Como-Pickton Parents - We have a fire alarm scheduled this morning. In today's times, we wanted to make you aware that there is nothing to worry about. This morning is only a drill.

It is our understanding that someone screenshot a state released list of academically targeted poor performing schools and misinterpreted the list to be a list of schools in danger. If we hear differently, we will keep you informed. The rumor mill is a tough thing to defend against. As always, we thank you for your constant support of our schools.
Sincerely – Dr. Greg Bower, Superintendent

Como and Pickton Communities – A hoax threat has been circulating throughout the state and has targeted several schools. Ours is not one of them. The Hopkins County Sheriff’s Department provided deputies at all of the Hopkins County Schools to set folks’ minds at ease today and tomorrow and to provide an extra layer of security. As always, we strive to keep parents informed in the face of any danger or threat that we know of. This is not one of those times as there is no credible threat, but we felt that putting this statement out would ease some of our community members who are hearing about these false threats.

Back to School Registration is Open! It's time to register your child for the 2024/2025 school year.
All students who were enrolled at CP for the 2023/2024 school year have to be registered in Parent Portal every year and show proof of residency. Proof of residency is an electric bill, water bill, gas bill, rental or purchase agreement. Proof of residence can be emailed, faxed or brought to the campus secretary.
Parent Portal is also opened for new student enrollment. We need a birth certificate, social security card, shot records and proof of residence for new students. These items can also be emailed, faxed or brought to the office.

Upcoming sophomore, Kyler Gillis, was honored to be nominated as a delegate for the Congress of Future Medical Leaders which took place outside of Boston, MA! He spent three days making connections with like-minded youth who hope to make a difference in the medical field. The Congress consisted of listening to Nobel Prize-winning speakers, deans from some of the top medical schools in the country, and even a 15 year old student who is making groundbreaking discoveries with his research on skin cancer. Kyler said his favorite part of the Congress was watching a live rotator cuff surgery. The last night of the Congress, the delegates were sworn into the Society of Torch and Laurel, an honor society for high school students, and said the Hippocratic Oath led by Dean Mitchell of Georgetown University’s Medical School. Due to his attendance and participation at the Congress and his GPA, Kyler will be receiving the Award of Academic Excellence. He hopes to pursue a future in the medical field, and he can’t wait to attend next year’s Congress.
If you're as proud of him as we are, post your congratulatory comments below! #EaglePride247

Resilience isn't about ignoring our problems or tolerating injustice. It's recognizing that in any situation we have a choice over how we respond.
Our Jump Back Up July calendar is full of actions to help you respond wisely to whatever is happening around you. Please share it with others too.

The Como-Pickton CISD Board of Trustees has been named the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA) School Board of the Year for Region 8. TASA created the school board awards program in 1971 to recognize school boards whose dedication and ethical service have made a positive impact on the school children of Texas.
This year, the Como-Pickton CISD’s School Board has exemplified these traits and worked hard to ensure that the education of its community’s children remained its top priority even as the district overcame obstacles of rebuilding their school after a devastating tornado. Como-Pickton Board President, DJ Carr, noted that he was humbled by the honor. He praised the school district’s teachers, staff, and administrators for always keeping the children as their top priority. He voiced pride in working with such dedicated and passionate board members, and he thanked them for the countless hours of hard work they put into the district to make it the best for the Como and Pickton communities.
This isn’t the first time the Como-Pickton School Board has been honored. In 2021, they were named School Board of the Year for the State of Texas by the Texas Rural Educators Association. Their hard work over the last few years has established Como-Pickton CISD as one of the finest schools in the area and one in which their two communities can be proud.

Eagle Nation! Today marks the one year anniversary of the storm that hit our school and caused so much destruction. As we reflect on the impact it has had on our school, we want to express that not all of it has been negative. In fact, we have come away with so many blessings from the event that we pause to give our thanks to our incredible two communities who helped bring us through. So far, our damages have amounted to over $8,000,000 and we anticipate that rising to approximately $10,000,000 before the repairs are over. While the rebuilding process has been tough, we have replaced so many old and worn out parts of our school with new. We have been able to replace more than 40 air conditioning units. We were able to retile most of the Elementary, Junior High, and part of the high school. We had some roofs that were 25 years old or more replaced. You see the progress of the Field House and concession stand under construction, new weight room, new awnings, etc... The thing we are most pleased from all of this, though, has been your overwhelming support, help, trust, and confidence in us with the education of your children even in such challenging circumstances. For all of that, we want to say simply and humbly.... Thank you! We appreciate you much more than you will ever know! ... Sincerely and on behalf of our faculty, staff, and board..... Dr. Greg Bower

For our Athletes. We are going to cancel workouts today for the boys because we are without power this morning. We will wait a little bit before we make that decision for the girls because their workouts are a little later. We will keep everyone posted.
