Clinton Public Schools

Thank you to our amazing seniors and all the hard work, dedication, and memories you’ve given to Clinton Public Schools! 💛 Once a Red Tornado, Always a Red Tornado! 🌪️ #SeniorNight #ClassOf2026 #BuildingChampions #cpsreds

Once a Red Tornado, Always a Red Tornado felt especially true during a recent check presentation. Harold Miskel’s former Red Tornado Football teammates came together to donate $500 in his memory. Duane Blankenship, Don Finkenbinder, Jim Penner, Jack Smalley, and Charlie Strong wanted to honor a friend who made a lasting mark on their lives. 🌪️ Their gift will help fund equipment for our players, but it also reminded us how strong those Red Tornado ties really are. 🏈

Harold’s influence is still felt, and today’s gesture showed just how much he meant to the people who played beside him. 💛

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. 🐾

Nance Elementary turned the gym into a burst of color last Friday as they brought their own “Balloons Over Broadway” parade to life. 🎈

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. 💛
