Your friendly Bookstore Crew
Hello Crosby Families,
What an amazing first two days here at Crosby Middle School. I am excited to see everyone back at it for a full week of learning opportunities for our students. As this is my first official weekly slide deck, please take a moment to review our updated school policies, key calendar dates, and communication tools so you can stay connected.
This week, you’ll receive more information about your students' classes and content covered, as well as Chromebook distribution, to help make this first full week smooth for everyone. Make sure to ask your student about the JCPS Device User Agreement that we sent home on Friday. We need this signed and returned in order for students to be given a Chromebook for the year.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We’re going to make 2025–26 a fantastic year for our students!

What an incredible start to the 2025–26 school year! Our students brought awesome energy and a readiness to learn, and our staff went above and beyond to make these first two days engaging and welcoming. I am so proud of the teamwork and positivity I’ve seen. This is going to be a fantastic year at #ThePlaceToBe = Crosby Middle School!
Parents, this Monday you will receive our first weekly slide deck, which includes everything you need to know for the upcoming week and beyond. In preparation for Chromebook distribution, we have sent home hard copies of the JCPS Device Usage Agreement. Make sure to sign and have your student return to school. While some parents and guardians may have already completed this in the JCPS Parent Portal, please review the Crosby Repair Policy printed on the back of the form. All documents will also be linked in the weekly update and posted on our website.
See you Monday!
