🏫 Six weeks from today, we will welcome all our students back into our halls! Although we are enjoying the opportunity to recharge, we have not stopped planning. In the spirit of planning, we have created a BACK-TO-SCHOOL page on our website where you can find "all the things" in one place.
We still need to work out a few details, but we will update the webpage weekly as those decisions are made.

🌟 WE'VE GOT TALENT!🌟
This year’s Talent Show was an absolute hit! From powerhouse vocals 🎤 and show-stopping dance moves 💃🕺 to laugh-out-loud skits 🎭, our students lit up the stage with creativity and confidence.
It felt like our very own mini-Broadway—and they brought the house down! 👏
Huge congrats to all of our amazing performers—we're so proud of you!

🎨 Our summer Art Camp was full of creativity, color, and lots of messy hands! From bold prints 🖨️ to clay creations 🏺 and custom tie-dye 👕, these artists jumped right in and brought their ideas to life. They left with art they can be proud of — and maybe a few new favorite ways to get creative. 🎨✨ We can’t wait to see where their imagination takes them next!
🎨 After years of sharing her creativity, passion, and heart with Catalayah Elementary, Mrs. Jen Nelson-Coffey is officially retiring. 🎨 Her art room has been more than just a place for creativity — it’s been a space where students felt seen, encouraged, and empowered to grow. Thank you, Mrs. Coffey, for the lasting impact you’ve made on our students and our Fine Arts family. Happy Retirement! 💛
📅 The Robson PAC will be closed June 21st–29th for annual floor waxing and maintenance. We’ll reopen and resume regular summer hours on Monday, June 30th. Thanks for your understanding as we take care of the space!
Class of 2025 graduate Bryce Rhoades is spending his summer exploring Europe—and taking his love for the arts along with him! 🎨🎶 From admiring the architecture of Neuschwanstein Castle, to standing in front of the Colosseum, Bryce is seeing the kind of iconic art, music, and history that have inspired creatives for centuries. What a way to celebrate graduation! ✈️🌍

Two Tulsa Drillers games, two standout National Anthem performances by Claremore students! ⚾️ CHS senior Bryce Rhoades was recently invited to perform a solo on his tuba—an incredible honor and a rare moment to hear the anthem played solo on that instrument in front of a packed stadium. 🎺 On a different night, the Westside Honor Choir, made up of 4th and 5th graders and led by Mr. Levesque, took the field to sing the anthem after months of preparation and hard work. 🎶 We’re so proud of both groups for representing Claremore with talent and dedication! 👏🦓 #CPSZebraPride
