Week of September 30

Celebrate Excellence

Our Boys Cross Country team took 1st t the Pine Tree
Invitational last week.  Congratulations!!!

The first 6 weeks ended on Friday, September 27, and the 2nd 6 weeks begins on Tuesday, October 1.  On Monday, September 30, the CISD teachers and staff will have a professional development day where they will analyze the work of your children on the 1st 6 Weeks Formative Assessments.  They will use the data and information gained to create targeted interventions to help your child meet their academic growth goals (also known as +10 goals).

We are so proud of the students and teachers for their hard work in the first 6 weeks.  On every campus we saw hard work, great behavior, and fantastic effort from all staff and students. If you have questions about your child's performance, please contact your child's teachers or campus principal.


#BeTheLIGHT

Primary students painted a rock
in their own unique style and placed
it in the school's rock garden.

Our motto for 2019-2020 is "Be the LIGHT".  In order to lead all students to discover their excellence, CISD staff commit to show them the way and be the light for them to see how awesome they are.  The fifth and final letter in our LIGHT acronym, T, stands for Trust and Teamwork, and I would like to share what it means to us.

No organization can reach its goals without trust and teamwork.  That means that we commit to build a trusting relationship with staff, students, and parents so that together we can ensure that every student succeeds this year.  In order to develop trust and teamwork, we must first extend trust to other through selfless service and a smile.  Also, we commit to be able to listen to concerns as they arise and learn from difficult times to make Carthage ISD the premier district for all students, all staff, and all parents.
