A Message from the Principal, Dr. Martinez

Hello, Lobo Families!


I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with rest, relaxation, and time with loved ones. As we head into the final three weeks of the semester, we’re reaching out for your support in helping our Lobos finish strong.


The idea of finishing strong comes from the world of running. The final stretch of a race is often the hardest, so runners train to ensure they have the energy and mindset to push even harder at the end than at the beginning. Our Lobos are in that final stretch right now—they can see the end of the semester, and while it may be tempting to slow down or coast, this is exactly when their effort matters most.


Whether it’s putting in extra time on a project or showing up each morning despite the colder weather, these last few weeks are crucial. Your encouragement at home can make a tremendous difference, and we truly appreciate your partnership in helping our students stay focused and finish strong.


Wishing all of you a great three weeks of classes before winter break begins!


Sincerely,

CFISD District Updates CFISD District Updates

What is CCMR?


College, Career, & Military Readiness (CCMR) equips students with the essential skills and knowledge needed for life beyond high school, whether they choose higher education, a career, or military service. Through a variety of resources, curriculum, and activities, CCMR ensures students are well-prepared for their next steps. Engaging in collegiate-level work during high school boosts their chances of college enrollment and degree attainment, leading to higher lifetime earnings. Additionally, earning college credits in high school can significantly reduce tuition costs, making higher education more accessible.


What does it mean to be College, Career, or Military Ready?

  • College Ready: Graduates will not have to take remedial classes in college, thus saving time and money!
  • Career Ready: Graduates have the essential skills to find, acquire, maintain, and grow within a career. They can also enroll in additional postsecondary training without the need for remediation.
  • Military Ready: Graduates have committed to enlistment with the United States military. Proof of enlistment (DD Form 4) must be turned into the campus.


What are the benefits to students who are CCMR Ready?

Students with CCMR Ready status may...

  • SAVE TIME & MONEY
    Graduates will not have to take remedial classes in college!
  • FIND, ACQUIRE, MAINTAIN & GROW WITHIN A CAREER
    Students have the essential skills to embark on a meaningful career after graduation. Career ready graduates can also enroll in additional postsecondary training without the need for remediation.
  • CHOOSE TO ENLIST IN THE MILITARY
    Graduates are prepared if they choose to commit to enlistment with the United States military.

HAC and Grades

Regularly checking your student's grades is a simple yet powerful way to stay involved in their education. It helps you catch potential issues early, celebrate their successes, and have meaningful conversations about their progress. By viewing your student's grades in HAC to stay informed, you can provide the support they need to succeed and help them develop important habits for future academic success.

Take Advantage of Redo and Retest Opportunities

Each marking period, students have valuable opportunities to strengthen their understanding and improve their grades through redo and retest options. These opportunities are available in all three grading categories: Checking for Understanding, Relevant Application, and Summative Assessments.

Redo and retest opportunities are designed to support learning — not just to raise a grade, but to ensure mastery of key concepts and skills. When students take the time to review feedback, make corrections, and demonstrate growth, they build stronger academic habits and deeper understanding.



Students should check with their teachers for the specific process and deadlines for redos and retests in each class. Taking initiative and following through on these opportunities can make a meaningful difference in both learning and achievement.

State of Texas- End of Course (EOC)

In order to graduate from high school, the State of Texas requires students to pass five End of Course (EOC) exams: English I, English II, Algebra I, Biology, and U.S. History.

Students who have not yet met the passing standard on one or more of these tests will have another opportunity this December to meet this graduation requirement.

December EOC Testing Dates:

  • Tuesday, December 2: English I

  • Wednesday, December 3: English II

  • Thursday, December 4: Algebra I and U.S. History

  • Tuesday, December 9: Biology



Parents can view their child’s EOC results through Home Access to see which tests their student has passed and which they may need to retake. Specific information will be sent out to testers as we get closer to December.

Spring 2026 Schedules

Counselors will continue to work on schedule changes throughout the holiday break. When students return to school on Tuesday, January 6th, they will report to their Fall 1st period class to receive a new copy of their schedule.


Due to leveling of classes, semester electives, and master schedule changes, many students may have changes to their schedules. Please keep in mind that the counselors have worked very hard to keep the changes to a minimum, therefore; schedule change requests will not be allowed. Thank you for understanding.

CFISD Virtual Pathways 2026-2027 School Year- Application Deadline Approaching

ONLINE LEARNING, REDEFINED.

Priority Applications are due 12/18/2026.


CFISD Virtual Pathways provides online learning options that stand out from the rest. So many online programs provide a one-size-fits all, impersonal approach that leaves students isolated and on-their-own. We believe that virtual education should prioritize relationships, engagement, and responsiveness.

Our program is fundamentally different because we focus on creating a supportive, engaging, and responsive academic community.


CFISD will have three virtual options:


1. Virtual Academy

Full-time, dedicated online learning experience.

2. Flex Learning

Students spend most of their day on campus for face-to-face instruction while choosing up to two courses to take online, allowing them to come in up to two periods late or leave up to two periods early each day.

3. Supplemental Courses

Students take up to two additional courses outside of their regular school day to get ahead, make up a credit, or make room for an elective.


For more information, visit virtual.cfisd.net or email VirtualPathways@cfisd.net.
