🦅 Mrs. Walden’s Message to Our Community

At CPCISD, students don’t just get an education—they get the Best Choice in academics, extracurriculars, and a team of dedicated staff who truly care about their success.

We prepare students to soar through strong academics, innovative programs, and caring teachers who go the extra mile. Whether it’s in the classroom, on the field, or on the stage, our Eagles are learning, leading, and achieving more every day.

We are deeply grateful to the Como and Pickton communities for your continued support in making our district the best in Hopkins County!

Lunch / Socioeconomic Forms

Como-Pickton CISD is required to collect the socioeconomic status of each student as part of state and federal accountability and funding requirements (TEC §39 and ESEA §§1111, 1113, and 1116).
This information is confidential and not shared with outside agencies.

These forms are essential in determining our eligibility for Title I and State Compensatory Education funding, which directly benefits students through:

Tutoring and academic support

Classroom technology

Additional teaching staff

Professional development for teachers

These forms also determine our accountability grouping with other districts across the state and help our High School students with Dual Credit Course funding and many other things associated with Higher Education.
If you have not yet completed and returned this form, please do so when it comes home again. Your participation directly supports your child’s school!
