, turns into a suspenseful ride that includes a strange encounter with a crab and an unexpected trip to the hospital. With the help of his friends and his little sister’s stuffed animals, Iggy discovers a hidden talent proving what he once considered a problem was really a gift in disguise.

Cypress Falls Animal Hospital “Strengthening the human-animal bond through comprehensive veterinary care for all stages of your pet’s life”
During the April 12th Board meeting, the Cypress-Fairbanks ISD Board of Trustees passed a resolution calling for a re-examination of the public school accountability system by the Texas Legislature. The resolution states that standardized, high-stakes testing is undermining our mission to prepare students for competitive careers in the global arena. CFISD superintendent Dr. Mark Henry stated, “The educational system is overly dependent on high-stakes, standardized tests. Educators do support accountability, but at the same time, oppose the current system that does not support preparing all of our students to be productive citizens and leaders in a rapidly changing world. Standardized testing, as currently implemented, hinders progress toward a world-class educational system by driving instructional time.” It is the district’s responsibility to produce graduates who are college ready and flexibility is imperative to address quality career and technology education programs for those students who are not college bound. Unfortunately, with the requirements of the current state system, students have very little room in their graduation plans to explore vocational opportunities.

Recently, the CFISD Community Leadership Committee (CLC), whose membership includes parents, business leaders and community members, endorsed the Board’s resolution, which calls for the review of the role of high-stakes testing and its impact on schools. According to Stacye Anderson, CLC community chairperson, “The CLC unanimously agreed to support the CFISD Board of Trustees Resolution Concerning High-stakes, Standardized Testing of Texas Public School Students. We are so glad to see our district become the largest district in the state so far to join this movement to implore our legislators to rethink the current approach to assessment of learning. Although we are extremely supportive of holding schools accountable for teaching all Texas children, the current overemphasis on standardized testing impedes learning and the requirement that the grade on End-of-Course exams be weighted to count as 15 percent of the final course average for high school students is onerous.” Although promotion of high-stakes testing may be based in good intention, adopting the attitude that if a little testing is good, then a lot of testing must be even better is detrimental to our students and their futures. The lack of graduation plan flexibility and the over emphasis on high-stakes tests restricts student career options, which in turn negatively affects our state’s economy. Local school districts must have flexibility to prepare students for a variety of post-high school pursuits, including technical and vocational careers.

CYPRESS RANCH BASEBALL TEAM CLINCHES FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP The Cypress Ranch High School baseball team defeated A&M Consolidated High School, 4-1, in the Class 5A state baseball final on June 9th at the Dell Diamond in Round Rock to clinch its first state championship. The Mustangs (32-8) had a strong pitching performance from junior Zach Brosch, who improved to 8-0 after throwing 5 2/3 innings of four-hit ball with one earned run and four strikeouts. Junior pitcher Jonathan Whitley relieved Brosch in the bottom of the sixth and helped Cypress Ranch out of a bases-loaded jam by forcing a twoout pop fly to right field. Sophomore designated hitter Dalton Stark and sophomore left fielder Bryce Johnson led the Mustangs at the plate, both going 2-for-3. Sophomore center fielder Corbin Martin was named the Class 5A State Tournament Most Valuable Player after going 1-for2 with a home run, two RBIs and a run scored in the title-clinching game. Senior second baseman Bryce Stark, sophomore first baseman Derek Dickerson and senior third baseman Justin Monsour all also recorded hits in the victory.

“I’m In PAIN” Can Chiropractic Help ME ? We are often asked, “What’s the best way of finding out whether or not a doctor of chiropractic can help my problem?” We believe the answer can be found in a complete chiropractic consultation and examination, including x-rays. And to help find out for sure, we will do a complete consultation and examination, including x-rays, if necessary, (procedures that normally cost $187.00 or more) for $25.00. We will make this special program available through July. The only exception to the offer involves personal injury cases (workers’ compensation and auto accidents) in which there is no charge directly to the patient.

Three Cypress Falls Key Club members were selected to receive the Cy-Fair Kiwanis Scholarship. The Kiwanis Club of Cy-Fair, Houston, awarded a $1,000 college scholarship to Layeeka Ismail, the Division 3N Lieutenant Governor and Ryan Nava, the District Secretary. They also awarded a $500 scholarship to Julie Nguyen, the Cypress Falls Historian. Every year, students who have been in Key Club for at least two years, who demonstrate academic success and a commitment to service are given the opportunity to apply for the scholarship. Applicants include information about their Key Club careers, their educational and professional plans and their intentions on joining Circle K International and Kiwanis. Ismail, Nava and Nguyen were chosen because they consistently go beyond what is expected when performing their Key Club duties. On May 21st, Paula Hoffman, the Cypress Falls Kiwanis Advisor, recognized the students’ achievement at the end-of-year banquet. Cypress Falls Key Club members were impressed with the accomplishment and proud the students had received such an honor. The recipients were just as appreciative of the accolade. “I was extremely happy and grateful when I found out I was one of the recipients,” Nguyen said, “Every bit of money helps when it comes to college. It feels really good to know I got recognized for my efforts with Key Club and I know I’ll definitely be involved in numerous other community service organizations in college.”

Copper Corners serviCe Unit
Girl Scout bridging ceremonies took place around the globe last month. It is an important transition in a Girl Scout’s life. It’s a defining moment when a girl becomes aware of her achievements and is ready for new adventures and responsibilities. Girls are honored with achievement awards they have earned that help them move to the next level. Girl Scout Bronze Award The Bronze Award is the highest recognition a Girl Scout Junior can achieve. It helps girls improve the community around them while building leadership skills. To earn this award, a Girl Scout Junior will do a project that shows she understands and lives by the Girl Scout Promise and Law. If a girl decides to earn the Bronze Award, she must complete it before she bridges into Girl Scout Cadettes. Girl Scouts invite you to volunteer this summer and make your community a better place! Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council Copper Corners Service Unit serves all girls in the residence areas for Lowery, Birkes, Fiest Elementary Schools, Aragon and Labay Middle Schools and corresponding high schools.

A POOL IS COOL, BUT ONLY WHEN IT’S SAFE
281-861-0394
Pools make for great summer fun, but they can be an accident waiting to happen. Pools are a great way to beat the heat, but they can be dangerous. Drowning and waterborne infections are threats for adults and children alike. To make sure your memories of pools are happy ones, follow these tips from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Consumer Product safety Commission (CPsC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Make safety a priority. it’s easier than you might think for someone - especially a child - to accidentally fall into a pool. Children can also quietly make their way to a pool before anyone knows they’re missing.

SUMMER LAWN CARE
RECIPES
In summer, lawns get hammered. There’s extra wear and tear from weekend play, stress from summer heat and corresponding pressure to cut back on watering due to increased utility rates. But if you start a sensible lawn-care program now, you can strengthen your turf going into summer, help it stay greener and give it a better chance against the ravages of insects and disease.

GRILLING SEASONAL VEGETABLES By Paula Deen Test Kitchen
-
Grilling fresh seasonal vegetables is a not only a healthy way to prepare them, it’s also a snap! Why dirty up another bowl, pan or dish after a long day? Not to mention the ease and speediness in which dinner is ready and the cost effectiveness of grilling a side dish. The exclamation points are the appealingly sweet smoky flavor that a grill imparts and the bright colors left behind.
This is a very easy, no-bake recipe to create a flag dessert within a couple of minutes.
Here are some handy grilling tips for preparing vegetables along with a couple of recipe ideas. We hope the next time you have a chance to pick vegetables fresh from the garden or your local farmers market you use these tips and cook them on the grill.

Vegetable Grilling Tips: ** Spray the grill with non-stick cooking spray prior to heating the grill to help make clean up a snap. **Make sure your grill is medium hot. One way to test this is to place your hand over the grill. If you can hold it there for 4 seconds, the fire is medium hot.

Where plateaus never have to happen!
**Prevent your vegetables from drying out on the grill by soaking them in cold water first. **Vegetables should be cut to expose the most surface area to the grill. This helps them to cook quickly. Also, cut the pieces equal in size so they will cook evenly. For example: Cut your squash and eggplant into strips, not rounds, of the same width. **Use kosher salt or sea salt on your vegetables to bring out extra moisture. Seasoning with salt and pepper both before and after grilling helps to make them sweet and full of flavor. **Someone in the family doesn’t like grilled vegetables? Try this trick. Sprinkle a little sugar on the vegetables half way through the cooking. This gives them a wonderful caramel flavor. **Use tongs to turn your vegetables on the grill instead of a fork. You don’t want to puncture them, as it will release the moisture. **Smaller vegetables such as cherry tomatoes (we’ll just pretend and call this a vegetable) and small mushrooms might fall through the grill and should be skewered first. Thick onion slices should also be skewered all the way through to keep them whole while grilling. I like to use metal skewers instead of bamboo since they don’t burn and I can reuse them. **Because vegetables lack fat, they need oil or some sort of liquid marinade to prevent them from burning and sticking to the grill. Brush them with a vegetable oil or flavored oil such as a prepared salad dressing prior to placing on the grill. You can also marinate them in a prepared dressing or your own marinade recipe.
