At 8:45am we begin our morning announcements and our staff members on car rider duty need to go inside to report to their first-period classes. After this time, the adult will need to park their car and come inside to sign in their child.

Walkers Walkers

zoom_out_map

Parents of students who walk to or from school: please make a note of rainy day dismissal routines.

Our walking pathway holds a lot of water and gets very muddy. Your child will get wet and muddy if dismissed as a walker.

  • If it has been raining and you prefer that your child not walk home, you should submit a change of transportation BEFORE 3:15 pm. This can be a signed note or, if the day has already begun and you cannot get a signed note to us; you can attach your ID to an email to yeager@cfisd.net. Please note that the message must be received no later than 3:15pm of the same day that you are making the change of transportation for your child to be a car rider.

  • If it is actively raining, we will make a decision at 3:15 pm to cancel walkers and automatically change all our walkers to car riders. Once we make the decision at 3:15 pm, we will not be able to change it back, even if it stops raining. In the event that walkers are canceled, a School Messenger notification will be sent so you will be aware of the change.

We appreciate your cooperation on this matter.
