Our student's are really enjoying the Innovation Lab! Here 4th grade is working on a K'Nex challenge using a program called Launch Pad. In this lesson, student's learn how to problem solve using mechanics and structures in the design process.
My name is Vona Cardwell. I have been in education for 12 years, with all 12 of those being at CPS. I have taught grades 4-8 and am now the innovation lab facilitator at both Claremont and Roosa. I attended Northeastern State University where I received a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I am married and have a daughter who is in pharmacy school. I enjoy reading and spending time with my friends and family. I absolutely love the positivity, friendliness and collaboration among the teachers and staff at Claremont.

2nd graders in Mrs. Howells class completed a science experiment. Their questions: "What happens when baking soda and vinegar combine? What if we put it in a bottle with a balloon over the opening?"
Students learned that when vinegar and baking soda are combined, it creates gas that can inflate a balloon.
Claremont Teachers wore their Ugly (and cute) Christmas sweaters yesterday! The building sure felt festive!
This holiday season, teachers and students at Claremont wanted to give back! Each of our classes adopted 1-2 officers from Claremore Police Department to shower them with their favorite things. On Tuesday, our classes were able to present these to the officers. It was so much fun!

After a round of "follow the leader," Mrs. Fay talks to one of our third grade classes about the importance of being leaders in our school.
Take a look at how some of our Claremont teachers and students spent their #SNOW DAY! We hope your snow day was as fun and restful for you as it was for us! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
Pre-K students created life-size gingerbread men. They began the project with Mrs. Smith tracing their outline onto a white piece of paper and then were able to decorate their men however they saw fit. We think they turned out awesome!
