The Zebra Baseball Camp was a tremendous success, bringing together the next generation of Claremore baseball players for a week filled with learning, competition, and fun.
Campers had the opportunity to develop their skills, build confidence, and learn from Zebra coaches and players while experiencing what it means to be part of the Claremore Baseball family. From fundamentals to friendly competition, the future of Zebra Baseball was on full display.
A special thank you to our coaches, players, volunteers, and families who helped make this camp such a memorable experience. We loved seeing so many young athletes on the field and can't wait to watch them continue to grow in the game.
The future is bright for Zebra Baseball! ⚾️🔥
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE #ZebraBaseball










For three days, future Zebras hit the field to learn the fundamentals of football from the coaches and players who know it best. Campers worked through a variety of offensive and defensive drills, built their skills, and got a taste of what it means to be part of the Zebra Football family.
A huge shoutout to our coaching staff and current high school players for investing their time and energy into the next generation of Zebra athletes. Their leadership, encouragement, and passion for the game helped make this camp such a great experience for every camper.
The future is looking bright, and this is only the beginning. Football may be back, but there's plenty more work to do as we gear up for Summer Pride later this summer. The excitement is building, and we can't wait to see our athletes continue to grow and prepare for the season ahead. 🦓🏈❤️

Students refreshed and sharpened their skills in areas like wound care, taping techniques, and emergency response while also connecting with athletic training students and professionals from across the state. They even wrapped up the day competing in the “Athletic Training Olympics,” putting their knowledge and teamwork to the test.
Opportunities like this give our students valuable hands-on learning experiences while helping them explore future careers in sports medicine and healthcare. We are proud of these students and excited to see them continue to grow! 🦓✨






Led by Coach Jackson, campers spent three days working through drills, training, and skill development as they continued growing their game and preparing for the future. From elementary students all the way up to high school seniors, athletes of all ages came together to learn, compete, and build confidence on the court.
Thank you to our older players for stepping up to help mentor and encourage the younger campers along the way. That Zebra family atmosphere was on full display all week long! ❤️🖤

The Why Behind the Work: Bryan Frazier Named District 6 Superintendent of the Year
For Bryan Frazier, leadership has never been about titles, recognition, or standing behind a podium. It has always been about people.
It is about the student who needs someone to believe in them before they believe in themselves. It is about the teacher who stays late to help a struggling learner. It is about building a school system rooted in trust, relationships, and purpose. And it is about ensuring every decision ultimately points back to what is best for students.
That philosophy is one reason Frazier has been named the 2026 Oklahoma Association of School Administrators (OASA) District 6 Superintendent of the Year, an honor recognizing exceptional leadership, service to public education, and contributions to educational advancement across Oklahoma.
Now in his ninth year leading, Frazier has guided the district through some of the most challenging and defining moments in modern education. From navigating a statewide teacher walkout and leading through the COVID-19 pandemic to overseeing curriculum reform, and the district’s largest bond preparation effort, his leadership has consistently focused on maintaining stability while continuing to move the district forward.
But those who know Frazier best say the story is bigger than the challenges he has managed. It is about the culture he has helped create.
Under his leadership, CPS established five district core values: Grit, Community, Excellence, Purpose, and Innovation. Those values are not simply branding statements placed on banners or websites. They shape district decision-making, program development, staff expectations, and student support systems across every school site.
The district’s current annual theme, “Win the Day,” reflects a philosophy that meaningful change is not built through one major moment, but through consistent, intentional effort every single day.
“Public schools are one of the most important institutions in our communities, and this recognition reflects the work of an entire district, not just one individual,” Frazier said. “I am incredibly grateful for our students, staff, families, Board of Education, and community partners who continue to believe in the mission of public education and the work we do together every day.”
