What does the census mean for Claremore Public Schools? An accurate census count is the critical first step to helping educators address the needs of every child who walks through its doors. The census count only happens once every 10 years, and when young children aren’t counted, the consequences can last most of their childhood. Claremore students deserve the very best and deserve to be counted. All federal funds are allocated from the U.S. Department of Education to states based on their census count. An inaccurate count could mean lower federal funds for Oklahoma students. This is our only shot for the next 10 years to get the census right. For more information, please visit the following websites: www.okletscount.org www.census.gov Read more here - https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/article/298914
