My name is LaRonna Hurt, and I am a certified reading specialist at Will Rogers Junior High. This is my 27th year teaching, 13th year teaching for Claremore Public Schools, and my 5th year teaching reading at WRJH. I received my Bachelors and Masters from Northeastern State University. I was honored to be named district teacher of the year for Claremore Public Schools in 2015. I have been married to Jarrett Hurt for 23 years. Jarrett is the head football coach and an assistant principal for Claremore High School. We have two girls, Jayla (a freshman at Oklahoma State University) and Jarreka (a junior at CHS). I am blessed to get to do what I love everyday with amazing colleagues and students! I also enjoy spending time with family, serving at our church, attending sporting events, reading, and scrapbooking.

Veterans Day honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace. Claremore Public Schools is proud of the individuals that chose to serve our country as part of the great American military who now serve our country, our community, and our children on our campuses.
THANK YOU!
During Mrs. Smith's Middle East unit, 7th-grade Geography students will be comparing and contrasting the three predominant world religions that originated in this region. Today, the students participated in a pre-learning activity called a Gallery Walk; an activity in which they tried to guess the religion based on pictures. The classes then came together to discuss their answers.

Reading Stem Project - Mrs. Bacon and Mrs. Hurt's classes studied and read about candy corn and how it is made. They also used our GE Life Principle of the Week - Problem Solving - and worked in groups to make towers with candy corn and toothpicks. They had to collaborate, communicate, coordinate, and create.
