My name is Chelle Stadler and I teach Kindergarten. I have been in education for 20 years, 14 of those being with CPS. I attended NSU where I received my Bachelors of Science in Early Childhood and Masters of Education in Reading.
I have been married for 22 years and have 2 children. Hannah is an Elementary Education major at Oklahoma State University. Max is a Senior at Claremore High School and plays football and sings in the Jazz Choir.
I love to spend time with my family at the lake and camping. I also love to crochet.
Claremont teachers love their students! We work tirelessly to create a positive environment that allows students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
Jennifer Crum, M.Ed., LPC, Certified School Psychologist, and Cindy Ramsey, M.Ed., Certified Reading Specialist would like to thank the Claremore Public School Foundation in granting a Fast Track Grant for "Orton Gillingham Online Academy."
The grant will be used for the 30-40 hours of online training and materials in the Orton Gillingham Approach and graduate level professional development credits.
Thank you to CPSF! We cannot wait to use what we learn in order to help Claremont students who struggle in the area of reading!
Mrs. Peck's first grade WIN group.
WIN time is such an important part of the day for all of our students. It gives them time to participate in targeted instruction that works to increase student achievement and academic success.
Today, January 27th, is Library Shelfie Day!
Library Shelfie Day was founded in 2014 by the New York Public Library and falls on the 4th Wednesday of January.
Whether you have a small library with a few select favorites or are a true bibliophile, arrange your collection on a shelf and take a picture. Express your inner artist! Build a tower of babbling books or a wall of words.
So, artfully arrange those books, and take a photo to share with us!
Some more of our wonderful teachers celebrating Library Shelfie Day!

5th grade students took measurements to a whole new level and measured everything in their class! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
Today, January 27th, is the anniversary of when the last Nazi concentration camp was liberated. Since 2005, it has been known as International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Remembrance of the Holocaust teaches us that humanity can survive unimaginable horrors. Personal strength and the will to live carried Holocaust survivors on until their rescue at the end of the war. It's a reminder that no evil is more powerful than the human spirit.
World Read-Aloud Day is February 4th!
Reading aloud to children is so important - so important that we want to celebrate this very special day with photos of our students enjoying a read aloud!
We would love to feature photos on our social media of our Claremont students snuggled up with a family member for a read-aloud!
Send us a photo via Facebook Messenger before February 4th if you would like to participate.
I am Elizabeth Keener, and I teach Kindergarten through 5th Grade Music. I have a Bachelor's degree in Music Education from the University of Tulsa. I have been teaching in Claremore since 2006, the majority of which has been at Claremont. I love working at Claremont because the staff and faculty work so hard for our students. My husband Lee and I have been married for over 38 years, and we have three wonderful grown children: a police officer, a designer, and a watchmaker! I love playing with my grandbaby, reading, gardening, and cooking.
4th graders attended a mini-lesson given by Mrs. Troyer our Library Media Specialist, where they learned research skills for their upcoming informational report. Students brainstormed keywords for their topic, learned about different website domains and which were more likely to be a good resource, and also learned about using Boolean operators when searching for information for their reports.
District-wide parent-teacher conferences will be held from 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM on February 4, 2021. Parents will need to make an appointment with their child's teacher(s). Read more for scheduling appointments...

Kindergartners in Mrs. Ramsey's class learn letter sounds and putting two letter words together to practice fluency! Mrs. Ramsey teaches her students procedures that make great readers such as:
*Putting your pointer finger under the word.
*Sitting up straight and tall.
*Gliding their finger left to right to follow the words.
These students are doing an excellent job learning procedures to become good readers each day! They LOVE to read!

Mrs. Freeman working on teen numbers with Kindergarten, playing “I have, who has."
Today Mr. Frazier takes you into the classroom of one of our finalists for District Teacher of the Year.
@Karin Howell teaches 2nd grade at @Claremont Elementary and is a Class of 2008 CHS Alum.
She is currently an Academic Language Practitioner and is working to become a certified Dyslexia Therapist.
When asked why she is a teacher, she said, "Teaching is her caffeine. I could be exhausted, but as soon as those precious faces walk through my door, I overflow with energy and an abundance of pouring out love. By being a teacher, I become a better human. It challenges me in the utmost stressful ways. But through those challenges, the silver lining is shown. I wouldn't rather do ANYTHING else."
When she found out, my husband accepted a Tulsa job; she started looking for jobs in her hometown, Claremore. She came across a position at Claremont and saw Mrs. @Randa Fey was the principal. She immediately desired to work under her because of the massive impact on her life as a high school student. That was in 2012, and she continues to enjoy working with her and growing under her leadership.
Her favorite quote is, "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." – Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Watch her in action on this week's Fridays With Frazier.

Students in Mrs. Proctor's 3rd grade class work to identify verb tenses and then record them on a chart.
Kindergarten students in Mrs. Crabb's class have been talking about MLK Jr., equality, and kindness this week. The students squeezed toothpaste on a plate then compared to when we speak to another person. Mrs. Crabb talked with her students about how we can't get the toothpaste back in the tube, much like we can not take hurtful words back after they are spoken. 💗
"You Can't Taste a Book by it's Cover," is a whimsical title to a book tasting event held by Mrs. Schell’s 4th grade class. A book tasting is a low-budget, high-impact event that engages students in a fun activity while introducing them to a wide array of books and genres.
Today is another distance learning day, Claremont families!
Growth Mindset is believing in the power of yourself and your brain! Developing the right mindset early on is crucial for a successful, happy life. When kids learn that putting forth effort and using the right strategies can help them get better at things, they feel empowered and try harder.
Distance learning is different, and it can be hard. While working together today, encourage your student to take a different approach when facing a difficult assignment. Having a growth mindset can make all the difference!
