Summer 2016
From the Principal
Dear Crooms Academy Families,
I am excited to welcome many of you back and to greet
others to our school community for the first time. This year
marks the 90th Anniversary of Crooms Academy and I am
enthusiastic about the opportunity to continue the focused
instructional direction at our school and to lead our team
to utilize best practices to improve teaching and learning so
that we can continue the legacy of academic excellence.
Crooms AOIT is an A-rated high school for 2016, and we
are the highest performing high school in Seminole County
on almost every performance metric! The school-wide
focus on monitoring students’ progress towards meeting
high standards and the individualized instruction and
remediation structures that we have in place played a key
role in our school exceeding our school improvement goals.
Each year, our school’s instructional and leadership teams
worked hard to establish systems of support through
extensive tutorial opportunities and interventions during
the school day, monitored our students’ progress towards
meeting high standards, and provided individualized
instruction and remediation to help them improve their
performance. Our goal is to continue to focus on our
vision of building a “culture of excellence and success for
every student”. I believe that all students will graduate
college, career, and workplace ready. Our families are
equal partners with us and it is my hope that you will
help us achieve this goal by keeping abreast of your child’s
assignments utilizing Family Access on Skyward, working
with the team as we monitor our students’ progress
throughout the school year, and serving as a supportive
member of the School Advisory Council, PTSA, or as a
Dividend. Parental involvement is a key component in
students’ success and we hope to strengthen our schoolfamily partnership.
From the first day of school through the last day of school, I
want our students to know that we want to provide each of
them with the best educational experience possible and to
maximize their potential.
I am looking forward to greeting each of you at orientation!
Respectfully,
Demetria Hayes Faison, Ed. S., Principal
Crooms Academy of Information Technology

GPA.
College admission officers will pay the closest attention to
your GPA, class rank, college credit, AP courses and scores
on the SAT or ACT.
Participate in activities that require time and effort outside of
class.
Schedule Changes
Registration for classes is a serious process for all students. Once
students sign up for classes, they are committed. Based on spring
registration, some classes are not offered, others expanded, and
teachers appointed. Schedule changes are often impossible to
make. If a change is absolutely necessary, students may pick up a
form in guidance. Schedule changes are made only for the following reasons:
1. Seniors must add a course required for graduation.
2. Student already has credit for the course.
3. Student does not meet course prerequisites.
The only students who should visit guidance during schedule
pickup on July 26 or July 27 are students who are missing a period
on their schedules.

Reading Counts
One Book One School
The Reading Counts Challenge
Our One Book One School (OBOS) events this year were a blast! We faced our
fears in challenges inspired by FEAR FACTOR to see if we had what it takes to
compete at the PANIC party. And worked as a team to complete a schoolwide
scavenger hunt to experience Mickey’s struggle to find answers about the missing in Shelter.
At Crooms, all students have Scholastic Reading
Counts access and are encouraged to read any book
and take the corresponding quiz in the Reading
Counts program. The goal for every student is to
reach the 100 point level by the second semester.
There are prizes and awards for our top scorers
given each nine weeks.
Don’t be left out next year- Read the books, take the quizzes, join the party!
Didn’t have time to read these two great novels this year? Summer is a great
time to catch up on reading for pleasure! Create a list of must read books, sit
back in a comfy chair, hammock or on the beach, grab a nice cold glass of water
and read away!
And, while you’re at it, add the OBOS fall novel to your list to get a head start
on it now!
Coming Fall 2016 — One Book - One School
presents Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
Red Queen lets us peek inside Mare Barrow’s world. A world divided by
blood--those with common, Red blood serve the Silver- blooded elite, who
are gifted with superhuman abilities. Mare is a Red, scraping by as a thief
in a poor, rural village, until a twist of fate throws her in front of the Silver
court.
The king forces her to play the role of a lost Silver princess
and betroths her to one of his own sons. As Mare is drawn
further into the Silver world, she risks everything and uses
her new position to help the Scarlet Guard--a growing
Red rebellion--even as her heart tugs her in an impossible direction. One wrong move can lead to her death,
but in the dangerous game she plays, the only certainty is
betrayal. Read and find out.
Summer Reading Assignments
Every Crooms student is expected to complete a
summer reading assignment for English- due at the
beginning of school. Check out our website for the

Happy Reading!
Attendance Office News
Welcome Jamelia Jarrells, our new attendance secretary.
Medications
If your student needs to have either prescribed or over-thecounter medication given by school personnel during the school day, state law
and school board policy require that you and your physician provide written
authorization for administration of both prescription and over-the-counter
medication. These required forms can be obtained from the Attendance Office.
Bus Transportation
Make sure the address in Skyward is correct so that the SCPS Transportation
office uses the most recent address. Bus stops for Crooms are not placed at the
same location as stops for in-zone students but are placed to be central to all
the students in an area. Students may also experience longer bus rides due to
the greater distances involved. Crooms does not create the bus routes nor do we
have the authority to make changes in assigned bus stops. To request the change
of a school bus stop, you must complete the Transportation Request Form
which can be found on the Crooms website and return it to the front office. The
request will then be reviewed by a member of the SCPS Transportation Routing
Department and you will be contacted by them as to its approval.
