Once a Zebra, Always a Zebra🦓 Welcome to our Alumni series, which features our staff, who are also Zebra Alumni! As we always say, once a Zebra, always a Zebra, these staff members understood the assignment! If you graduated with today's featured alumni or had them as teachers, give them a shoutout in the comments! 🦓 Jolene Smith 🏫Claremore High School - Teacher 🎓Zebra Alumni: 2014 ❤What has been your favorite part about returning as a staff member? The people. Everyone works together. We all want the best for our students, colleagues, and school district. We are dedicated to educating our students and up for improving our teaching methods. My favorite part about returning as a staff member is that I can collaborate with the teachers I had as a CHS student. I remember what their classes were like and what I enjoyed about them in school, and I can apply that in my own classroom now. I also feel more connected to my students because I know what it is like to be a student at CHS, and now I can give them the same encouragement that I was given that helped me succeed. 💭What is one of your favorite memories from being a CPS student? I have so many great memories as a student at CPS. I have always loved learning and being in school - it has always felt like a second home. One of my favorite memories is Mrs. Rawson's Fourth Grade class. I loved the Long Division Unit! We would have a few warm-up problems, and the four of us at my table would all race to see who could complete the problems the fastest. 👩🏻‍🏫What was your favorite class? My favorite class was Honors Trigonometry! 📣What was your favorite extracurricular? I was on the Archery Team from 7th grade through 12th grade. We practiced before and after school. The team always encouraged one another, and gave tips on how to get better during our competitions. We always had a great time together when we traveled to the state competition. ⭐What was trending when you graduated? Clothes, songs, movies, etc. Clothes: American Eagle & Abercrombie & Fitch Songs that I remember being popular: Happy by Pharrel Williams, Counting Stars by OneRepublic I didn't stay up with the trends 😂 #cpszebrapride
