Thank You, C-FB ISD Educational Team & Volunteers

We have had an extremely successful school year filled with many achievements and accomplishments. The Board of Trustees and I thank you for your hard work and determination; that is why we hosted the first Innovation Celebration at the Historic Downtown Carrollton Square in mid-May. 





We wanted C-FB ISD team members to know how we much appreciate your commitment to the district’s goal of high achievement for all students. And, we wanted our volunteers to know how much we value the time that they give to our school district.  You are making this community a great place to work and live.

We had fun visiting with the C-FB ISD educational family and the business owners of downtown Carrollton.  We also had a great afternoon of entertainment, and we enjoyed the ice cream provided by our partner Blue Bell Ice Cream.  Our younger guests showed their artistic talents with sidewalk chalk.

Thank you to the following student performers and their directors:

• Ranchview Band
• Creekview Chevals
• Tom Landry Step Team
• R. L. Turner Show Choir
• Blalack Step Team
• Newman Smith Jazz Band

Students from R. L. Turner High School's METSA (Math, Engineering, Technology and Science Academy) came out to demonstrate their projects.

We thank our partners who helped with the event:

Thanks to the Downtown Carrollton businesses for supporting our event. 

Thank you, DART for providing transportation on the Green Line and the exciting information about transportation.



Thank you, Blue Bell Ice Cream for the delicious treats.

Journalist/historian Henry B. Adams was correct when he wrote: “A teacher affects eternity he can never tell, where his influence stops.”  At the heart of any effective public school system are classroom teachers. Teaching is the most valuable profession that an individual can chose.

Regardless of their roles or assignments, every staff member helps with student achievement. Without them, we could not meet the four strategic objectives that help us meet our goal of high student achievement of all students.

In C-FB ISD, volunteers assist us in many ways.  They support our schools by working in the libraries, in the classrooms, or on special projects.  In our secondary schools, our parents and family members run special booster organizations for our fine arts and athletic programs. 

Parents, family members and friends take an active role in PTA and PTSA along side our staff.  The business partners who come in to support our schools  as well as service clubs give our students such a boost academically and socially.

The Board of Trustees and I thank the C-FB ISD educational team and volunteers for a great 2010-2011 school year.  Thank you for joining us at our first Celebration in Downtown Carrollton.  We are in the process of planning next year's event.  We will have the details for you when you get back to school in August.
