Seek first to Understand, Then Be Understood:

  • Notes from Mrs. Hinton in the Lunchroom: Parents, please put your child's first and last name on their lunch boxes. Several have been left and will end up unclaimed because of no name.

    If your child brings their lunch and needs to purchase milk, you must send money in with them. Some of you have blocked your child's account so they cannot buy extras, this includes milk. They will need to bring in 50 cents for that or use the water fountain.

    If your child owes the charge limit on their account, they cannot bring money from home to buy snacks or any kind of extras from the cafeteria.
    They will also be turned away from breakfast.

    Thank you for your attention to these matters.
  • Girls on the Run at Crossroads Elementary We are excited to announce that Crossroads will have a Girls on the Run team in the fall!  Girls on the Run is a ten-week after school program that combines physical activity with inspiring, fun lessons that teach girls how to handle the difficult social pressures of adolescence. Girls on the Run provides 3rd - 5th grade girls with the tools they need to become strong, confident, healthy young women who make good choices. The season starts on Sept. 4 and ends with the Girls on the Run Fall 5K on Nov. 17 at Waterfront Park downtown Louisville, where girls from all over the Kentuckiana area celebrate their accomplishments with their families, friends, and community!  Please click here to view a video overview of Girls on the Run. Practices will be held on Tues & Thurs 3:45 - 5:15PM at school. The cost of the program, including the Fall 5K, two t-shirts, a water bottle, snacks, a lifetime of important lessons and much more is $160.  The registration fee can be paid in 3 monthly installments. To register your girl for the Fall 2018 season, please click here .  Team size is limited so don’t delay in registering. Registration closes August 30, 2018.  Financial need scholarships may be available to those who qualify. Please e-mail gotrlouky@gmail.com to find out more.

  • Please LOG ON to School Dismissal Manager and make sure you have set yourself up. We will be using this as our primary dismissal/transportation change tool. If you have NOT received any emails from CES, please contact the office as we will not be utilizing notes in the agenda any longer. You must change transportation on SDM.
  • Also, please make sure you do not check into SDM Fastlane early. If you do, then your child will be looking for you. It is imperative that you wait until the stop sign in front of the building to check in so we have all the cars in order. When leaving the car rider line, please follow all normal safety measures and traffic laws. We have had several neighbors provide feedback that our car rider line has been driving through the stop sign at the end of our driveway and speeding through the subdivision. We want to keep everyone safe, as we do have walkers and bike riders who will be moving through those areas, as well. Thanks for your continued support of a safe environment.
  • 21st Century starts on Wednesday. Please make sure you have the correct dismissal programmed into school dismissal manager.
  • Did you know you can support the PTA all year long? If you shop at Smile.Amazon.com with your normal Amazon Login, the CES PTA can receive a donation?  Add Crossroads Elementary PTA under "Supporting" to help.  Also, if you shop at Kroger, add Crossroads Elementary PTA (GV550) to your Kroger card through Kroger Community Rewards.
  • Please remember to return your Title I Parent Compact.  
The Faculty/Staff of CES and Mrs. Skeens
