As always, this is one of the most fun weeks of the summer. Our goal is to help runners prepare to run for fun, fitness, and competition. We work hard, enjoy some great guest speakers, and have fun with games and activities to help prepare athletes for cross country season (or build fitness for any fall sport).
Contact Coach Arnold or Coach Horan with any questions.

It is hard to believe, but we have officially entered the final two weeks of the school year! While the excitement of summer is definitely in the air, we are committed to making sure every minute of these last few days counts. Even as end-of-year projects and special activities begin, we are maintaining our "bell-to-bell" structure in every classroom. We know that students feel most successful when they know exactly what to expect. By keeping our daily routines consistent, we help everyone stay focused and calm, even when "summer mode" starts to kick in.
Thank you to all of you who have contributed to our Teacher Appreciation Week! Check out the Crosby PTSA Facebook website for some highlights. Check out this link for the remainder of the weekly. https://canva.link/uldim6kzhyob5cy

This week is a truly special one as we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week here at Crosby! I want to take a moment to recognize the incredible educators who make Crosby more than just a school building; they make it a family.
Our teachers are the heartbeat of our culture; their tireless dedication, their support for one another, and their unwavering passion for your children are what make Crosby #ThePlaceToBe!
As we move through KSA testing this week, our staff is working hard to be "lighthouses" for our kids, guiding them with smiles, positive vibes, and the confidence they need to shine. Help our students stay "KSA-mazing" by ensuring they get plenty of rest and a great breakfast before testing!
Please join me this week in showering our teachers with gratitude. A quick note of thanks or a kind word goes a long way in celebrating the people who invest so much in our students' futures.


Current 6th and 7th Graders
We will be holding 3 open gyms prior to the end of school to prepare for the upcoming fall season. ALL girls are welcome to attend, this is not limited to players from last season.
We will be focusing on basic skills and fundamentals to prepare for fall tryouts this summer. If your daughter is interested in trying out, this is a great opportunity to get a feel of the skills I will be looking for at tryouts.
ALL Participants must have a completed physical packet. If your athlete has played or tried out for a sport this school year, they will be good to go.
Open Gyms:
Tuesday, May 5th, Tuesday, May 12th, and Thursday, May 14th, 3:30-5:00, Crosby Gym. Make sure to wear gym shoes!
