COVID-19’s incubation time is 14 days with a median time of 4-5 days from exposure to symptom onset.
97% of persons with COVID-19 who develop symptoms will do so within 11.5 days of infection.


Due to the continued COVID-19 outbreak among our school age children, Crosbyton CISD will begin Thanksgiving break tomorrow, November 19th. The final day of remote instruction for all students is today Wednesday, November 18th. All remote assignments for November 16th - 18th must be completed before school resumes on November 30th. According to the Department of State Health Services Superintendent’s briefing held on November 16th, large family gatherings are the leading cause of the current spread of the virus. Please continue to follow all safety protocols during this extended Thanksgiving break. We are looking forward to seeing everyone back at school on November 30th.

Elementary parents and guardians,
Every year the ladies in the cafeteria make a fabulous Thanksgiving meal where parents can come sit, eat and fellowship with their son(s) and daughter(s). Just a reminder, due to COVID restrictions, this year no parents or guardians are allowed to eat with their student(s) at this time.
Thank you,
Rene Villegas
Elementary School Principal

Happy Veterans Day

It is with profound sadness that we announce that Crosbyton CISD will not be in a position to host our Veteran's Day Assembly this year.
It now becomes a personal mission for each of us to reach out to our veterans to let them know how much we appreciate them. We pray that each of you will do just that.
Thank you Veterans. While we will be apart this Veterans Day, we will hold you dear in our hearts as we give thanks for your service and sacrifice.


Parents Night for Seniors will be this Friday in between the Varsity games.

Chieftain Quote of the Day


Chieftain Nation,
Over the past several days we have seen an increase in COVID-19 positive cases in our community and secondary school. In response, the Crosbyton CISD custodial and maintenance staff has worked throughout the weekend to disinfect and deep clean our buildings. Our teachers and staff members will continue to require students to wear masks, and observe other measures to help prevent the spread of the virus during school hours.
We are asking that, as a community, you assist us in preventing the spread of this devastating virus. Please wear your mask in public places, and observe social distancing guidelines when you are with others outside of your immediate household. We also ask that when you have a student in your home that has been placed in quarantine that you keep them in your home as much as possible. If you allow these students to leave the house, and attend social gatherings with their peers you are placing others at risk of contracting the virus through close contact, and are defeating the purpose of the quarantine.
If the number of cases in our secondary school continues to rise at the current rate, we will have to consider closing the campus and placing the students in remote learning. We will use this as a last resort because we have learned through this semester that this is not a learning model that our students are successful with, and we fear they will regress academically. This will also cause all extracurricular activities to stop. This would include basketball for both the boys and girls, cross country, FFA, and band. Our students have put in a great deal of work into each of these activities, and we very much want them to be able to compete in the contests that they have been preparing for.
We will continue to follow the guidance from the Texas Education Agency, and the Department of State Health Services when we make decisions concerning COVID-19 cases at school, and we will do everything possible to mitigate the spread of the virus. We are asking you to join us in this effort to keep our students and community safe during these unprecedented times. By working together we can slow the spread of this virus, and allow our students to have a positive school experience.
Shawn Mason
Superintendent
