We had the privilege of honoring our 2024-25 Jazz Band with their State Championship Rings! 💍🎶

This incredible group of musicians earned this recognition through countless hours of practice, teamwork, and passion for their craft. Their journey to the top wasn’t easy—it took commitment, grit, and an unwavering drive for excellence.

Every note played and every rehearsal attended reflected their dedication to representing Claremore with pride. They are the embodiment of what it means to have Zebra Pride—hardworking, resilient, and united.

Congratulations, Jazz Band! You’ve made your mark, and we couldn’t be prouder! 🦓🎺💪

🔍🥨 Pretzel Detectives on the Case!

In Mrs. Simmonds’ science class, curiosity and critical thinking took center stage as students became “pretzel detectives”! Using their observation skills, they explored texture, taste, and twisty details, asking questions, making hypotheses, and drawing conclusions.

This hands-on activity blended learning with fun, nurturing both academic excellence and joyful discovery. Our students are living out the Great Expectations by being actively engaged, working cooperatively, and speaking with purpose and we love seeing their grit, curiosity, and innovation shine through!

🎯 Figurative Fun in 4th Grade!

Ms. Johnson’s class tackled figurative language challenges, and their creativity was on fire! 🔥 From similes and metaphors to idioms and personification, these students brought language to life in thoughtful and expressive ways.

By exploring figurative language, they’re not just learning grammar; they’re building voice, purpose, and confidence as young writers. ✍️💬
