Students kicked off their hockey unit and are LOVING it!
One of the skills they’re working on is striking an object with a long-handled implement, and hockey is the perfect way to build coordination, control, and teamwork.
So much fun + so much learning happening in our gym!

Last Friday at Rise & Shine, we were blessed to have Mrs. Millsap’s class lead our assembly — and they did an incredible job!
Students shared what they love most about Claremont, and their answers were the sweetest reminder of why we are so fortunate to be part of this school family. They highlighted their amazing teachers, the friendships they’ve built, and even their favorite subjects to learn each day. Hearing their gratitude and pride in our school was so special.
We also recognized students who participated in Circle the State with Song — what an accomplishment! Their hard work and dedication truly shine.
And a BIG congratulations to one of our 3rd graders who received a GRIT Award — WAY TO GO! We are so proud of the perseverance, character, and determination our students show every day.
Claremont is a special place because of the people in it — and Friday was a beautiful reminder of that.

This fall, our third graders had the opportunity to visit the Will Rogers Memorial Museum, where they learned all about Will Rogers—a roper, comedian, actor, and writer who truly loved people.
Students explored his life through artifacts, famous quotes, and stories that highlighted how humor, curiosity, and caring for others can make a lasting impact. It was a fun and inspiring trip that helped students connect history to everyday kindness and reminded us all how simple acts can make a big difference.
