Mrs. Karly Johnson, a teacher at Westside Elementary, traveled to the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Las Vegas for our #ZebraTravelDiaries. Each season the conservatory team creates art with living materials. They made zebras this summer, so she had to snap a picture to show her #CPSZEBRAPRIDE.

We heard your feedback on the need to streamline platforms for communication. Say "hello" to ROOMS located in our mobile app. ONE platform for ALL TEACHERS and COACHES district-wide. No more creating an account on multiple apps for multiple students in the district. You will find it on one app from HS to Pre-K, band to football. Here is a sneak peek... https://youtu.be/jG0-D4JCVaA

The first two rounds of JOM school supply distribution was a success. What is JOM? Johnson O’Malley (JOM) is a federally-funded program that provides supplemental education programs for Native American students attending public schools. Schools receive funds based on the number of Native American students attending Claremore Public Schools. Johnson O’Malley is for any student who can prove Indian blood by submitting a copy of the student’s tribal membership and Certificate of Degree of Indian Blood (CDIB) cards to the Claremore Schools Enrollment Center. Once eligibility is determined through the JOM database, students will be eligible to receive services. Funds must be used to supplement the education of Native American students not supplant. Services offered may include but are not limited to school supplies, graduation caps & gowns, ACT test fees ($30) per student, AP fees ($30) per student, culturally themed events, as well as educational incentives and awards (book fair voucher). Our next JOM school supply distribution will be September 13th from 4p-6p for those who did not pick their packets or any new JOM verified students.
