Community-Minded: C-FB Students Care about Their Community

Watch Focus Points Video

Students in C-FB ISD are community-minded. I have said this before, but it bears repeating: Our students in C-FB ISD care deeply about the world around them. The next generation of leaders is caring, thoughtful and articulate. Rest assured – the students graduating from C-FB ISD schools are prepared to lead our nation and to tackle the challenges ahead. The students in C-FB ISD are making our future bright through their positive attitude, care, concern and empathy for others. I am so honored and proud to serve our students as their superintendent. Our students inspire me every day.

I want to share a story with you about a group of students who are giving of their time and energy to serve others. In C-FB ISD, we have a program called “Moving on Up”. The Moving on Up students have volunteered at the PTA’s Gently Used Book Sale. The C-FB Council PTAs Gently Used Book Sale requires many volunteers and volunteer hours to organize the thousands of items donated.

Barbara Morgan, the book sale chair shared: “The special contribution by the Moving on Up students has been to organize the hundreds of CDs, DVDs, and other media to make them sale-ready. This requires a lot of work. These students take pride in their work and are the major reason this section of the sale is so well-received by our customers."

Character Counts! In the Carrollton-Farmers Branch School District, we teach the character values of pride, cooperation, responsibility, respect, integrity, service, and citizenship. Our Moving on Up students are an excellent example of the culture of service that C-FB ISD students exhibit. Well done.
