During Women In History Month, our #MondayMotivation comes from Rosa Parks, Civil Rights Activist & Teacher. Parks helped initiate the civil rights movement in the United States when she refused to give up her seat to a white man on a Montgomery, Alabama bus in 1955. Her actions inspired the leaders of the local Black community to organize the Montgomery Bus Boycott. 💬“I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.” #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Kate Bustamante - National Honor Society President "Leaving a legacy doesn't always mean something big and bold. When thinking of what type of mark I want to leave at CHS, I think of the small things. Picking up a dropped piece of paper, holding the door open for someone, a simple "hello," or just a smile to someone passing by, are the things that come to mind. I know these aren't crazy, extraordinary acts, but I like to think that they can make someone's day better, even if it's for just a second. After my time at CHS, I hope that others continue to demonstrate the same kindness that I have been shown through actions and words."

Jen Boydston - CHS StuCo President "What I love about Claremore Public Schools is the family atmosphere. No matter where I go, whether it be one of the elementary schools, the junior high, or high school - I feel so welcomed, and it’s just the zebra bond! Throughout my fourteen years of being a part of Claremore Public Schools, our little community has been supportive of one another through so many events. Ever since I was little, I have had such excellent teachers and administrators who were so loving and were amazing role models. I know that if I were to come back in a couple of years, they would be so excited and intrigued to hear about what I’ve done, and I would feel the same!"

The Power of Positive Self-talk Positive self-talk can promote future learning and successes; it can help you approach challenges with a more open and optimistic mindset. Positive self-talk isn’t about knowing all the answers or thinking you’re amazing; it’s simply about reframing how you view things and approaching life with the idea that you can tackle things – and even if it doesn’t go perfectly – you’ll learn from it for next time. Encouraging positive self-talk and a growth mindset creates an understanding that failure is only a temporary setback, and hard work brings improvement and success. Thank you to Kaci Warren, a counselor at WRJH for providing us our #WellnessWednesday talk for today. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

During Women In History Month, our #MondayMotivation comes from Marie Curie, Physicist & Chemist who reminds us to reach for progress not perfection. Curie is remembered for her discovery of radium and polonium and her vast contribution to finding cancer treatments. As the first of the Curie family legacy of five Nobel Prizes, she was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first and the only woman to win the Nobel Prize twice, and the only person to win the Nobel Prize in two scientific fields. She was the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris in 1906. 💭"Have no fear of perfection; you'll never reach it." #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Claremore has a rich heritage of politicians, writers, astronauts, artists - a wealth of education and experience in our past that pushes our present into the future. Each year the Will Rogers Museum hosts their annual Will Rogers Diorama Contest for 3rd-grade students to help create an active learning experience. It is a prime opportunity for the 3rd graders of Rogers County to learn more about the people who made Claremore famous and the legacy they left us. This year a Roosa Elementary student, Kade O’Dell won 1st Place and Claremont Elementary student, Kabrie won 3rd Place. Help us give them a standing ovation 👏👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 in the comments. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Kindergarten is learning about Dinosaurs! Mrs. Jones brought in a cast of a fossil Ichthyosaurus for students. This fossil cast was developed by Mrs. Jones's father to help the University of Utah preserve their fossils. The Ichthyosaurus is a marine reptile from the Jurassic Period. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

A sensory table is a great way for children to learn how to independently explore the world around them, problem-solve, develop creativity, and refine conversational skills. Here one of Claremont Elementary students spends some time at one of their sensory tables. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

𝐵𝓊𝒹, 𝒩𝑜𝓉 𝐵𝓊𝒹𝒹𝓎 by Christopher Paul Curtis. This book from the eyes of a ten-year-old orphan, an African-American boy during the 1930's Great Depression. The story tells how he struggles through life to survive and the search to find his father. The story introduces how the Great Depression affected society, "when one door closes, another one opens," the concept of kindness - how strangers show it, and that perseverance is a necessary human quality. Last month, the snow days gave these students a chance to apply those same themes to their own lives and create their own Hoovervilles for their novel project. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
