FRIDAYS WITH FRAZIER
Congratulations to our eight Site Teacher of the Year recipients. Their colleagues chose them to represent their site for consideration for the 2021-2022 Claremore Public Schools Teacher of the Year, announced later this month.
Over the next several months, each teacher will create a dossier including a personal biography and essays on education issues and trends, community involvement, philosophy of teaching, and the teaching profession. A committee will review these documents, a lesson video and host an interview with each candidate.
Stay tuned to learn more about each of these fantastic teachers and why their peers choose them to represent their school. The District Teacher of the Year will be announced in the spring of 2022.

Cherokee Heritage Days was a huge hit at Catalayah!! 3rd-5th graders got to enjoy hearing stories from Robert Lewis. He did some Native American storytelling, and also talked about some of the Native American traditions and cultures. There was even some Native American artwork hanging behind him, that the kids were asking him about.
Robert Lewis is a Cherokee National Treasure and an award-winning storyteller, author, and artist of Cherokee, Navajo, and Apache descent. Robert has appeared on local television and radio programs to share the wisdom and beauty of Native stories.
Robert became a storyteller in spring 2003 while he was working at the Cherokee Heritage Center in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, as a tour guide for the ancient village. Robert Lewis said, “I had the opportunity to tell this story to a group of schoolchildren and parents waiting for a tour to begin. During the course of the tale, Barbara Girty, who at the time was in charge of group tours for the museum, heard me and so began this unique journey I find myself on.”
Have your kids had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Lewis tell stories??? He is amazing. Ask them when they get home about his storytelling!
