Last night's halftime performance celebrates tradition, resilience, and culture through the art of Native dance.

🌟 Heaven Pahsetopah, the first woman to perform the Men’s Fancy Dance, honors her family’s legacy with each powerful movement, blending tradition with trailblazing spirit.

🌟 Tehi Chibitty performed the Osage-style Straight Dance, a representation of honor, discipline, and respect passed down through generations.

Together, they bring the heartbeat of Native dance to the field, sharing pride, identity, and culture with our Zebra community.

🧡 We are honored to host this celebration of heritage and strength.

💗 This is what it’s all about.

At Catalayah Elementary, our Zebra family came together in a beautiful way, to celebrate Mrs. Griffin finishing her breast cancer treatment.

Students and staff filled the halls with pink to honor her journey, lifting her up with joy, hugs, and plenty of love. Because at Claremore, we don’t just say we’re a family we show up for each other because we are one.

Tomorrow night at the football game, we’ll keep the spirit going strong during our district and community wide Pink Out for the month of October. Wear your pink, bring your pride, and help us show the world what Grit, Community, and Purpose look like Zebra style. 🦓

🎀 Once a Zebra, always a Zebra.

🎓 College Application Week Highlights at CHS!

Our Zebra seniors brought the energy during College Application Week, and we couldn’t be more proud of their momentum and enthusiasm!

📍 BINGO With a Purpose
Students explored college journeys by completing BINGO cards that encouraged conversations with teachers and staff about their own college experiences. One lucky winner from each grade took home a prize!

🎨 Senior Pennant Decorating
Seniors showed off their creativity (and college pride!) by decorating pennants representing the schools they applied to.

💻 College Applications in Motion
With the help of Mrs. Adcock, our College & Career Coordinator, CHS supported 253 seniors in starting their college applications, which is an incredible 83% of the senior class!

This week was a perfect example of our core values in action: Grit to chase big dreams, Community support from staff and peers, Excellence in preparation, Innovation in our activities, and a clear sense of Purpose for the future.

🐻 Fat Bear Week in Mrs. Williams' Class! 🌲

Mrs. Williams’ students had a beary fun time celebrating Fat Bear Week, a unique and engaging way to learn about wildlife and ecosystems!

From making their own Fat Bear Trail Mix to casting votes for their favorite chunky champions, students got hands-on with this furry-friendly tradition. They even virtually explored Katmai National Park and watched live footage from the bear cam to observe the real stars in action.

Learning about science and nature has never been so fun (or so delicious)!

🕷️ Ms. Hall’s 1st-grade class had a creepy-crawly good time learning about spiders!

After reading a book on these eight-legged creatures, students labeled the parts of a spider and wrapped up the lesson with a spider-themed math craft. 🧠➕🎨

Learning came alive through reading, hands-on exploration, and creative thinking, just another day of building strong foundations and sparking curiosity!
