March is the month set aside at CCS to study all about the great state of Texas. If you have something that represents our state, this is the time to send it to school on your child's show and tell day. I am especially proud to be a Texan, because just a few years ago the Texas legislature voted to add the phrase "one state under God" to the Texas pledge. We will be learning the pledge as well as the Texas Anthem all during the month. The Texas Unit will continue until the very last school day of March.
