Zebs & Dazzle made a quick stop at @chickfilaclaremore for some delicious bites and Zebra-sized deliciousness! 🦓 Who else is craving waffle fries & Chic Fil A sauce? 😋 #CPSZebraPride

Zebs shared a legendary piece of history with Dazzle today—the story of how Claremore High School became home to the one and only Zebra mascot! 🦓
It all started in the 1920s when the football team debuted their new striped jerseys. A spectator remarked, "They look like a bunch of zebras," and the name stuck! Did you know the original stripes were purple and gold? 💜💛
By 1930, Superintendent Homer C. Heard kept costs down by ordering more affordable red shirts and white khaki pants. That decision established the red and white school colors we proudly wear today! ❤️🤍 Claremore remains the only school in Oklahoma with a Zebra mascot—talk about unique! 🎉

Zebs and Dazzle were caught trying to sneak a look at their Christmas presents before the holiday! Our school resource officer, Officer Truman, had to take them into the station so Santa could interrogate them! With the threat of coal in their stockings, I’d say lesson learned!🦓🎅🏽 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
