Our Foundation honors 10% of the graduating senior class each year based on nominations from teachers, applications submitted by the nominees and a select committee that grades each application anonymously. These students were nominated because their teachers saw something special in each one of them and they were selected based on character, participation, overall impression and they exemplify characteristics of the graduate profile developed by CMISD which include problem solving, future readiness, integrity, grit, communication skills, compassion and leadership.
