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.

There are so many significant events going on at CHS, so check out t this week's ZTV!
Our students are taking a professional approach to develop their broadcasting skills and telling the CHS story along the way. Each team is taking time to implement the three main steps in video production: pre-production, the planning stage for mapping out your strategy and script for the video; production is the phase in which the video is shot; and finally, post-production, which involves editing the video adding music and other effects.

Seniors, if you are planning to study engineering in college there is a new Engineering Scholarship application available in the counseling office. Please see Mrs. Grace for more information.
Every Senior gets 2 days to visit a college, tech school or military entrance processing . Once proper documentation is turned in, the absence will not count against the student.
CHS's DRUG-FREE LOOKS LIKE ME theme today was "Anything But Drugs," and to get their point across, students had to bring all their school books & supplies in "anything but a backpack."
Check out their creativity!
Wednesday's theme: "Get Rid of Those Drugs" - Wear something that makes someone say, "Why is THAT in your closet."
