Clinton Public Schools

Ms. Wallace’s students had a blast at their Nutrition Advisory Council (NAC) meeting with our Opaa! Food Management, Inc. Team at Southwest Elementary!

They pulled on their gloves, made their own pizza, and of course, enjoyed eating it too. 🍕 A fun mix of teamwork, learning, and delicious rewards!

Last week, BPA (Business Professionals of America) sweetened things up at CHS with an ice cream social! 🍨

Students enjoyed a fun break together while learning more about what BPA has to offer this year. A great way to kick off the season of teamwork, leadership, and service.

It's a great day to be a Red Tornado! 🌪️

Yesterday, our Southwest Elementary students joined our School Resource Officers for a K-pop Demon Hunters Words Matter presentation! 🗣️💬

They learned how to recognize threats, violence, and bullying in their school. It was a powerful reminder that words and actions both matter in building a safe, positive community. They also had a great time singing along!

Thank you Officer Wilson and Officer Whitten for helping our students understand that "We can't fix it, if we don't face it."

One of our very own Red Tornadoes, Clinton FFA sophomore Callie Griffith, joined 116 other high school juniors and seniors in Oklahoma City this week for Oklahoma Farm Bureau’s 2025 Capitol Camp! 🎉

Students spent the day stepping into the shoes of legislators—meeting with lawmakers, presenting bills in committee, debating on the House and Senate floors, and even visiting with Governor Kevin Stitt.

A big thank you to the legislators who guided students through the process and made this experience possible. Capitol Camp gives 4-H and FFA students a firsthand look at the legislative process and the chance to lead it themselves.
