🌱🐞 Learning straight from the experts!

Second-grade students at Roosa Elementary welcomed the Master Gardeners for a hands-on lesson all about garden helpers and pests. Students learned how to tell the difference between “good bugs” and “bad bugs” and why each plays an important role in a healthy garden.

Growing knowledge one garden lesson at a time! 🦓🌼

🎶🔊 Exploring Sound Waves in Science!

Students in Mrs. Simmonds’ class at Claremore High School dove into interactive Sound Wave Stations to discover how sound travels and behaves.

Through engaging activities, students explored key concepts like refraction, reflection, transmission, and absorption, observing how sound moves through different materials and environments. Along the way, they collaborated, experimented, and connected real-world examples to what they’re learning in class.

Science you can see, and hear, in action! 🦓✨

Mrs. Samantha Roller, a 1st-grade teacher at Catalayah Elementary School, added her 2nd little zebra to our Zebra Dazzle.

On March 26, 2026, Reid Damon made his debut, weighing 7 lbs 2 oz and measuring 19.5 inches long. Reid will be welcomed home by his dad, big brother, and a host of Catalayah school-teacher moms.

Moments like these remind us that our Zebra community extends far beyond the classroom.

🦓🌳 Welcome to Robson Park 🌳🦓

There’s something special about a playground. It’s where friendships are formed, imaginations take off, and kids get to be kids.

At Claremore Public Schools, we’re incredibly proud to open a space that reflects exactly who we are, a true neighborhood school built around community. Our new playground was designed with every student in mind. An inclusive, ADA-accessible space where all students can play, connect, and feel like they belong.

From interactive puzzles and sensory features to climbing areas and multiple slides, there’s something here for everyone. And if you make your way to the top, you’ll see just how big this space really is… and just how big the opportunities are for our students.

This didn’t happen overnight. It took a village, site and district funds, PTO support, private donations, and special education funding, all coming together to create something meaningful. It’s a reflection of what happens when a community invests in its kids.

Many of us remember what used to be here, simpler structures, smaller spaces, but now, alongside those memories, we have something new. A playground that continues to grow with our students and meet a wide range of needs and abilities.

We’ve named it Robson Park, in honor of Frank Robson, whose commitment to education has left a lasting impact on Claremore Public Schools. He and his sister attended Claremont as children, making this tribute especially meaningful. His continued investment in our schools reflects an aligned mission and belief that strong schools build strong communities.

Because at the end of the day, strong schools build strong communities… and this is a place where both can grow.
