Coach Cross...Take 2! The students created banners, posters, and sweet cards for Coach's final walk. The students and staff know her so well that Dress Like Coach Cross Day was a breeze!

No words can express how much we will miss OUR Coach Cross! Students created a scrapbook for her retirement, we celebrated with a sweet retirement reception, and lastly, we had a Dress Like Coach Day and final walk. She has left a legacy here in Cougar Nation that will always be remembered. We love you, Coach Cross!

Mrs. Brooks is amazing! She is so deserving of this honor!

In honor of Teacher Appreciation Month, we’re celebrating a school 2024 Teacher of the Year each day! Special Education teacher Kari Brooks, an 18-year educator, is the Teacher of the Year for Clayton Elementary School!

“Mrs. Brooks is passionate about educating today’s children,” a colleague shared. “This is evident watching her engage with her students. Not only does she fulfill the requirements of a teacher, but she also capitalizes on the moments. She connects with the heart of every student, building a lasting rapport that can be seen long after the students exit her class. No matter the challenge each child faces, she accepts, adapts and calls every child to reach his or her potential. As one current student stated, ‘Mrs. Brooks is always supportive. When something unhappy happens, or somebody’s not having a good day at school, she talks with them and makes them feel comforted and not alone.’”
