Homecoming Assembly at WRJH!
In Mrs. Miller's Art classes, students were assigned a word of the week. They sketched the lettering and the student chose a color for their monochromatic color scheme. They shaded each letter in a different media (one each of colored pencil, crayon, watercolor, pastel chalk, oil pastel, yarn, ribbon and fabric) and filled in the background with the colors that compliment on the color wheel. Check out our word of the week color chain!
Staff Spotlight on Mrs. Lori Lane, a new teacher to Will Rogers Junior High this year-
My name is Lori Lane. My husband Chance and I have six beautiful children that range in ages from 21 to 10. We have three daughters of our own and then 7 years ago adopted a sibling group of three, a girl and two boys to complete our family. I was born and raised in central Nebraska and to this day am a die-hard Cornhusker! My husband and I moved to Arkansas in 2000 and while there I began pursuing my degree to become a teacher. I am very blessed to be here in Claremore, Ok., teaching 6th Grade Geography at WRJH. I chose to come to WRJH because of the strong commitment and dedication CPS has in putting students first, as well as the positive and welcoming environment I see displayed throughout WRJH. I'm excited to be part of the Zebra family!

At Claremore Public Schools, we strive to create a work atmosphere for our teachers and staff that is collaborative, supportive, and stimulating. A productive learning environment for students depends on the ability of our teachers to share ideas and best practices with other educators and to have access to the most up-to-date training in the field of education. By recruiting the very best education professionals, we can be sure of the continued success of our students.
While your kids won't be in our classrooms on September 30, all of our teachers and staff will be participating in professional development workshops presented by Solution Tree. This PLC training is made possible through the GEAR UP Grant and District PD.

Staff spotlight on Mrs. James:
Kylie James, the former Miss Talbert, was born and raised in Claremore. She graduated from Oklahoma State University and began her teaching career at WRJH in 2011. Kylie taught 6th grade math and science for 5 years before getting married and moving to Texas. Kylie, and her husband, Dylan, had their daughter, Tatum, in 2018, and decided it was time to move back home. In her spare time, Kylie enjoys spending time with her family, watching sporting events, and working out. Mrs. James said she chose to come back to WRJH because she loves the energy of the students and staff, and the friendly environment!
It's BOOK FAIR time!
They may be Regional Champs, but they are not finished yet! Good luck to our cheer team as they take the mat on Saturday at ORU to compete for a STATE RING! Hope to see all our past, present, and future cheer families in the stands on Saturday and wear your #ZEBRARED and show your #CPSZEBRAPRIDE!
