Today at the CCOSA (Cooperative Council for Oklahoma School Administration) Conference, Clinton High School and GEAR UP staff had the opportunity to share the impact of our required Senior Capstone course and how it is preparing students for life beyond graduation. 🎓🌪️
Created in response to full senior schedules, increased concurrent enrollment, and the need to centralize important graduation requirements, Senior Capstone ensures every senior completes essential milestones, including FAFSA, Personal Financial Literacy, ICAP, Oklahoma’s Promise, CPR certification, and a community volunteer service project.
The course also focuses heavily on postsecondary readiness through resumes, mock interviews, college visits, College App Week, scholarship essays, and interview preparation. Through partnerships like GEAR UP, students are challenged to grow in personal responsibility, civic engagement, and leadership while embracing the message: “You’re 18; it’s your responsibility.”
We are proud to see the positive impact this course is having as more students pursue college opportunities and graduate better prepared for their future.
It's a great day to be a Red Tornado! 🌪️

Our CHS AP Psychology students recently completed a project focused on gratitude and its impact on mental health.
As part of the project, CHS students and staff were invited to share what gratitude means to them, who or what they’re thankful for, and even inspirational quotes and songs that bring encouragement and motivation.
Those responses came together to create this incredible Gratitude Wall, a powerful reminder of the importance of appreciation, kindness, and connection in our daily lives. 💛

Recently, Southwest Elementary 4th grade students had an unforgettable day exploring, discovering, and learning at Science Museum Oklahoma! 🔬🧪🚀
From hands-on exhibits to interactive experiments, students had the chance to dive into the world of science in a fun and exciting way. Field trips like these help bring classroom learning to life and inspire curiosity about the world around us.
A big thank you to Oklahoma Oil & Natural Gas for helping make this experience possible for our students! 💛
