Welcome Ms. Elizabeth Wickham. Elizabeth is our new Biology and Physical Science teacher at the high school. She got her Bachelor's degree in Science at Rogers State University. Before accepting her job as a teacher at CHS she worked mostly in finances. Ms. Wickham has participated in a lot of volunteer work such as volunteering at her local church leading worship and helping with the youth activities, as well as volunteering at the Food Bank in Tulsa. She has also served as a medical counselor at a camp for children with Type 1 Diabetes. Elizabeth wanted to become a teacher so that she can share her love of Biology with others and try to inspire the students in such a way that they might also consider pursuing a career in that field.
Ain't No Party Like A CPSF Party!!!
The 2022 Gatsby Brainiac Brawl wouldn't have been a huge success without the hard work of the CPSF Board of Trustees. We are so thankful for this group of volunteers that share their talents and treasures to fulfill the mission of enriching the quality of education in the Claremore Public Schools.

Ethan Grimett selected as All-State Defensive Lineman.
“I'm so proud of Ethan. Ethan played linebacker for years, but he was willing to switch to the defensive line his senior year because that is where his team needed him. His unselfish attitude paid off in a big way. I look forward to coaching Ethan one last time this summer in the All-State game.” - Coach Hurt
The All-State game East vs West will be Jul 29, 2022.
Of course, we all know moms are their kids’ biggest fan, and in this family that is definitely true. “This was his first year in the position and to get picked for All-State speaks volumes of his work ethic. Our family is so proud of you Big E! A huge thanks to the coaches who have poured into him over the years. He’s had an amazing career as a Zebra and gets to suit up one more time as an All-Stater!” - Michelle Eaton
UPDATE - Ethan has committed to play for the Falcons at Friends University in Wichita, KS.

We are fortunate to have US Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Zachary Kappler visit Claremore's NJROTC Corps of Cadets.
The Corps of Cadets is mustering (in uniform) in the Maker Space to hear Chief Kappler speak about his career in the US Coast Guard (USCG) and USCG opportunities.
Chief Kappler drove from OKC, as there is only one USCG recruiting office in Oklahoma.
Our Corps of Cadets Commanding Officer, Cayden Hudson, interviewed Chief Kappler for the "Cadet Minute." Watch it here ➡ https://youtu.be/0d9ke-tAqFE

Volleyball started a new tradition - leaving a legacy on and off the court. Beginning this year, each senior will choose a brick in the locker room to leave their handprint, name, and number representing their effort in building this program.
This year's seniors sacrificed their blood, sweat, tears, and time for something bigger than themselves. We look forward to seeing ALL our seniors represented on this wall. May these bricks be a reminder for those who come after you of the foundation of sacrifice it takes to build a ZEBRA NATION.
