We spent an amazing morning with George Couros, a nationally-known (strike that... internationally-known) educational speaker and author who took time to pour insight and motivation into the CPCISD staff. We were thankful to spend the morning with you; and please know, your ideas and your words will infuse our days as we start this GREAT year!
P.S. Billy Madison changed my life, too! #georgecouros.ca

A CareFlight helicopter landed on the Como-Pickton CISD football field this afternoon in response to a non-school-related emergency. We want to assure our families and community that all CPCISD students, faculty, and staff are safe.
