A big change is on the horizon for Crosby ISD as the district switches to a four-day school week. Although students head back to class today, the change doesn't begin until September.
However, the four-day change doesn't actually start this week. Instead, it starts in September.
Each school day will be 20 to 25 minutes longer with the new schedule change. Crosby Middle School and Crosby High School now start at 7:10 a.m. The elementary campuses start at 8 a.m. "This summer's hiring season, we have seen a significant improvement in hiring certified teachers. This school year we have improved our fill rate with certified teachers by 70%," Superintendent Paula Patterson said.
