Attention Crestwood Families:
Please read the attached holiday break letter from Superintendent Dr. Youssef Mosallam, reflecting on our year's journey and celebrating our significant growth.
Essential insights as we head into the holidays!
In the Crestwood District, not wide or vast,
The Grinch’s journey was quite a blast.
On the nineteenth of December, a day to remember,
The Grinch paid a visit to Kinloch, so tender.
Jill Marvaso, the principal, so clever and bright,
Transformed into Cindy-Lou Who, to the Grinch’s fright.
With a smile so warm, and eyes sparkling with glee,
She was set to change what the Grinch’s heart could be.
“Welcome, Mr. Grinch,” Cindy-Lou said with cheer,
“To Kinloch Elementary, we’re glad you’re here!
With letters from students, and banners in view,
We’ll show you the joy that can certainly ensue.”
Randy Brooks was there too, a helper so grand,
Assisting Cindy-Lou to take a firm stand.
The Who-kids, with pens, had written with glee,
Letters of warmth, for the Grinch to see.
Their handmade cards, so vibrant and bright,
Filled the halls with a magical light.
Teachers and staff, in a line so grand,
With their little Whos, hand in hand,
Shared songs and stories, in the candle’s glow,
Hoping their love would make the Grinch’s heart grow.
Now, every Who in the district knows,
Of the day the Grinch’s heart rose.
Thanks to Cindy-Lou, and all,
The Grinch’s heart grew three sizes that fall.
As he left Kinloch, his heart full of cheer,
The Grinch carried with him memories so dear.
In this last stop, where the Koalas play,
He’d found the true meaning of the holiday.
STUDENTS FOR THE CHILDREN OF GAZA CHARITY VOLLEYBALL MATCH + BAKE SALE
Last evening, Edsel Ford High School in Dearborn, MI, witnessed a remarkable gathering of students, educators, and community leaders for a heartening cause. The Charity Volleyball Match and Bake Sale, aimed at supporting the Palestinian Children Relief Fund, saw participation from Edsel Ford, Dearborn High, Fordson, and particularly Crestwood High Schools.
From 6 to 8 PM, the school echoed with cheers and support, not just for the teams playing but for a cause that reaches far beyond the borders of Dearborn. This event highlighted the unifying power of sports and community in supporting global humanitarian efforts.
The Crestwood community’s involvement was particularly noteworthy. District Superintendent Dr. Mosallam, embodying both leadership and sportsmanship, served as an enthusiastic line judge. His presence was a significant morale booster for everyone involved.
Adding to the spirit of the evening were Crestwood Teachers Sabah Hadous and Sharifa Bazzi, who joined in, exemplifying the commitment of educators to both their community and global causes. Alongside them, Trustee Billy Amen, Crestwood Alumni Commissioner David Knezek, and Councilman Dave Abdallah took to the court, demonstrating that their roles in the community extend well beyond their official capacities.
Congratulations to all the participants and organizers for creating such an unforgettable and impactful evening. Your dedication and efforts shine a light on the power of community and education in making a difference in the world.

Highview Elementary had a visitor, not so slim, not so tall. ‘Twas the Grinch, you see, making his holiday call! Mayor or Principal Linda Taleb, with a smile so bright, welcomed our green friend, to the children’s delight. In Highview ‘Whoville,’ where laughter rings clear, the Grinch found the joy he missed year after year.
Outside the school gates, he stood with pride, the staff and Secretary by his side. ‘Look at the Grinch!’ the children would cheer, ‘He’s much friendlier than he appears!’
But wait, there’s more, in this holiday lore, tomorrow at Hillcrest, excitement galore! The Grinch, on his quest for community cheer, will find Scout & Theo, his dog reindeers so dear. Under Cathy Mitera’s care, they bring joy everywhere.
So come one, come all, to see this sight, as the Grinch spreads joy, both day and night!
Crestwood High School's Success at the Michigan Thespian Festival
1386
Our students made us proud at the Michigan Thespian Festival. Under the guidance of our amazing Theatre Director, Cayla Kolbusz, 20 of our talented students participated in a weekend full of workshops, performances, and competitions alongside the best high school theatre programs in Michigan.
The highlight of this event was the extraordinary achievement of three of our students - Maysa Abouzenni, Chris Wright, and Fay Bazzi. They received the 'superior' rating for their performances, a recognition that speaks volumes about their talent, haro work, and dedication. This rating is not just a mark of excellence but a testament to the quality of theatre education and guidance provided at Crestwood.
Congratulations to all the students for their dedication and success. You’ve made us all very proud!
Happy Thanksgiving Crestwood Families!
