A tradition of excellence on the field and in the classroom; that is why we call them student-athletes. For the 5th year in a row, the Claremore baseball team has qualified for the OSSAA Academic Achievement Award.

Mrs. Shilling's 6th-grade choir students went to Owasso High School and participated in the "Circle the State with Song" festival. In class, students auditioned and learned eight concert songs. Along with others who qualified from the northeast region of the state, our students spent the day working with Michael Shimp, the guest clinician. The CTSWS choir ended their experience performing a concert.

One of the highlights of National FFA Week is serving our community. Today @ClaremmoreFFA members packed bags for Food 4 Kids. This community service activity is one of the best programs we participate in throughout the year.
When students leave school for the weekend, the last thing they should have to worry about is how they are going to get their next meal. Food 4 Kids sends bags of nutritious food home for students at CPS that are part of the program. Having the opportunity to give back is an essential part of FFA.

The CHS WRESTLING TEAM is off to the State Tournament! Leave everything on the mat and show them our #CPSZEBRPRIDE.
TAKE STATE - MAKE HISTORY.
WRJH Girls in STEM Club participated in the Tulsa Regional STEM Alliance's Women STEM event. The girls entered a shoe challenge to design a versatile woman's shoe appropriate for a corporate and manufacturing setting. One of our teams took 1st place in the safest shoe design! These young women also participated in breakout sessions, including a science experiment, using robotics, inquiry-based math, and an engineering challenge.
Dr. Kayse Shrum, Oklahoma Secretary of Science, was the keynote speaker encouraging the girls to "Be the Best Version of Yourself" and to "Dream Big and Live with Purpose."
Thank you, Tulsa Regional STEM Alliance, for this inspirational opportunity! Wendee Henry of Claremore was also honored as a Woman of STEM and was a guest at our table!

Claremore's technology program has been crazy busy, hosting a VEX tournament and a TSA conference these past two weeks. Last weekend there were 60 VEX teams, and this weekend over 400 students here to compete at the TSA Mini-Conference.
Claremore students competed well at both events, but Mr. Isenbart is most proud of the #CPSZEBRAPRIDE they demonstrated. Students came in early and stayed late the past three weeks preparing to make the competitions a success. Students made trophies, printed judges' packets, set up fields, helped organize and run both competitions.
The community support was unbelievable as well. Parents, advisors, teachers, former students, members of this community, as well as people from surrounding communities came to help—all a testament to the significant contributions the program and Mr. Isenbart have made in his tenure here.
Thank you to everyone for all the hours, sacrifices, positive attitudes, and the support everyone has gives to the Claremore TSA and Robotics programs.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to walk across Africa? In Mrs. Jarrett's geography class, each student was assigned a different area to research and describe the different physical features of it in a presentation to their peers.

With CHS Basketball Senior Night coming up tomorrow night we have a special #TBT post for you today.
One hundred years ago, the Claremore boys basketball team took to the court for the very first time. The 1920 yearbook states that this was the first year the boys' team "tried" the sport. The story about the girls' team was vague about the first year they played, but in 1820 they won more games than the boys did that year.
You've probably learned or heard about DNA, but have you ever seen it? As you may know, DNA is present in every cell of all plants and animals and determines all genetic traits of the individual organism.
Mrs. Tietz's and Mrs. Simpson's class had guest speakers from the Noble Research Institute to help with this lesson. Each class extracted DNA from strawberries, put it in vials, and were able to take it home.
Now that's a "berry" fun way to learn about DNA!
