Citizens For Balance and Integrity our School District (CFBISD)

The purpose of CFBISD Network is to bring balance and greater Integrity to our school district, Carrollton Farmers Branch Independent School District. One Dictionary defines balance as “a state in which various parts form a satisfying and harmonious whole and nothing is out of proportion or unduly emphasized at the expense of the rest.” Balance in a school district requires that all parties: parents, teachers, students, administrators, and others have an opportunity to influence the governance of the school district.
