We spotted a herd of Zebras in Jacaleapa, Honduras! Lydia Wickham, Riley Fay, Emersen McKinney, Cash Eubanks, and Isaiah DeLong are representing Claremore Public Schools while serving on a mission trip. ❤️✈️
From lending a helping hand to building relationships with the local community, these Zebras are making a difference far beyond Oklahoma. We're proud to see our students and families sharing their time, talents, and Zebra spirit wherever they go!

Where's the beef? Right here at Zebra Nutrition! 🥩🐄
We're gearing up for an exciting new school year and that starts with bringing fresh, locally sourced ingredients to our students! Our Zebra Nutrition team recently acquired over 2,000 pounds of locally sourced beef in the form of hamburger patties and ground beef.
That means even more delicious, homemade favorites are coming to our cafeterias! Our ground beef will be featured in meals like chili, lasagna, spaghetti, shepherd's pie, and sloppy joes, giving students fresh, quality ingredients in some of their favorite dishes. 🍝🌶️🍔
We're proud to support local businesses while continuing to elevate the school lunch experience for our students.
A huge THANK YOU to DBar Beef/Dorsey Processing for partnering with us and helping make it all possible. We can't wait to serve these meals to our Zebras this school year! 🦓✨

Although we are enjoying the opportunity to recharge, we have not stopped planning. In the spirit of planning, we have created a BACK-TO-SCHOOL page on our website where you can find "all the things" in one place.
We still need to work out a few details, but we will update the webpage weekly as those decisions are made.

A few of our Claremore Zebras had an unforgettable surprise at a Tulsa Drillers game when they met meteorologist Mike Grogan and the Drillers' mascot, Hornsby. Even better, they got the chance to be part of a live TV interview during the game!
What a fun memory and an awesome experience for our students. We love seeing our Zebras making memories wherever they go! ⚾🦓

Our high school students got a special lesson from Mr. Gibbs of Rogers State University on animal adaptations and ecosystems. Using different bird beak models and a variety of food sources, students explored how physical adaptations help animals survive and thrive in their environments.
Experiences like this bring science to life in a way that textbooks alone can’t. By interacting with the material in creative, hands-on ways, students are able to better understand complex concepts, make real-world connections, and retain what they’ve learned through active engagement.
A huge thank you to Mr. Gibbs for helping make science meaningful, memorable, and fun for our students! 🦓✨
