Dear CFISD community,
COVID-19 continues to be an unprecedented and very fluid event for our country as evidenced by President Trump’s declaration of a National Emergency and Governor Abbott’s declaration of a State of Disaster for all Texas counties. I attended a meeting earlier today with Harris County Public Health, Harris County Judge Hidalgo, and the Office of Emergency Management and have been in communication with the Commissioner of Education and government health officials. This afternoon I met with our district administrative team, and we are all committed to providing resources for our students and staff during the CFISD closure period.

· Superintendent’s Fun Run & Festival:
o The event is cancelled, and t-shirts will be distributed at a later date. This is one of my favorite events every year because of you. Let’s celebrate the scholarships that will still be awarded because of donations, registrations and business sponsorships. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event.
· Extended Learning Resources:
o Extended learning resources will be available next week for students on the district website.
· Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
o Beginning Monday, March 16
§ An FAQ will be posted on the district website (www.cfisd.net) and updated as we receive additional information on the COVID-19 situation and its impact to our CFISD families.
The district website will continue to be updated with information for staff and students, and I will provide regular communication with you through email.
Please stay safe,
Superintendent of Schools
