Our Zebra Elementaries had their own Election Day!
Our sites turned their hallways into mini polling stations! Students registered with their own voter cards and cast votes on important topics like their favorite football team, top candy choice, and a school-wide debates!
The students had a fantastic time learning about the voting process in a fun, hands-on way!🦓

Claremore NJROTC Drone Teams are on FIRE!
🔥 Team 2 dominated the Willard (Missouri) Navy JROTC Rolling Thunder drone competition on 1 November against 13 varsity teams.
They win the overall championship and trophies in relay race, lap race, and drone soccer. They brought home the traveling championship “Rolling Thunder” trophy! Even more impressive is how young this team is, made up of one sophomore and three freshmen!
🤯 Team 1 also impressed, placing 3rd overall and earning trophies in soccer, lap race, and relay race.
Huge congrats to all our cadets! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
Science can be delicious! 🤤 Mrs. Simmonds' students experimented with heat transfer methods to toast marshmallows. They use conduction on a hot plate, convection with a popcorn popper, and radiation with a heat lamp.
Who knew learning could be so sweet? 🔥🍢

Each student got creative by designing their very own potato athlete and crafting a unique athlete profile for each one. From spud sprinters to tater tumblers, these Potato Olympians were ready for gold! 🥔🏅👟 #CPSZebraPride
💙 The announcement may be late, but time has just given us time to fall even more in love! Mrs. Sarah Litterell, CHS math teacher, and her husband welcome their second child, a son, Carson Keith, in August. In addition to his parents, Carson was welcomed home by his big sister, Adley.
Welcome to the herd, Carson!
At Catalayah Elementary, Mrs. Ward's 1st graders got a taste of leadership by listening to "If I Ran for President" and dreaming big! Each student wrote about what they would do if they were president, and their ideas were full of heart and creativity.✨ Future leaders in the making! #CPSZebraPride
🗳️ Today, our Roosa Elementary students are stepping into the voting booth! 🗳️
As part of our commitment to teaching the importance of civic engagement, our young citizens are casting their votes in the Roosa Election, choosing between Sweet Treats and Salty Treats. After voting, each student proudly receives a "Future Voter" sticker, symbolizing their role in shaping our community.
While the stakes may not be as high as today's national election, this activity serves as a meaningful introduction to the democratic process. By participating, our students learn that every voice matters and that they have the power to make a difference.
Let's celebrate our future voters and the bright future they're helping to build!
What's your vote... 🍬 SWEET or 🧂 SALTY snacks?
📚 Celebrating Reading with CHS NHS & Chick-fil-A! 📚 A big thank you to Claremore High School NHS and Chick-fil-A for partnering to bring new books to our elementary students! Our NHS students had a blast visiting classrooms, sharing their love for reading, and handing out books to our younger Zebras. 📖✨ Moments like these are so powerful—our elementary students look up to their high school mentors, making this a perfect opportunity to inspire a love of reading. Seeing big kids who are passionate about books helps our youngest readers see the magic in every story! Thank you, CHS NHS and Chick-fil-A, for making such a positive impact! 💙🐾 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
🗳️ Today is Election Day! 🗳️ As we teach our students the importance of patriotism, respect, and civic responsibility, we also recognize the power of leading by example. Voting is a meaningful way to show our commitment to these values and our community. By casting a vote, we demonstrate to the next generation that every voice matters and that each of us has a role in shaping our future. Let’s inspire our students by exercising our rights with pride and purpose. Voting is not only our right—it is our power. And an educated vote is the most powerful vote. Exercise your right, make your voice heard, and do your part for our democracy. Polls are open from 7AM - 7 PM today.
Our students love their library time, and here’s another reason why! Claremont recently had our first two winners in the library! Scattered throughout the library are ‘You Are a Winner’ books. Plenty are in all library areas, but the catch is that students don't know they have picked a winner until you scan it at checkout. Students who check out these books receive a prize! Once the book is returned, another winning book is selected, ready for the next lucky student to find. Keep reading for at least 20 minutes a day. Students who read always win even f it's not a prize. #cpszebrapride

🌟 Catalayah Celebrates Character Every Day! 🌟
At our school, every student can be recognized with a "Character Counts" certificate for showing positive character traits! Any adult in the building can award one when they notice a student making a difference by following life principles that guide us to become better people. When a student receives a certificate, their teacher celebrates them immediately, and then the recognition continues in the morning at Rise and Shine! The students' names are called, they stand tall, and the school gives them two power claps in support! 🎉 One lucky student is randomly chosen each day, earning a special prize donated by our wonderful local businesses. Their photo is proudly posted on our “Character Counts” wall alongside every certificate earned throughout the year – a space students love visiting to find their names! This year, we've ensured character counts everywhere, adding “Cafeteria Character Counts” and recognizing students on the bus, too! 🚌🍎
We’re proud to honor students every day for the positive choices that lift our school community!

We understand that parents/guardians may want to pick up their children through the proper channels. If you choose to do so, this will be an excused absence.
However, we do not want to send children home without supervision; therefore, our buses will not run early. If the weather changes and we must delay the buses, we will notify you as soon as possible through the CPS Mobile App and the Stopfinder App.
