Eagle Pride Alert! This week, 3 members of the the Como-Pickton FCCLA traveled to the National FCCLA Leadership Conference in Nashville, TN. We are proud to announce that Chelsey Osborne and Logan Langley came home with silver medals. They completed a Chapter Service Project this year and presented their portfolio and speech for their work in providing tourniquets and training to members of the community and schools. Presley Cummins served as our chapter's volunteer at the conference. We are very proud of the hard work and dedication these Eagles showed on a national level. #EaglePride247

Eagle Pride Alert! We are proud to announce that our Como-Pickton CISD Board of Trustees has earned the distinction of being named the TREA School Board of the Year for the State of Texas. TREA (Texas Rural Education Association) is a statewide organization founded to improve advocacy for rural schools at the State Board of Education, the Texas State Legislature, and the U.S. Congress. They represent more than 400 rural school districts across the state, and among those, they chose our school district's board of trustees to represent the achievement and values indicative of such an honor.  What's even more of an honor, our board of trustees continue to push our district to excel in academics and extracurricular activities while maintaining zero I&S tax debt to the community.  Over the last several years, Como-Pickton CISD has become synonymous with success, and these outstanding board members are one of the underlying factors for it all.  Our Como-Pickton CISD Board of Trustees will now represent the state of Texas in the NREA (National Rural Education Association) search for their School Board of the Year.  Our Board Members are pictured in order from left to right:  Shiloh Childress, Cole Boseman, Jim Murray, DJ Carr, Brittney Smith, and Clif Carpenter, (Not Pictured - JJ Cummings) (We would also like to acknowledge the contributions of Mark Humphrey and Jessica Pegues were served on our board the last several years until this May.) If you are as proud of our incredible school board as we are, post your congratulatory comments below! #EaglePride247

Eagle Community! We are saddened to announce that after 33 years as an educator, Mr. Tim Butts has earned the privilege of retiring. Today he heard the last dismissal bell as an employee.
