Hey Zebras!
Claremore Public Schools is participating in a nationwide research initiative focused on public confidence in K-12 education. As part of the initiative, community members and parents are invited to take a brief, anonymous survey and share their perspectives on public education and our local schools.
The survey takes just 5 to 8 minutes and is open through November 8th.

These fourth graders know how to make learning ANGLE-mazing! Ms. Swindall’s class put on a fun angle song performance for the school, showing off their math skills and their confidence in front of an audience. Who knew geometry could be this catchy? We are so proud of these students for making learning fun and sharing their talents with everyone!

Twin Tuesday got a little sweeter with these three first graders rocking their matching Buc-ee’s PJs! They brought all the smiles, cozy vibes, and a whole lot of cuteness to our Tuesday.
Stop, drop, and learn! Our students had a great time learning fire safety from the Claremore firefighters. From learning how to stay safe in an emergency to meeting the heroes who help protect our community, it was an exciting and educational experience. A big thank you to the Claremore firefighters for making fire safety fun and memorable for our students!

Twin Tuesday featuring Westside administration and Central Office team! Matching T-shirts and a whole lot of Zebra Pride 🦓❤️
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.

Twin Tuesday featuring Westside's 3rd Grade Team! 3️⃣
Mrs. McGill's 5th graders recently enjoyed a special story time with a former Westside student / past student of Mrs. McGill who returned to read to a family member’s class.
Once a student sitting in these very classrooms, they came back years later to share a favorite story and their love of reading with the next generation. It was a beautiful full-circle moment—and a wonderful reminder that the Westside community stays with you long after you leave! ❤️🦓
A few pictures, a whole lot of spirit, and even more Westside Zebra pride! ❤️🦓
Our students and staff showed up and showed out all Homecoming Week. Thanks for making it so much fun!
Mark your calendars! 🗓️ The book fair is September 30th-October 9th.
📚The fair will be up and open during the parent teacher conferences on the 8th, otherwise it's only open during school hours.
