In honor of the Labor Day holiday, CPS will be closed on Monday, September 7th, 2026.

"Before the reward, there must be labor. You plant before you harvest. You sow in tears before you reap joy." Ralph Ransom

Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. The labor movement created it in the late 19th century, and it became a federal holiday in 1894.

Back in June, sophomore Ellyanna had an incredible week in Kentucky competing at the Junior Hunter Finals with her horse, Pip! Competing against a highly competitive field of 67 riders, Ellyanna and Pip proved to be an incredible dynamic duo.

A few highlights from their week include:

⭐️ 14th Place – Large Junior 3’3” 15 & Under Classic
⭐️ 17th Overall – Large Junior 3’3” 15 & Under

Competing at this level requires dedication, countless hours of practice, and a strong partnership between horse and rider. We are so proud of Ellyanna for representing Claremore High School and showing that our Zebras are making their mark both in and out of the classroom!

🦓 Once a Zebra, always a Zebra… and now they’re raising one of their own!

We’re kicking off our 2026–27 Zebra baby announcements with a pretty special addition to the Dazzle! 💙

Grayson Bruce Grimitt recently made his debut, joining two lifelong Zebras—Coach Noah Grimitt and his wife, Brianna, both proud Claremore alumni.

From growing up Zebras themselves to now welcoming the newest little member of Zebra Nation, this one feels a little full circle.

Congratulations, Noah and Brianna! We can’t wait to watch your littlest Zebra grow up surrounded by plenty of red and white. ❤️🦓

Welcome to the Dazzle, Grayson!

Coach McQueen’s students kicked off the school year with a little STEM challenge! Students were challenged to build a tower using everyday items like straws, tape, and rubber bands that could hold a golf ball.

A great way to get students thinking creatively, working together, and putting their problem-solving skills to the test!

💪 Lots of Moves at CHS! 💪

Summer may be in session, but there’s been plenty of work happening behind the scenes! Our NJROTC cadets and student-athletes stepped up to help move furniture, rearrange classrooms, and get CHS ready for a new school year. 🏫💪

Their teamwork, work ethic, and willingness to give up part of their summer made a BIG difference!

Thank you to our students for helping get CHS ready for another great year!

Even in the middle of summer, our CHS staff is investing in our students’ success. ☀️📚 A few weeks ago, staff members attended an ACT workshop focused on content-area instruction and effective test-taking strategies to help improve student achievement. We’re always looking for new ways to support our students and prepare them for success beyond high school. The countdown to a new school year is on, and we’re excited to welcome our students back soon. Here’s to a year of learning, growth, and reaching new goals together! 🦓

Our high school volleyball players had a set-ting example of leadership as they helped out at a youth volleyball camp!

They served up skills, encouragement, and energy while mentoring younger athletes and keeping the game fun and competitive. It was a real ace of a day as they helped build confidence and sharpen fundamentals for the next generation.

Proud of our Zebras for always digging deep and giving back to the game!
