Welcome New C-FB Staff Members

Urgent Message: Today’s message is to our new educators and staff members in C-FB ISD. However, even if you are not a new staff member, feel free to read on and “listen in” to my message of gratitude and encouragement.


Welcome new C-FB team members! Thank you for choosing the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District. You know in many ways a successful school district is like a successful college football program, in that our success depends on our personnel and on the quality of our new recruiting class – that’s you. I am extremely excited to say that we have assembled the best recruiting class ever. Our administrators and principals tell me repeatedly that our new employees are the best they have ever seen. They chose well.

However, you need more than great personnel to have a successful season. You need focus.. a goal. We have that ingredient in C-FB because we share one goal: High Achievement for All Students. Our goal is your charge – the charge of the whole C-FB Team – educate all students at high levels.

All great programs focus on the practice of continuous improvement. The secret to success is practice, practice, practice! It is the difference between average performers and great performers. There is no substitute for practice. As educators, we must continually improve our instructional practice to help our students achieve at the highest levels.

These are the ingredients to a great district: great personnel and great recruiting class, goal focus, and continuous improvement. All successful organizations share these ingredients. And in C-FB, we have these ingredients. We have the best staff – Team C-FB. We have one goal – high achievement for all students. And, make continuous improvement a habit.

To you, our new employees: Welcome to a great school district, and thank you for choosing C-FB. Now go forth and accomplish our goal of High Achievement for all Students.
