Claremont Elementary

Thank you to Natasha Morrison, owner and stylist at tHAIRapy Studio here in Claremore, for spending her Monday treating our staff to trims and eyebrow waxes! She’s been doing this for several years during Teacher Appreciation Week as a way to say thank you to our Claremore teachers, and it’s always such a fun experience! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE #teacherappreciation

Happy National Nurses Day! Today we honor someone who plays a truly vital role at Claremont: Nurse Kyla! Whether she’s treating scraped knees, soothing upset hearts, or offering a comforting smile, she brings compassion, care, and calm to every student and staff member she meets. Nurse Kyla is more than just our school nurse. She is a constant source of support, a trusted listener, and a true team player. No matter the situation, she’s always ready to lend a hand, step in where needed, and go above and beyond to keep our school safe, healthy, and happy. Thank you, Nurse Kyla, for all the ways you care for us each and every day. Claremont is so lucky to have you! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE #nationalnursesday

For Earth Day, our students enjoyed a special treat in the cafeteria! Our amazing Claremont cafeteria staff whipped up a delicious meal of Loaded Earth Spuds (loaded tater tots), Earth Day Franks (hot dogs), and for dessert, Worms ‘N’ Dirt! It was such a fun way to celebrate the day, reflect on what it’s all about, and remind ourselves to be mindful of our planet. “Save the Earth today, for tomorrow.” #CPSZEBRAPRIDE #earthday

Second grade spent their Social and Emotional Learning time working on balance. Though this skill may seem easy, it takes focus, control, and patience, just like managing our emotions! The students had a great time practicing both physical and emotional balance, one careful step at a time. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
