Cody Weatherly awarded CFisd secondary Teacher of the year
CFisd Celebrates serving 1 Million Curbside Meals The CFISD nutrition services department celebrated serving its millionth curbside meal on June 30, more than three months after launching the free community service on March 16 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Curbside meals have been available to children 18 years and younger at 19 CFISD school locations. Each child is provided with breakfast and lunch. Children do not have to be present in the car, but adults must have some form of documentation for each child, including the student’s school ID, birth certificate, report card or attendance record. Curbside meals will continue Monday-Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. through August 21 at many Cy-Fair campuses. Visit bit.ly/2XzaQSO for site info and menus.

Bridgeland Junior Makes Over 200 Masks for Community
A new $65.9 million ISC is proposed for the 26-acre plot of land owned by CFISD adjacent to Cy-Fair High School, to provide office and meeting space. A new performing arts center is proposed for the same parcel of land to accommodate growth in band, orchestra, choir, dance, theater and fine arts programs. The new facility would seat about 1,500. The average high school theater seats 800, and the Berry Center’s theater seats 490. Julie Hinaman, CFISD Board Trustee, reports that about 180 of the district’s more than 1,600 annual performances take place at external venues due to lack of capacity.
Bridgeland High School junior Ruth Poole made more than 200 cotton masks for Cy-Fair community members amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Poole recognized a need for masks, especially among the elderly community. “I feel really good about being able to provide masks to those who need them,” Poole said. “Oftentimes, community service is more of a long-term project, but by doing this there was near-instant fulfillment of a need and I am proud to have contributed.”
