The Claremore High School NJROTC unit earned an impressive 3rd place finish at the Brain Brawl competition hosted by Alma High School. This fast-paced academic challenge tested cadets on NJROTC and U.S. Navy knowledge, along with bonus questions spanning science, history, civics, and current events.
Our cadets showed exceptional focus, teamwork, and academic strength under pressure. Their performance reflects NJROTCβs commitment to scholarship, leadership, and critical thinking.
Weβre proud of their hard work and thank Alma High School for hosting a competitive and well-run event!

Students raced to connect five key terms to one of the major βismsβ of the era, using definitions and real-life examples to make their case. From Capitalism, Communism, and Socialism to Nationalism, Romanticism, Liberalism, and Conservatism, students showcased both depth of understanding and quick thinking as they competed to win Bingo.
Fast-paced, competitive, and full of critical thinkingβhistory came alive in the best way!




Students in Ms. Taylorβs Biology class teamed up for a Monster Genetics activity, where they flipped coins to simulate how alleles are passed from parents to offspring. The genotypes they landed on with their partners determined the phenotypes their monsters displayedβeverything from traits to appearance!
Each partner then drew their own interpretation of their monster, bringing genetics to life through creativity. Thanks to the randomness of inheritance, no two groupsβ monsters were exactly the same!
