A HUGE congratulations to our outstanding musicians, Lilly Doonkeen and Liam Sather, for earning their spot in the 2026 All-State Band! 🎶

This is an incredible accomplishment, and we couldn’t be more proud. Both students will represent Claremore at the All-State Convention in Tulsa this January — a showcase reserved for the best of the best across Oklahoma!

Lilly Doonkeen – 3rd Chair Clarinet, Symphonic Band
Liam Sather – 2nd Chair Drum Set, Jazz Band

Their talent, dedication, and countless hours of practice have truly paid off. Be sure to congratulate them when you see them — this achievement deserves a big celebration!

Way to go, Lilly and Liam! 🎉🦓🎵

🔬🎈 Hands-On Science in Action!

Our Biology students explored cellular respiration by combining water, yeast, and varying sugar levels to discover which mixture produced the most carbon dioxide. The result? Inflating balloons! 🎈✨

This simple but powerful experiment showed science in action, turning everyday ingredients into an exciting, hands-on lesson about CO₂ production. Love seeing our students’ curiosity and critical thinking come to life! 🍞💡

Secret Santa is underway in the admin office, and Zebs came prepared… but as soon as he left, she just had to sneak over for a peek. 👀

Patience isn’t exactly Dazzle’s strongest skill—no shaking or snooping, little elf! 😉

Students in our Biomedical program dove deep into the anatomy of the heart, identifying chambers, valves, and major arteries and veins, and tracing the full path of blood flow through this essential organ.

The experience culminated in a heart dissection, giving students an up-close look at the incredible structure they've been studying in class. From theory to application, these future health professionals are gaining the skills and knowledge to make a real impact.

We’re so proud of their curiosity, focus, and passion for learning!

Three of Dazzle’s elf friends are hiding somewhere in the photos… can you spot them all? 🔍👇

Balloons Over Broadway Parade! 🎈

Roosa second graders brought the magic of the Macy’s Day Parade right into the classroom! After learning all about the history and creativity behind the iconic event, students designed and showcased their very own personal parade balloons — and they turned out amazing!

From colorful characters to creative creatures, their imaginations were on full display. What a fun and festive way to bring learning to life! 🎉

📸🎒 Telling Stories Through Flat Lays

Our Photography students turned their backpacks inside out, literally, to tell the story of their school life using only the contents they carry each day.

They arranged their items using principles of balance and symmetry, captured everything in natural window light, and created powerful visual narratives that blend personal storytelling with technical artistry.

What a creative way to reflect on student life and practice professional photography skills!
