Exciting Library News for Clearmont Students & Families!

We are excited to share that Sheridan County Public Library is partnering with Clearmont K-12 to bring even more reading opportunities to our students.

Rotating Book Displays: Our school library will feature new books each month, and students will get to visit the library regularly to explore and check out titles.

Children’s Librarian Visits: Once a month, a children’s librarian from Sheridan County Public Library will be in Clearmont to work with classes, provide a short lesson on library use, and give students access to a wider variety of books.

Access to the Entire Wyoming Library Collection: Students and staff now have complete access to the Wyoming library system through inter-library loan. All fees are covered by the school, and books will be delivered to Clearmont multiple times each week.

We are thrilled about this opportunity to expand our students’ access to books and foster a lifelong love of reading.

🇺🇸 Patriots Day Ceremony 🇺🇸

This morning, our Panthers came together for a meaningful ceremony to honor and remember those impacted by the September 11 attacks.

A huge thank you to our band for their moving performance and to veteran Mike Guyer for teaching us about the significance of raising the flag. ❤️🤍💙

🧪✨ Our 7th graders turned science class into a fizz-tastic experiment today! They investigated bath bombs by separating out the ingredients to discover exactly which part causes that bubbly reaction. Lots of curiosity, lots of fizz, and lots of learning! 💥💡 #PantherScience #FizzAndLearn #SeventhGradeScientists #OneClaw

Important Information about Preschool!

🌞🦗 Before school even started, Owen spotted a praying mantis warming itself on the blacktop in the sun and quickly called other students over to take a look. The group was curious, respectful, and full of questions, sharing what they knew about mantises and their habitat. Learning doesn’t just happen in the classroom—it’s all around us! 💡🐾 #PantherClaw #Curiosity #LearningEverywhere #RespectfulLearners

🌿 Science in Action! 🌿 Our 5th and 6th graders have spent the past two weeks studying a nurse log—observing the changes, growth, and life it supports. Their detailed observations show just how much can be learned when we slow down and look closely at nature. 👏 Huge shoutout to Mrs. Buchanan for leading such an engaging and hands-on science lesson! 🐾 #PantherClaw #HandsOnLearning #FutureScientists

We’re back at it with Grindhouse! 💪 Huge thank you for investing time with our students—building confidence, discipline, and even a splash of self-defense along the way. 🥋🐾 #SixHousesOneClaw #PantherPride #StudentGrowth #Grindhouse #Confidence #Discipline #OneClaw

🐾✨ Our first graders had a messy (but oh-so-fun) first week of school! From giggles to shaving cream, they’ve already shown us that learning can be both exciting and hands-on.

🌶 Panther Claw Pepper Challenge! 🌶

This week, Mrs. Buchanan is bringing fresh, garden-grown peppers for a spicy challenge! Students and staff who want to test their taste buds can eat the peppers—one by one—until they decide they’ve had enough.

Don’t worry—participation is totally optional. If you’d prefer your child not take part in the challenge, just let us know.

Let the spice (or fun!) begin! 🌟
