"We don't remember days; we remember moments." — Unknown. Tonight is one moment these royal Zebras will remember for years to come. The seniors have spoken and chosen 8 King and 8 Queen candidates for this year's royal court. Tonight they will reveal the 2020 Homecoming King and Queen, the entire student body has selected. Coronation will take place at 6:30 PM on Lantow Field. In all honesty, you don't need to be in the running for king or queen to look forward to homecoming.

"Music is what feeling sounds like," unknown. Recently, 19 students from Claremore High School (CHS) sang their way to feeling accomplished, proud, excited, and honored. Why?

IT'S HOMECOMING WEEK Over the past 100+ years, homecoming has grown into a production rivaling any 6A high school and even several colleges in Oklahoma. Claremore High School is rooted in tradition, but those traditions did not all begin on day one. Graduating classes have started, stopped, added, and changed those traditions over the years, and it's expected 100 years from now, they will continue to change. This year 59 CHS students receive recognition, in the homecoming festivities, for their outstanding efforts and contributions to CHS. Fifty-nine students actively participate and lead in an average of 5 co-curricular and extracurricular activities at CHS. These young people are woven in the fabric and culture of what it means to be a Zebra, so over the next few days, CHS will feature each of these representatives and tell you what their favorite part of being a Zebra is to them. ⭐ Ashley Adragna - ROTC ⭐ Molly Bazar - Art Club ⭐ Cauy Brooks - FUZE ⭐ Aaron Brown - Christian Club ⭐ Ella Claborn - Basketball ⭐ Ryan Conner - FCA ⭐ Tyler Douthitt - National Honor Society (NHS) ⭐ Brayden East - ROTC ⭐ Teah Ellard - ZTV ⭐ Mariah Galutza - Math Club ⭐ Christian Gotcher - Golf ⭐ Ben Haley - FFA You can find the homecoming schedule on the CPS website. https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/o/chs/page/homecoming #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Have you ever dreamed of floating through the clouds? Today Mrs. Rahn's classes will be a part of the Mid-Atmospheric Balloon Launch. Mrs. Rahn's class is partnering with the Smithsonian US Air & Space Museum with the Balloon Launch Across America! We are one of 8 schools across the country who will be launching the balloons. Students are doing a Neutral Buoyancy Lab to prepare for a Mid-Atmospheric Balloon Launch. They used Helium filled balloons and different weights to allow balloons to hover in a neutral space without positive or negative buoyancy. Each balloon has a small satellite and tracker where students will see "Real-Time Data" and track the balloon's journey. Our goal is to have our balloon travel around the world! Today at 12:15 PM you can watch Mrs. Rahn live Youtube https://youtu.be/2mX7TOoYAPs Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ClaremorePublicSchools or You can the livestream from the Smithsonian here: https://airandspace.si.edu/events/live-balloon-launch-across-america #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We all started out with a range of technology skills when the school year began in August - teachers, parents, and students. Each week we all become more experienced in these skills that are necessary to be successful in today's world. However, it's not just about today's world but the world 5, 10, 20 years from now.

The Cherokee Nation will be providing drive-thru vaccine clinics around NE Oklahoma October-December. Cherokee Nation citizens and their families, including non-Native family members living in the household. Ages 6 months or older can get a flu vaccine for free from the convenience of their vehicles. For a complete Cherokee Nation flu vaccination schedule, also visit health.cherokee.org/community-flu-clinics. “The viruses that cause influenza and COVID-19 will both be spreading through our communities this fall and winter and you can potentially become infected with both,” said Roger Montgomery, executive medical director for Cherokee Nation Health Services. “Getting a flu shot won’t prevent COVID-19 infection but it will reduce your chance of getting influenza. Please take advantage of the proven protection that comes from getting a flu shot.”

The Lady Zebras win the first Regional Championship since 2013, right here on their home field! Claremore 10 - Glenpool 5 on the scoreboard. Congratulations! Let's celebrate and then prepare to #takestate! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
