Squish it, roll it, shape it, create it!

Our 1st graders had the best time getting creative with Play-Doh. From silly shapes to colorful creations, there was no shortage of imagination or smiles.

Play-Doh and 1st grade? It's a pretty fun combination!

Our 4th graders took a step back in time as they wrote the Preamble on parchment-style paper using real fountain pens!

As part of their learning, students worked to recreate the style as accurately as possible, giving them a hands-on look at history and the writing process in a whole new way.

What a fun and meaningful way to bring learning to life!

Claremore Public Schools wants to partner with parents and guardians to accomplish our District goals for ALL students: to raise student achievement, close the achievement gap, provide educational equity, and ensure a safe educational environment.

One way we do this is through parent-teacher conferences. Although you can request a conference at any time, the district schedules four evening dates each year for conferences.

October 8th is the first opportunity for conferences across the District.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS with all the dates for the 26-27 school year: https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/article/97447

📚 Your Partnership Matters - October 8, 2026

Your child’s education is a team effort, and you are an important part of that team.

At Claremore Public Schools, we aim to partner with parents and guardians to raise student achievement, close achievement gaps, provide educational equity, and ensure a safe educational environment for every student.

One of the best opportunities to strengthen that partnership is through Parent-Teacher Conferences for PreK-8th grade families.

Conferences aren’t just for when there is a concern. They are an opportunity to:

❤️ Celebrate your child’s growth and successes
📚 Understand what your child is learning and where they may need support
🎯 Discuss academic goals and expectations
💬 Ask questions and share information that can help your child’s teacher better support them
🤝 Make sure home and school are working together toward the same goal: your child’s success

You can request a conference with your child’s teacher at any time throughout the year, but CPS also schedules four evenings specifically for conferences.

📅 Conferences are by appointment with your child’s teacher(s).

🔗 Appointment links are LIVE and will be shared by each teacher through Rooms. Families may also contact their child’s teacher(s) directly or visit:
https://www.myconferencetime.com/info/

Whether your child is thriving, struggling, or somewhere in between, the conversation matters.

We know schedules are busy, but a few minutes together can help build a stronger connection between home and school and keep your child moving forward. ❤️🦓

A sweet thank you to Two Branches Bakehouse!

At the beginning of the school year, one of our wonderful Claremont parents treated our staff to delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies from Two Branches Bakehouse. They were the perfect sweet treat during a busy start to the year!

We are so thankful for the families and local businesses who think of our staff and help make our Claremont community so special. Thank you, Two Branches Bakehouse, for spoiling us!

Would you try Squid Ink Pasta?

It was time for our monthly Try Day, and this time we had something a little different on the menu — Squid Ink Pasta!

Our students were encouraged to give it a try, and the reactions were definitely mixed! Some gave it two thumbs up, while others weren’t quite sure about this unique dish.

That’s what Try Days are all about — being brave, trying something new, and maybe even discovering a new favorite along the way. We’re proud of our adventurous Zebras for giving it a taste!
