A note from Mrs. Cureton:
Thank you all for a successful and fun week of learning! We have had a blast celebrating unity & connectedness on campus during Start with Hello week! If you haven't had a chance to check out some great moments from this week, be sure to head over to our campus Facebook page! We also had a great turnout at Open House. We appreciate your support in your student's learning this year and were so glad to see so many families last night!
We have Kona Ice day next week on Friday, September 30th. We encourage online ordering for this event to ensure that your student has their snocone paid for on Kona day. Please be on the lookout for those online ordering details coming out during the early part of next week.
Spirit Gear is now for sale! For more details, please visit the Clarkston PTA Facebook page. We will also be adding an online ordering link for spirit gear. Once we have the link, it will be posted on the campus & PTA Facebook pages and sent through campus texts/push notifications.
Our PTA supports several of the events happening on campus this year. We encourage all of our families to join the Clarkston PTA-moms, dads, aunts, uncles, and even grandparents can join! Your $7 yearly membership goes directly back into supporting Clarkston students. As a PTA member, you can choose your level of involvement-whether that’s simply paying your annual membership fee or helping PTA plan school events such as the fall carnival, field day, class parties, and other fun events on campus. Please click on the "JOIN PTA" link to join: JOIN PTA
Have a great weekend!
-Sarah Cureton, Principal

--All visitors must check in at the front office and have a valid ID with them.
--We cannot release students after 2:30pm due to dismissal procedures. If you have appointments, please make arrangements to pick up by this time or you will be asked to wait until dismissal at 3:10pm.
