Professional teachers are made in the preparation; in the day in and day out of their discipline. They are made as they execute their training in the trenches and on the grand stage. They are made in the quite (okay, it's never really quiet) and in the noisy hallways and classrooms of their schools. They are made in the heart of a person - a person that chooses excellence, chooses compassion, chooses to invest in others, chooses to love.
Claremore Public Schools is overflowing with #CPSZEBRAPRIDE for the professional teacher Mrs. Michelle Rahn is.
SENIOR PARENTS it's hard to believe we are already planning for the end of the year. The last time the Class of 2020 will be all together as a group. To help keep everyone informed the GRAD BASH committee invites you to like the After Graduation Party Facebook page.
