It looks like another "Slip, Slide, and Stay Inside Day" on Friday, February 21st. Due to the continued weather, dangerous roads, parking lots, and sidewalks, Claremore Public Schools will be closed again tomorrow. While we always strive to keep schools open, safety remains our top priority.
CPS after-school activities are canceled. The OSSAA state wrestling regional matches will proceed as scheduled on Friday. The 5A matches begin at 5 p.m. The OSSAA state swim meet has been rescheduled to the 24th and 25th. Check your Rooms for updates from your coaches and advisors.
This will be an official “snow day,” so your assignment includes being safe, staying warm, and making a memory! Make it “A Great Day To Be A Zebra.”
District leaders will continue to monitor the forecast and evaluate conditions, and decisions will be made on a day-by-day basis. Updates will be on all CPS platforms (Website, Mobile App, Facebook, & Email) and local TV stations. Download the app on Android or iPhone.
