It's FLAG DAY. Here are our new flags and poles at Claremont and Will Rogers Junior High made possible with the #ZebraBond2019. We'd love to see your flags flying. Post a pic in the comments. It is the day, 244 years ago, when Congress commemorated Betsy Ross' creation of the Stars & Stripes as our national flag. The flag has looked different throughout those years, of course, 27 variations, actually, as America grew through the colonies to the 50 states represented in the white stars today. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Happy retirement to Kerri Garroutte, Principal at CHS. Let's give her a virtual 👏ovation for her years of service in the comments. 🍎 What school did you begin teaching at for CPS? WRJH in 1988 🍎 What year did you start teaching for CPS? 1988 🍎 How many years were you a CPS employee? 33 years 🍎 What you are most proud of in your time at CPS? Students and their accomplishments. They are absolutely amazing. 🍎 What are the memories you will take with you? As a teacher, it will be those moments when I knew I made a difference either in the student's understanding of math or in learning a life lesson. As an administrator, it will be talking to students in my office and witnessing the growth, both mental and cognitive, that takes place in a student from freshman year to senior year. Graduation is the best night of every school year. 🍎 What does it mean to be a Zebra to you? It means everyone is a unique, valued member of a family and we take care of one another. 🍎 What is one piece of advice you would give incoming teachers? Be passionate, be present, be positive. Smile at the students. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

The Cherokee Nation is receiving $1.8 billion in COVID-19 recovery funds as part of a historic investment in Indian Country. We at Claremore Public schools want to make sure that our students and families are aware of this. Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. and Deputy Chief Bryan Warner’s proposed spending plan for the funds will provide every Cherokee citizen with a total of $2,000 in direct relief assistance. This assistance is for EVERY Cherokee citizen with a blue tribal membership card. The Cherokee Nation will begin launching applications for its Respond, Recover and Rebuild COVID-19 assistance using FRF funds through the tribe’s online Gadugi Portal. Applications for direct assistance are expected to be online on June 1st or 2nd, but citizens are encouraged to register for the Gadugi Portal now to ease the sign-up process later. It is encouraged that everyone in the household creates a profile on the Gadugi Portal this means each citizen, yes children as well. Follow the link below to the Gadugi Portal. Please contact Jackie Boyd at jboyd@claremore.k12.ok.us if you need any assistance with this process. https://cherokee.org/about-the-nation/gadugi-portal/
