Incorporating Science through the Circus

Senses at the Circus

Ms. Crenshaw and Ms. McCain's class took learning about senses to another level.  Who would ever thought that students could learn about senses by using a circus theme learning environment.  Students were given the opportunity to investigate, explore, create, and have fun while learning about science.   They were able to facilitate all five areas of the senses.

Is your student college ready?

For the best chance of making your visions of success a reality, preparing for your student's future has to start much earlier than graduation. GISD believes that "college and career readiness" begins in prekindergarten and encompasses a strong academic foundation including all aspects of the GISD Portrait of a Graduate. At Cisneros we have a College Day every Tuesday to let our students know that going to college is an important goal in life.
