VOLUME 8 ISSUE 10 OCTOBER 2014
It’s almost time to applaud Cy-Fair’s educators at the 17th Annual Salute to the Stars Gala. The black-tie, celebratory event to be held on October 16, 2014, at Cy-Fair ISD's Richard E. Berry Center will honor 86 Spotlight teachers, one from each of the district’s campuses. Dinner, entertainment, live auction and a raffle will be featured as community and business leaders and elected and school officials give thanks to those who give so much to the students in the Cy-Fair district.
Each year in April, Cy-Fair ISD recognizes one teacher from each of its campuses who represents a unique balance of skill, art and heart in teaching students in his or her subject area or program. “Spotlight teachers and their guest as well as the principal and his or her guest occupy spots at the school’s table,” said Lauri Baker, event co-chair. “The remaining four seats are for those who sponsor the table. Table sponsorships start at $1,250; however, there are other sponsor opportunities available as well.”
Not only is the event a celebration of the district’s top-notch teachers, but it’s also a way to showcase the talent of students. “Students will perform a drum line performance, those who have won scholarships from the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation will serve as guest speakers and culinary arts students will serve dinner to guests,” said Baker. “Involving our students in the event is a perfect way to remember why we are all here.”
All proceeds raised at the event go to the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation which provides college scholarships for district students as well as staff development grants to CFISD. Last year the event raised over $152,000 for staff development grants and student scholarships, bringing the grand total to over $1.8 million raised since 1998.
This year’s underwriter will be Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital. Also sponsoring in 2014 will be the Cy-Fair Federal Credit Union as the Red Carpet Premiere Sponsor, Bay- IBI Group
Architects as the Superintendent Table Sponsor and Houston Methodist Willowbrook Hospital as the Teacher Appreciation Sponsor.
Baker, who has been involved with organizing the event for ten years, has worked in the school district for 30 years and also serves on the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation Board. “I love working with such a passionate group of dedicated people who put on this great event,” she said. “It’s really a fun night and people are excited to see each other but also so committed to raise money for the Foundation. The community relationship in our district and the compassion of the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation, that does so much for both students and teachers, is unique and rewarding to be a partof,” she said.

The ‘Take Care of Texas’ Quick Guide to RecyclingRecycling allows individuals to give new life to the products
they use. When manufacturers use recycled materials in their products, not only does it conserve natural resources and reduce waste in landfills, it also reduces greenhouse gas emissions through energy savings.
Our national recycling rate is only 34.5 percent annually but is responsible for sending 87 million tons of material to a useful second life instead of the landfill. These recycling efforts save Americans the equivalent of the annual energy consumption of nearly 10 million U.S. households per year and avoids greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions equivalent to removing more than 33 million cars from the road each year.
Please help us increase our annual recycling rate! Visit KeepCyfairBeautiful.org to access the ‘Take Care of Texas’ free publication ‘What Do I Do With It Now?’ and learn more about where to recycle more than just paper, cardboard, bottles and cans!

Cypress 5K Fun Run & Puppy ParadeCypress residents can strengthen their families, their bodies and
an area school all at one fun event this fall.Cypress 5K Fun Run benefiting the Performing Arts Department
at Spillane Middle School kicks off Saturday, November 22nd at 9:00 a.m. Start times will be staggered.
The event is the school’s first Fun Run, but you don't have to be a competitive runner to participate. The run, which will go through the Coles Crossing neighborhood, will feature a timed run, a family run for those pushing strollers or wanting to walk, and a dog walking segment as well.
While generating funds for the school's award-winning Performing Arts programs is important, event organizers want to use this event to strengthen the school's ties to its community as well as encourage community spirit and fitness.
Early bird registration is underway online and continues until November 8th, which includes the cost of a commemorative T-shirt. From Nov. 9nd registration increases to $35 and a T-shirt is not guaranteed. Late registration, which continues until race day, is $40 and does not include the shirt.
Runners who have pre-registered can pick up their packets Thursday, November 20th from 4:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. at Spillane Middle School at 13403 Spillane Woods Blvd.
