March Newsletter
A Note from the Principal
There are so many wonderful things happening at Francone! Here are some highlights from the recent weeks:
- We received an attendance award from CFISD for increasing our daily attendance compared to the 2017-2018 school year. Students with perfect attendance for the school year will be entered into a drawing to win a new bicycle. You may have seen the bikes on display in our hallways!
- We had hundreds of families attend our school events during the month of February. Our K.I.S.S. (Kids Invite Someone Special) Book Fair event and our Father/Daughter Dance both had great turnouts. We appreciate your involvement!
- We celebrated Black History Month by displaying 4th Grade's biography projects throughout the school. Students admired these projects (and learned from them!) each day on their walk to and from large group. 5th Graders were also selected to share facts about African American history on the morning announcements.
- Our Francone Hoopers club performed at Rice University. They did an outstanding job and are set to perform on Saturday March 2nd at the Superintendent's Fun Run at 9:40 AM. If you are in the area, be sure to catch their act!

Also, as you may know, the CFISD school board recently voted to approve school boundary changes for Francone. As of now, those families who will be impacted have already received notification. If you are a family impacted by the rezoning, please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions. We are confident that this will be a smooth transition for everyone.
