Native American Club made cornhusk dolls. These dolls have been made by Northeastern Native Americans since the beginning of corn agriculture more than a thousand years ago. Dried cornhusks are soft when soaked in water, finished dolls are sturdy enough for toys. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Although CPS was out of school for two snow days last week, the CPS Academic Calendar will remain the same for the 2019-20 school year. All scheduled holidays, breaks, graduation, and the last day of school will not be affected. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

The Book Fair is extended!!! Mrs. James will have the book fair open 7:30am-2:30pm on Monday to make up for the snow days!! She still has a ton of great books!

We took Fanny Pack Friday to another level!!!! Instead of just dancing in the classrooms we visited the Book Fair and glanced at a few books then it was off to PE to do some jump roping for the Kids Heart Challenge. Check out the videos on our fb page! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

SORRY KIDS - NO MORE SNOW DAYS CPS will resume our regular schedule tomorrow, Feb. 7th. The roads are clear, so we will not need to retrofit our new buses to get you there. Remember, Friday is our collaboration day; all sites will dismiss early, as usual. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Due to the dropping temperatures and re-freezing of melted snow, the road conditions continue to be hazardous, Claremore Public Schools will remain closed Thursday, February 6th. As a result, the Parent/Teacher Conferences scheduled for tomorrow will now be Thursday, February 13th. Your previously scheduled conference time will remain the same unless you contact your child's teacher directly or go to the myconferencetime site to change your time. https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/o/cps/news

Last week our 3rd graders learned about the life of Will Rogers from Mr. Hogan. They were asked to create a diorama portraying part of his life. They will be on display at the Memorial and the public can go in and vote on which one they think is the best. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

It’s National School Counselors Day!!! Don’t worry, we will celebrate when we get back!!! Today would be the perfect time for your child to write a note or draw a picture for our sweet Mrs. McComb. We are very lucky to have Mrs. McComb at Catalayah!! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
