progress from 2015 to 2016; 

• Index 3: Closing Performance Gaps - Measures the progress of students 

in the economically disadvantaged student group along with the two 

lowest-performing student groups from the previous year; and 

• Index 4: Postsecondary Readiness - Measures how many students 

passed the STAAR at the final recommended standard on two or more 

tests (all levels) and graduation rate, graduation diploma plan and a 

postsecondary component (high schools only). 

“High expectations, believing all students can be successful, and doing 

whatever it takes to help student achieve is the attitude you find at all of 

our campuses,” said Dr. Linda Macias, CFISD associate superintendent of 

curriculum & instruction and accountability. “Our campus administrators, 

teachers and district team are committed to providing our students with 

quality instruction, monitoring their success and offering support when 

needed. Our schools have once again achieved the ‘Met Standard’ rating 

and reached the target for all four indices that are a part of the state 

accountability system. I’m very proud of the work they do.” 


CFISD CAMPUSES EARN 

2017 DISTINCTION DESIGNATIONS 

The Texas Education Agency (TEA) released its annual distinction 

designations for campuses earning the accountability rating of Met 

Standard. Campuses that receive an accountability rating of Met Standard 

are eligible to earn distinction designations, which are awarded for 

achievement and progress in the following areas: 

Academic Achievement in English Language Arts/Reading; 

Academic Achievement in Mathematics; 

Academic Achievement in Science; 

Academic Achievement in Social Studies; 

Top 25%: Student Progress; 

Top 25%: Closing Performance Gaps and Postsecondary Readiness. 

Each campus is assigned to a unique comparison group made up of 

Texas schools that are most similar to it. The groups are determined on 

grade levels served, size, percentage of students who are economically 

disadvantaged, mobility rate. It also includes the percentage of English 

language learners, students receiving special education services and 

students enrolled in an Early College High School program. 

A campus earns a distinction designation if it is in the top quartile of its 

comparison group for Top 25% student progress and Top 25% closing 

performance gaps and at least 33 percent (high schools) and 50 percent 

(elementary and middle schools) of the indicators used to award the 

distinction in the other areas. 

Campuses earning one or more of these distinction designations met 

rigorous criteria to earn the highest level of recognition in the state 

accountability system. 

Eight CFISD campuses earned all possible distinction designations 

for their respective campus levels: Hancock, Holbrook, Lee, Pope and 

Sampson elementary schools; Arnold Middle School and Cypress Park and 

Langham Creek high schools. 

“Our commissioner of education has previously shared that earning one 

or more Distinction Designations is noteworthy and should be a source 

of pride,” said Dr. Linda Macias, CFISD associate superintendent of 

curriculum & instruction and accountability. “We are certainly proud of 

all of our campuses that earned distinction designations and recognize 

the commitment of our administrators, teachers and our community to 

providing our students with a quality education. Striving for excellence 

is a common thread among our campuses and earning all the Distinction 

Designations available to a campus is a tremendous accomplishment.”

What Can a Girl Scout Do? Let’s rephrase that question with…what CAN’T 

a Girl Scout do? 

Free Estimates 

While some people still think of Girl Scouts as just cookies, campfires and 

friendship bracelets, Girl Scouts is so much more! They are big thinkers, 

ground-breakers and role models. They design robots, improve their 

communities - and yes, Girl Scouts sell the best cookies on the planet! 

A Girl Scout is a G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader). Girl 

Scouts teaches girls to empower themselves by engaging in girl-led, 

collaborative and hands-on experiences. Guided by supportive adults 

who help them pursue their goals, girls participate in a variety of fun and 

challenging activities. 

Girl Scouts is the largest leadership organization for girls. To join, girls 

must be in grades kindergarten-12 th grade. The annual membership is $25 

and financial assistance is available, if needed.

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT 

For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found 

in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant 

in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting 

helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership 

skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives. 

The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities 

that allow them to: 

• Try new things 

• Provide service to others 

• Build self-confidence • Reinforce ethical standards 

Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as 

individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility

EXCITING FALL AT THE

Fall Exhibits Open September 30 th 

This fall, the Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts is thrilled to present an 

exhibition titled Anat Ronen: Urban Legend. After coming to the U.S. 

from Israel in 2007, Anat Ronen embarked on a new career in art and has 

become one of the most exciting and highly regarded street artists of our 

day-though she has no formal training in art. Typically she works on largescale 

projects that can reach over 30 feet tall, with more than 500 pieces 

in public spaces including highways, bridges, buildings, churches and 

schools. 

Also this fall, the museum will present Contemporary Quilt Art from the 

International Quilt Festival Collection. For more than three decades, 

Karey Bresenhan, founder of the Houston International Quilt Festival and 

Nancy O’Bryant Puentes have been purchasing studio art quilts for their 

corporate collection. For the first time ever, part of this collection has been 

assembled into a nationally-touring exhibition of 25 quilts and the Pearl is 

delighted to be one of the stops on that tour. 

Fall exhibits will open Saturday, September 30 th . The Pearl Fincher 

Museum of Fine Arts is open from 10 AM-5 PM Tuesday through Saturday. 

Admission is free, but a suggested donation of $5 per adult is appreciated.

NEW LAWS IN 

TEXAS EFFECTIVE 

IN 2017 

The Texas legislature met from 

January through May and passed 

several new laws as well as 

changed laws that will go into 

effect in 2017. They range from 

texting while driving, drones, to 

swords, to protecting good Samaritans. Below are a few laws that are 

effective immediately or going into effective September 1 st . 

Texting While Driving 

Effective September 1 st , there will be a statewide band on texting 

while driving. The bill bans drivers from texting while a vehicle is 

moving, making it a misdemeanor offense punishable by a fine ranging 

from $25 to $99, with penalties up to $200 for repeat offenders. The 

law allows drivers to use their phones for GPS and would not allow 

violators to be fined under both state law and local ordinances. 

People Allowed to Carry Swords 

People can carry bowie knives, swords, daggers and spears in public 

under a law that goes into effect September 1 st . Current law allows 

people to carry knives no more than 5.5 inches long. While it will be 

okay to carry the larger weapons in public, it is illegal to take into 

bars, schools, colleges, churches, sporting events and numerous other 

facilities. 

Amnesty for Sex Assault Witnesses 

Students who witness and report a sexual assault while they are 

involved in illegal activity, such as drinking, would be given amnesty. 

Recording Higher Ed Sex Assaults Electronically 

Effective immediately, this law will allow college employees and 

students to submit electronic and anonymous reports of sexual 

assaults to their institutions. 

Ridesharing Returns 

Last year some ridesharing companies, like Uber and Lyft, were 

mandated to fingerprint drivers before they could pick up customers 

in their cities. Effective immediately, this new law, bans cities from 

enforcing similar measures on these types of ridesharing companies. 

28 

Cheaper to Carry a Gun 

Effective September 1 st the fees for carrying a gun in Texas are now 

cheaper under Senate Bill 16. The law lowers fees for a first-time 

license to carry a handgun from $140 to $40 and the renewal fee is also 

reduced from $70 to $40. 

Be Careful Where You Fly your Drone 

Effective September 1 st the state has banned unmanned aircraft, like 

drones, over correctional and United States Immigration, Customs 

Enforcement detention facilities and large sports venues. Exceptions 

include unmanned aircraft authorized by a law enforcement agency or 

with the permission of the operator of the sports venue. 

David’s Law 

The new state law on cyber bullying makes it a Class A misdemeanor to 

harass or cyberbully someone under age of 18 through text messages, 

social media, websites or other means with the intent to cause them to 

commit suicide or harm to themselves. 

Voter ID changes 

If don’t have a valid photo id, voters will be able to cast their ballots if 

they show some other documentation with their name and home address 

(Bank statement or Utility bill). Voters would also need to sign an affidavit 

saying there is a good reason they don’t have a valid photo ID. 

No More Straight-Ticket Voting 

Straight ticket voting is out! Voters will no longer be allowed to cast 

their ballot for an entire slate of Republican or Democratic candidates. 

You will now have to vote for each candidate individually. 

Lottery Winners 

Effective September 1 st . Individuals who win prizes of at least $1 

million can choose to remain anonymous and prohibit the release of 

all personal information to the public. 

Civil Protections for Good Samaritans 

Effective September 1 st a new law protects good Samaritans from 

civil lawsuits if they break in a vehicle if they have reason to belief the 

person is in imminent harm, has first notified 911, uses appropriate 

amount of force and remains with the individual in a safe location. This 

replaces current law that leaves good Samaritan open to civil suits. 

No More Suspensions for Young Students 

Effective immediately. Schools can no longer suspend students below 

third grade. Instead public schools need to discipline children in a way 

that enforces positive behavior.

HEALTHY COWBOY CAVIAR 

This healthy cowboy caviar recipe (also known as Texas 

caviar) is made with all-natural ingredients! Serve it as a dip, 

salsa or salad Recipe yields a lot of “caviar,” about 8 cups. 

Ingredients 

2 (14-ounce) cans black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained, 

or 3 cups cooked black-eyed peas 

1 (14-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained, 

or 1 ½ cups cooked black beans 

1 ½ cups fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears of corn), 

or 1 (14-ounce) can corn, drained 

1 ½ cups chopped tomatoes (I used about 4 Roma 

tomatoes, 

about ¾ pound) 

1 medium green, red, orange and yellow bell pepper 

¾ cup chopped red onion (about ½ small red onion) 

½ cup chopped cilantro, leaves and stems 

1 to 2 jalapeños, ribs removed, seeded and finely 

chopped 

1 avocado (optional) 

Italian dressing 

1/3 cup olive oil 

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar or lime juice 

2 medium cloves garlic, pressed or minced1 

to 1 ½ teaspoons salt, to taste 

1 teaspoon dried oregano 

½ teaspoon dried basil 

1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey 

1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes 

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste 

Instructions 

In a large serving bowl, combine the drained black-eyed peas, black 

beans, corn, chopped tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, cilantro and 

jalapeño. If you’ll be including avocado, wait to dice it until you’re 

ready to serve the dip, so it doesn’t turn brown in the meantime. 

In a cup, whisk together the dressing ingredients until emulsified. 

Drizzle the dressing over the serving bowl and toss until well mixed. 

Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. For best flavor, let 

the mixture marinate for at least 20 minutes before serving. If you’re 

adding avocado, mix it in just before serving.
