It’s Constitution Week

Last week and this week, our Cubs are learning about the U.S. Constitution and the important role it has played in shaping our nation. Our librarian even put together a special Constitution Week book display to give students another way to explore, read, and learn!

We love seeing our Cubs connect history with learning throughout the school! ❤️🤍💙

#TeamCISD remembers and honors this Patriot Day.

Twenty-five years ago, our nation was forever changed. Each September 11, our country observes Patriot Day, a national day of remembrance honoring the nearly 3,000 lives lost in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and recognizing the courage and sacrifice of first responders and all those who answered the call to serve.

Today, Clifton ISD joins communities across our nation in remembering those we lost, honoring those who served and reflecting on the courage, service and compassion shown in the days that followed.

As we teach the next generation the significance of September 11, may we continue to honor its legacy by caring for one another, serving others and remembering the importance of being great together.

🌟 Building Character, One Wednesday at a Time! 🌟

Our wonderful counselor, Mrs. Gloff, has begun teaching the CharacterStrong program during Specials each Wednesday. Students spent August learning about kindness—acting with understanding, generosity, and care.

This September, our focus is respect: seeing value in all people and things and treating them with care. We look forward to watching our students put these important character traits into action at school, at home, and throughout our community! 💚
