Mrs. Shilling's 6th-grade choir students went to Owasso High School and participated in the "Circle the State with Song" festival. In class, students auditioned and learned eight concert songs. Along with others who qualified from the northeast region of the state, our students spent the day working with Michael Shimp, the guest clinician. The CTSWS choir ended their experience performing a concert.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to walk across Africa? In Mrs. Jarrett's geography class, each student was assigned a different area to research and describe the different physical features of it in a presentation to their peers.

Claremore's technology program has been crazy busy, hosting a VEX tournament and a TSA conference these past two weeks. Last weekend there were 60 VEX teams, and this weekend over 400 students here to compete at the TSA Mini-Conference.
Claremore students competed well at both events, but Mr. Isenbart is most proud of the #CPSZEBRAPRIDE they demonstrated. Students came in early and stayed late the past three weeks preparing to make the competitions a success. Students made trophies, printed judges' packets, set up fields, helped organize and run both competitions.
The community support was unbelievable as well. Parents, advisors, teachers, former students, members of this community, as well as people from surrounding communities came to help—all a testament to the significant contributions the program and Mr. Isenbart have made in his tenure here.
Thank you to everyone for all the hours, sacrifices, positive attitudes, and the support everyone has gives to the Claremore TSA and Robotics programs.

We are constantly hearing wonderful stories of our public school teachers, who are changing lives and lifting their students. We want to hear how and why these Claremore Public School educators have been instrumental in your life or the lives of your children.
Before the month of love is over, let's show some of our public school teachers some love. Go to our Facebook page and share your #CPSZEBRAPRIDE in the comments, or send your story to jbrace@claremore.k12.ok.us, and we could highlight your story.
With CHS Basketball Senior Night coming up tomorrow night we have a special #TBT post for you today.
One hundred years ago, the Claremore boys basketball team took to the court for the very first time. The 1920 yearbook states that this was the first year the boys' team "tried" the sport. The story about the girls' team was vague about the first year they played, but in 1820 they won more games than the boys did that year.
So this happened yesterday...
I think all cap & gown orders should include a complementary pack of Kleenex for the parents.

You've probably learned or heard about DNA, but have you ever seen it? As you may know, DNA is present in every cell of all plants and animals and determines all genetic traits of the individual organism.
Mrs. Tietz's and Mrs. Simpson's class had guest speakers from the Noble Research Institute to help with this lesson. Each class extracted DNA from strawberries, put it in vials, and were able to take it home.
Now that's a "berry" fun way to learn about DNA!

Back in November, Jack Kissee Ford teamed up with Claremore Public Schools for the Ford Drive4URSchool program resulting in a $1500 donation. Thank you to the 75 teachers, parents, and community members who came to test drive a Ford and complete the survey. Kissee has committed to hosting another Drive4URSchool Spring 2021, at which time Kissee Ford hopes to have 300 people test drive so that they can donate the maximum of $6000 to CPS.
Here Steve Kissee and Lyle Johnson from Jack Kissee Ford present Mr. Frazier, CPS Superintendent, a check that will be divided between all six schools participating.

Dr. Jon Ramsey, Associate Professor of Agricultural Education at Oklahoma State University, spent some time at Claremore High School this week observing Ms. Jerryca Haller, student-teacher, teach her agriculture communications class. Students learned the six components of professional email correspondence.
Ms. Haller comes to us via Imperial, California. When asked why she wanted to teach ag, she shared that she would like to have the same impact on today's students that her ag teachers had on her as a high school student. They helped her develop an appreciation for everything agriculture does, not only for her local community but also for the state and the nation. Jerryca would like to help her students in the same way by showing them the importance of agriculture since we all need to eat.
Ms. Haller is paired with our seasoned AgEd teacher, Ms. Jessalyn Schrock. Ms. Schrock is in her seventh year at CHS. Among other successes, she is responsible for coaching two, state winning AgriScience Fair projects, a National 3-Star Chapter, and acquiring a Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education - Plant Science certification.
