Siblings of current students and CEC staff with students will have one-week priority consideration before we process all other enrollments. All currently enrolled students, except for graduating seniors will automatically be reenrolled for the 2023-24 school year. You DO NOT need to complete a new application! Students currently enrolled in 8th grade for the 2022-23 school year at McMurry Middle School do not need to enroll in the CECFC HS. They will receive a separate email, with additional instructions on what steps are needed to complete the transition into CECFC HS.

CEC PARENT RESOURCE GROUP AND SAC | |
Everyone is welcome!
No volunteering, no commitment.
Our Parent Resource Group meetings are friendly and casual, a place for parents to meet other CEC families and share stories,
ask questions, and find information.
Any questions brought up are placed as an agenda item for our SAC (School Accountability Committee) meetings with CEC Leadership.
Research shows that when parents are involved in their children's education, they benefit emotionally, socially, and academically.
