JOIN OUR TEAM! Be the first smile our students see in the morning and the last smile they see as they head home. CPS is hiring bus drivers! We are looking for people who love kids, who value an opportunity to positively influence the lives of our students and see these young people as precious cargo. 🚍 District bus drivers work either four or five-hour routes per day. In the past, driving positions have proven to be a good fit for many retirees looking to make extra money while keeping them active in the community. In addition, it is a good income source for college students or parents looking for extra money. Drivers come from diverse backgrounds, but they have one common thread; they enjoy being around and helping the kids. 🚍 If you are interested in becoming a Claremore Public School bus driver, please contact Tim Gilliam, CPS Operations Director, for additional details. The job does require a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with school and passenger endorsements. The school district will reimburse these costs and starting pay begins at $15 per hour.

Parents and students, On Friday July 17, Mr. Frazier sent out a video and a powerpoint containing the details of the 3 options for starting school in August. With school starting in less than a month, it is vital for us to know your choice: traditional, virtual, or hybrid. You are allowed to change your decision, but we need to know what you would choose at this time. I am emailing and texting the link to the form along with the powerpoint and video. Brief description of the options: Traditional: This will be in class Mon-Thurs and Distance learning from home with their teachers on Fridays. Virtual School: This will be totally online with instruction powered by Edgenuity. A CPS certified teacher will be assigned to the student to monitor and help. Hybrid: This is a combination of the traditional and virtual. An example would be a student that wants to participate in band here on campus, but wants to do the rest of his/her classes online. Students will not be allowed to stay on campus during virtual class time. Transportation must be arranged by the parent. This is a very short description so please either watch the video or view the powerpoint for more information. Then answer the question on the form. It will take approximately 2 minutes to complete, and it is required of all of our students. Required Enrollment Option Form: https://forms.gle/8uPwXn6YG1Rh4syW8 Video and Powerpoint: https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/article/270253?org=cps Thank you and GO ZEBRAS!!

As we prepare for the upcoming school year, we have worked hard to develop a plan that focuses on the health and safety of our students and staff, and on delivering a high standard of learning for all students. CPS re-entry plan "RETURN TO LEARN" will be available on our website and mobile app, THIS FRIDAY, July 17th. The plan is an outline of education options, new procedures, and enhanced safety protocols designed to meet the unique needs of our students, their families, and our teachers and staff. We will also provide a forum for feedback from our parents and stakeholders at that time. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Thank you for your patience as our team continues to plan for the upcoming school year. Please know that the health and safety of our students and staff continue to remain our top priority. We know you have questions such as: ⬤ How will we safely and effectively return to in-classroom learning? ⬤ When will the school year start? How will the district mitigate risk? ⬤ What options do you have if you do not feel safe coming back to school in-person? Please know we are thoroughly working through these questions and many others. Our first "Fridays With Frazier" for the summer addresses some of those questions. Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/ClaremorePublicSchools Youtube: https://youtu.be/j0lC3xNJP78
