Mr. Tim, our security guard, thought our 5th graders might like some mischief on April Fools. Kiva fraternity was having a fundraiser and we got to join in!
One of our favorite things is getting to join in on some campus fun! Thanks Mr. Tim and Kiva!





It’s been a busy semester. State Park, Zoo, CER smackdown, and working with clay!





It may look like we’re just wandering around outside, but really we’re looking for evidence of slow changes to Earth's surface! Outdoor learning is my favorite kind! #chooseabilene #sciencerocks



Did you know it rains on the moon Titan? Learn something new everyday!
Thanks to Mr. Barber, this planetarium experience was out of this world! How lucky are we to be one of 3 districts in Texas to have one?! #chooseabilene




Catching up on some thank yous and kudos!
At CFI we have had the IMMENSE pleasure to have Mrs. Johnson teach music this semester. She worked so hard to bring a fabulous festive show! #chooseabilene

Our last post of the year! We are all three so thankful for the year we’ve had. THANK YOU seems too small and yet just right. These kids have made our year so great! They made coming to school each day something to look forward to. We worked, encouraged, loved, problem solved and learned all together. We wish well to each of our CFI kids and their families. Happy summer CFI and do BIG things! We know you will. Go War Hawks!
Love you all,
class dismissed.
❤️Mrs. Varner, Ms. Gibbs, and Mrs. Cruse



Yet another CFI-McM mash up! Neena McLain’s Creative Dramatics students supported our CFI program this semester by directing students in fables told through a student made shadow puppet show. This is was so fun and we are so thankful for opportunities like these for our students.


Super proud of our War Hawks! At AISD we say “it’s the heart” these kids really are the heart of McM CFI. They cheered each other on tonight and we’re each others biggest support! These kids all ran hard! Evan Pleimann represented CFI by earning a bronze medal in the boys 100M. Congrats, dude! And BIG shout out to Ms. Gibbs for getting and keeping us organized.
No matter what place we got you’re number 1 in our hearts! Ala Cumba 🖤❤️
