Let’s finish the semester strong and enjoy every minute. ❤️🎄💚

We are cheering loudly today for our very own SRO Andrew Wilson. He was named the City of Clinton Police Department Officer of the Year, and we could not be prouder of him. 👮‍♀️🚔

Officer Wilson shows up for our students and staff every single day with steady leadership and a calm presence that makes a real difference. 💙🏫

Help us congratulate Officer Wilson on this well-deserved honor. Clinton is lucky to have him, and so are we. 🌪️👏

Clinton Public Schools was notified of a possible threat involving Clinton High School, and our local police department is actively investigating.

Families will see an increased police presence on and around the campus while that work continues. To protect the integrity of the investigation, we are unable to share additional details at this time. We will provide updates as we are able. Classes and activities will continue as scheduled.

The safety of our students and staff guides every decision we make. If you know something that could help law enforcement, please speak up and share it with the Clinton Police Department at 580.323.2323 Ext. 0. As always, you can also use the free ProtectOK app to report any suspicious activity.

Families with little ones are invited to stop by the Clinton Connections Wellness Fair today at the Frisco Center. Drop in anytime from 4:30 to 6:00pm and pick up free resources designed for children ages 0 to 5.

Sensory kits, early learning activities, and a variety of helpful tools will be available while supplies last. It’s a simple way to grab fresh ideas that support early growth and learning. 💛

Clinton Public Schools celebrated Native American Heritage Month with Native Dancers and a Drum Circle at assemblies throughout the district. Students learned about native culture, heritage, and history. #NativeAmericanHeritage #BuildingChampions #cpsreds

Hill’s Pet Nutrition wrapped our district in kindness this season by hosting a coat drive for Clinton Public Schools. Their team gathered warm coats for students across our campuses, and the generosity has already made a real difference as temperatures drop. 💛🌪️

In a month centered on gratitude, we’re especially thankful for community partners who look for ways to lift others. Hill’s showed what it means to care for people with the same heart they bring to caring for pets, and we couldn’t be more appreciative. 🐾

Families, friends, and community members are invited to come out for an evening of laughs and holiday spirit as our students take the stage. 🎄

This season always brings our gratitude into focus, and Clinton Public Schools felt that thankfulness in a big way this week. Oklahoma Farm Bureau and agent Jeff Carlisle and his staff partnered with CPS to provide 1,100 coats and hoodies for students across the district. Their generosity goes far beyond a simple donation. It wraps our kids in warmth, reassurance, and the feeling that their community cares about them. 🧥

Support like this makes a real difference in our students' lives, and we’re truly grateful for partners who choose to care in such meaningful ways. 💛

Thank you, Jeff Carlisle and Farm Bureau, for investing in our kids. 🌪️

This season of thankfulness brought a sweet moment to Mrs. Brittany Miller’s classes. Students shared what they appreciate about one another, filling posters with kind words. Mrs. Miller said her favorite part was watching students scan for their name and light up when they found what their classmates had shared. 🥰

A small activity. A big reminder of how gratitude brings people together. 💛

This season brings a special kind of gratitude, and we feel it deeply across Clinton Public Schools. Our community shows up for each other in ways that make a real impact, and today we want to highlight a recent act of generosity. 💛

K&S Tire donated $5,000 to support the CPS Food Pantry. Their gift will help keep shelves stocked and ensure students and families have what they need. We’re thankful for partners who believe in caring for our kids and lifting up our community, and we're grateful for our school resource coordinators who care for our families.

Together we make a difference. 🌪️

Jingle Bucks, cocoa, and cookies made Friday feel warm and cheerful, but the best part of the day was celebrating the people who make this place special. Stipend day gave us the perfect moment to pause and recognize our entire staff for the heart and hustle they bring every single day. 💛

We also teamed up to give back to our community’s Christmas Connection, adding a little extra joy for local families this season. 🎄🎁

Thank you CPS staff for showing what Building Champions looks like through your work, your care, and your commitment to our kids. 🌪️
