The talents and dedication of our teachers and staff are clearly evident as we work to engage, excite and educate nearly 500 Clinton students. Establishing a sound foundation for all our students based on our district goals and 21st century skills is our primary focus along with working collaboratively in a professional learning community.
Sharing our similarities while celebrating our differences is one of the many qualities that make our Clinton Community so special. We are so very fortunate to be teaching and learning with students from at least twenty-five different nations who speak ten different languages. We truly are a global community and many of our events showcase this international flair.
From kindergarten through fifth grade our students model respect, responsibility, caring, honesty and citizenship for each other. We pride ourselves in empowering our students to be leaders who actively influence Clinton School and the community.
Creativity abounds in our classrooms and hallways as our students showcase their artistic, musical, technological, athletic, dancing and acting talents. As recipients of several art grants, we value and encourage the arts in education and strive to keep our students healthy and fit.
Our Clinton community continues to be at the forefront of environmental awareness in our reusing and recycling efforts. We work daily with our students to model and instill the importance of caring for this planet and all who share it.
This is a very special community and Clinton School is all the better for it.
