🎃👻 HALLOWEEN AT THE ADMIN BUILDING! 👻🎃
Things looked a little different around the Clark-Pleasant Admin Building today! 😂
Big Bird stopped by, Thing 1 and Thing 2 were causing trouble, a few familiar Sesame Street faces made an appearance, Run-DMC showed up, and the IEP Rockers kicked off their world tour right here at CPCSC! 🎸🤘
Apparently, when our Admin Building staff commits to Halloween, they COMMIT. 😂
We spend a lot of time working together, solving problems and supporting our schools—but we also think it's pretty important to have a little fun together along the way. 🧡💙
Take a look at some of today's costumes and tell us: Which one is your favorite? 🎃👇
Happy Halloween from the Clark-Pleasant Admin Building! 🕸️🍬

👮♂️ NEARLY 30 LAW ENFORCEMENT & SCHOOL SAFETY LEADERS — ONE TABLE, ONE SHARED PURPOSE.
Yesterday, the Clark-Pleasant Police Department welcomed nearly 30 law enforcement and school safety leaders from multiple school corporations and municipalities to Whiteland for a School-Based Law Enforcement Police Chiefs Roundtable organized by CPPD Chief Chad Pryce.
And today, on National First Responders Day, it feels especially fitting to share what happened around that table.
Throughout the morning, participants shared experiences, talked about what's working in their schools and communities, discussed challenges facing school-based law enforcement, and exchanged ideas and practices they can take back to the students and communities they serve.
The conversations continued over lunch, with even more opportunities for networking, relationship-building and collaboration.
We are proud of Chief Pryce for bringing these leaders together and creating a space where people doing this important work could learn from one another.
First responders serve their communities in so many ways. We see them respond when help is needed, but much of their work happens long before an emergency — through preparation, relationships, collaboration and a willingness to learn from one another.
So today, on National First Responders Day, we not only thank our CPPD officers and first responders everywhere for their service — we also celebrate the leadership and collaboration happening behind the scenes to make our schools and communities stronger.
Stronger relationships. Shared knowledge. Safer schools and communities. 🧡💙

💙🧡 MEET OUR AMBASSADORS: ELIZABETH BEA
We're continuing to introduce you to the members of our 2026–27 Clark-Pleasant Ambassador Academy, and today we're featuring another parent who has already found a way to get involved in her children's school community!
Elizabeth Bea is a mom of two—ages 10 and 5—and both of her children attend Ray Crowe Elementary School, where she also serves as PTO Treasurer.
Elizabeth has been married to her husband for 14 years and has spent more than 16 years with Simon Property Group, where she currently works as an EV Project Coordinator.
So, why Ambassador Academy?
For Elizabeth, it starts with something pretty simple: she loves her schools and her community.
“I love our schools and community. I'm passionate about making a positive impact in the kids and surrounding communities.”
She joined Ambassador Academy because she wants to learn more about Clark-Pleasant and better understand the work happening throughout the district to support students, families and the larger community.
One of the things Elizabeth already appreciates most about Clark-Pleasant is how much people care about one another and their community—and the priority placed on keeping our schools safe.
As a parent and PTO leader, she already sees Clark-Pleasant through the lens of her own children's elementary school. Ambassador Academy gives her an opportunity to broaden that view—to go behind the scenes, meet people from throughout the corporation and learn more about how all the pieces of a school district work together.
And when she's not working, volunteering with the PTO or keeping up with her family, you might find Elizabeth crocheting or playing Stardew Valley. She's currently working on her fifth crocheted blanket! 🧶
A couple more fun facts? Elizabeth grew up as one of six siblings and has never broken a bone!
We're excited to have another involved Ray Crowe parent bringing her curiosity, community spirit and perspective to this year's cohort.

🐰🌾 BIG WARRIORS TEACHING OUR LITTLE WARRIORS! 💙🧡
Some of the best learning happens when our students get the chance to learn from each other!
Today, Whiteland FFA members Jack Kelsay and Miklo Ortiz visited Ms. Shelby Klase’s preschool class to talk about farming, agriculture, animals and what it means to be part of FFA.
And these two showed just how different the path into agriculture can look!
🚜 For Jack, farming has always been part of life. He is the seventh generation of his family to farm the same land and grew up surrounded by agriculture and animals.
🌱 For Miklo, agriculture was something he discovered in high school. He decided to try some ag classes, found a community and group of people he loved, and has now been involved in FFA for about two years. He even brought along his award-winning show rabbit so the preschoolers could meet—and, of course, pet—a real animal!
What impressed us most was watching Jack and Miklo interact with our youngest Warriors. They did a fantastic job explaining big ideas in a way preschoolers could understand, answering their questions and making sure everyone felt comfortable meeting their furry visitor.
And our preschoolers were pretty impressive, too! They listened, sat patiently, asked questions and soaked up everything our high school students had to share.
We love seeing connections like this happen across Clark-Pleasant—from preschool all the way through high school. Our older students get the opportunity to lead, and our youngest students get to see some of the possibilities waiting for them as they grow.
And if there happens to be an adorable rabbit involved? Even better. 🐰💙🧡
Great job, Jack and Miklo—and thank you for sharing FFA with our youngest Warriors! 🌾

🧡💙 WARRIOR’S RETURN | From Student to Designer
She once walked the halls of Whiteland Community High School as a student. Today, she’s helping design them for the next generation of Warriors.
Amber Drenth, WCHS Class of 2015, is an interior designer with Lancer + Associates and part of the team working on the transformation of her former high school.
During her time at WCHS, Amber was a proud Marching Warrior. She says being part of the band gave her a close-knit community — one she remains connected to today — while her experiences in the classroom helped give her the freedom to explore what she wanted to do next.
By her junior and senior years, Amber knew she wanted a career involving buildings, but she wasn't quite sure what that would look like. She initially considered architecture before discovering that her real passion was creating the spaces inside buildings — environments that people experience every day and that can enhance their well-being.
That eventually led her to a career in interior design and, ultimately, back home.
When Amber interviewed with Lancer + Associates and learned about the WCHS project, there was one project in particular she was hoping she'd get to work on.
“Secretly, I was hoping I would get the job just to work on my old high school because I thought it would be so cool!”
Now, Amber isn't simply watching her former high school change. She's helping shape that change.
“I am honored that I got to invest back into my community and give something back to the students that will hopefully allow them to experience learning, community, and Whiteland in a whole new way.”
From Marching Warrior to interior designer — and from WCHS student to someone helping create the WCHS of the future — we think that's a pretty special Warrior's Return. 🧡💙

📚🏀 LOOK WHO THE PACERS ARE CELEBRATING! 🏀📚
We love seeing our Pleasant Crossing Elementary third graders featured by Pacers Sports & Entertainment! 🧡💙
Our Warriors earned a FIRST-PLACE finish in the first quarter of the Team Up for Literacy 4 Quarters of Reading Challenge, logging the most reading minutes during September! 📖🏆
That big accomplishment earned a pretty incredible celebration with Pacers Sports & Entertainment and Indiana Sports Corp — and we couldn't be prouder of our students for putting in the time and turning those pages!
Way to represent Pleasant Crossing and Clark-Pleasant, Warriors! 👏
And a huge thank you to Pacers Sports & Entertainment and Indiana Sports Corp for making their achievement so special!

🏆 HISTORY MADE! WHITELAND CROSS COUNTRY IS HEADED TO STATE! 🧡💙
What a weekend for our Whiteland Warriors!
For the FIRST TIME IN PROGRAM HISTORY, the WCHS Girls Cross Country team is headed to the IHSAA State Championships — and they’re going as REGIONAL CHAMPIONS! 🏆
Competing against 25 teams at IHSAA Regional Championship #4 in Columbus, the Warriors delivered an incredible performance to capture the first Regional Championship in WCHS girls cross-country history.
And they did it in impressive fashion — every member of the varsity team ran a personal record!
🔥 Gabi Goedeker led the Warriors with a 5th-place finish in 17:56, setting a NEW WCHS GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY PROGRAM RECORD!
She was followed closely by:
🧡 Lena Shipp — 6th, 17:59 PR
💙 Abby Boner — 8th, 18:01 PR
🧡 Eden Muhlhauser — 31st, 19:03 PR
💙 Claire Proctor — 44th, 19:39 PR
🧡 Audrey Spoonamore — 63rd, 20:00 PR
💙 Rozlin Tomamichel — 88th, 20:43 PR
But the history-making weekend didn’t stop there!
🏃 Colton Watson is headed to STATE!
Colton finished 3rd overall at Regionals with an outstanding time of 15:06, just seven seconds shy of the WCHS program record.
The Warrior boys finished 12th overall, with Christian Rose also turning in a huge performance and PR of 16:00, narrowly missing an individual State qualification.
👏 We are incredibly proud of ALL of our Warrior runners and everything they have accomplished this season.
NEXT STOP: TERRE HAUTE!
For the first time in school history, our WCHS Girls Cross Country team will compete together at the IHSAA State Championships, while Colton Watson will represent Whiteland individually in the boys race.
Let’s show them some WARRIOR PRIDE as they head to STATE! 🧡💙
CONGRATULATIONS, WARRIORS!

🌟 WHITELAND FFA SHINES ON THE NATIONAL STAGE! 🌟
Our Whiteland FFA students have a lot to celebrate after an incredible experience at the National FFA Convention!
🏆 Whiteland FFA was recognized as a National 3-Star Chapter — the highest ranking an FFA chapter can receive! Miklo Ortiz and Addie Corn proudly accepted the award, which places Whiteland FFA among the top 5% of FFA chapters in the nation!
👏 Jack Kelsay also represented Whiteland with an outstanding performance, earning a Silver Ranking in the National Employment Skills Competition!
And the experience went far beyond the awards. Twenty-two Whiteland FFA members spent two days exploring the nation’s largest agricultural expo and career fair, learning about future opportunities and connecting with FFA members from across the country.
We are incredibly proud of these Warriors for representing Whiteland on the national stage and showing just how strong our FFA program is.

🧡💙 Our 2026 United Way Campaign is underway!
This year's theme is Changing Lives Beyond the Classroom, and we're asking our Clark-Pleasant family to come together to support United Way and the people it serves throughout our community.
CPCSC employees who give at least $2 per pay period — or make a $48 one-time donation — will be entered to win one of TWO $500 VISA gift cards, generously sponsored by Lancer Associates and Skillman Corporation!
And this year, we've added a little friendly competition. 🥶
Clark-Pleasant is going head-to-head with Franklin Community Schools to see which district can raise the most for United Way.
The stakes? The superintendent whose district raises the LEAST has to take a COLD PLUNGE at halftime of the Whiteland vs. Franklin basketball game on January 22! 🏀
So, Warriors, let's give back, support our community, AND keep Dr. Edsell warm and dry!
Changing lives. Winning gift cards. Saving Dr. Edsell from the cold plunge. Sounds like a win-win-win to us. 🧡💙

We love seeing our Warriors take what inspired them at Whiteland and use it to make a difference for the next generation!
Congratulations to Whiteland Community High School Class of 2018 alumna Kaylea Dominguez, who has been named one of just three recipients of the 2026 American Civic Education Teacher Awards!
Now a fifth-grade teacher at Kitley Intermediate School in Franklin Township Community School Corporation, Kaylea is being recognized for the creative ways she brings civics and government to life for her students — from mock elections and legislative simulations to a U.S. history wax museum.
And we especially loved learning that part of Kaylea’s passion for government began right here at WCHS. She shared with the Daily Journal that a government teacher during her senior year made the subject relatable and fun and helped spark the passion she now brings to her own classroom.
What a wonderful reminder of the lasting impact educators can have — and how one Warrior can inspire another to go out and make a difference. 🧡💙
Congratulations, Kaylea! We are proud to call you a Warrior!

💙🧡 MEET OUR AMBASSADORS: RANDY MASON
We're continuing to introduce you to the members of our 2026–27 Clark-Pleasant Ambassador Academy, and today we'd like you to meet Randy Mason!
Randy is a mom, social work professional and someone who cares deeply about children and families. She has spent nearly 10 years working in social work and currently supervises a youth-focused program—a role that has shown her firsthand what can happen when schools, families and community organizations work together.
Her connection to Clark-Pleasant is also personal. Randy is the parent of a second grader at Whiteland Elementary School and serves on the WES PTO Board.
So, why Ambassador Academy?
Randy wants to better understand how Clark-Pleasant works, learn more about the decisions being made behind the scenes and become an even more informed and engaged parent.
One thing she already appreciates is the sense of safety and support her family has experienced at Whiteland Elementary.
Randy's daughter has food allergies, and from the time she started kindergarten, Randy says school staff have worked with their family to make sure she is safe and included.
“I feel comfortable communicating with them and have found that most of them are very open to accommodation.”
Her experience has also given Randy something specific she is interested in learning more about this year: school food services and how our schools can continue becoming more allergy-aware.
But she's looking forward to much more than that. Randy wants to understand the different systems that affect Clark-Pleasant families and, ultimately, find places where she can contribute.
And if Randy cares about something, there's a good chance she's going to give it her all! 😊
Between keeping up with her daughter's dance and softball activities, Randy says she loves bringing ideas to life and finding ways to make experiences memorable and people feel special—even when those ideas occasionally create a little more work for herself!
That willingness to get involved is already evident through her work, her PTO service and now her decision to join Ambassador Academy.
We're excited to have Randy bringing her perspective as a parent, social work professional and active school volunteer to this year's cohort.

💙🧡 MEET OUR AMBASSADORS: TAYLOR ADAMS
We're continuing to introduce you to the members of our 2026–27 Clark-Pleasant Ambassador Academy, and today we'd like you to meet Taylor Adams!
Taylor is a mom of two young children, a full-time registered nurse working in home health and a substitute nurse for Clark-Pleasant when there is a need. She moved to Central Indiana in 2017 and has called the Clark-Pleasant community home ever since.
Her family's school journey is really just beginning. Taylor's daughter attended Pre-K at Whiteland Elementary School last year and is now a kindergartner there, while her fiancé is a 2014 Whiteland graduate.
That means Taylor is getting to experience Clark-Pleasant from a couple of different perspectives—as a parent sending her own child to school and as a nurse occasionally caring for students throughout the district.
And one thing has stood out to her from the beginning: how personal that experience has felt.
“I especially appreciate that my daughter is treated as more than just another student. She is greeted with genuine excitement, and the staff know her name and understand her story.”
Taylor says that connection gives her a tremendous sense of comfort and peace when she drops her daughter off each morning.
So, why Ambassador Academy?
Taylor wants to understand more of what parents don't necessarily see—the thought that goes into decisions, the challenges facing a school corporation and the many moving pieces involved in providing students with a quality education.
She's particularly interested in learning about school funding and finances, the operating referendum, and how Clark-Pleasant is planning for future growth as new housing and families continue to come into the community.
For Taylor, the goal isn't simply to know more. She wants that knowledge to help her become a more informed and engaged member of her school community.
And now for something you probably won't learn at an Ambassador Academy meeting...
Taylor breeds hedgehogs! 🦔
Not just any hedgehogs, either—pedigreed hedgehogs with papers! She has sold them to families in several states, including Alaska and Texas, and says that if you know someone locally who owns a hedgehog, there's a pretty good chance it came from her.
Hedgehogs have even become something of a signature for Taylor and her daughter, and Taylor says she almost always has something hedgehog-related with her.
So this year, Ambassador Academy has its very own nurse, curious parent and, as Taylor jokingly puts it, “local hedgehog dealer.” 🦔😂
We're excited to have Taylor asking questions, learning more about the district her family calls home and bringing both her parent and healthcare perspectives to this year's cohort.
👋 Welcome to Ambassador Academy, Taylor!

🎓 Did you know WCHS students can earn up to 60 college credits while still in high school?
Last month, our Whiteland Community High School Early College students came together for their Early College Seminar Kickoff, bringing together all three current cohorts — freshmen, sophomores and juniors!
Students enjoyed some friendly trivia while learning more about the opportunities available through Early College.
Through our partnership with Ivy Tech Community College, WCHS students can earn college credit while still in high school and work toward:
🎓 Indiana College Core (ICC) — 30 college credits
🎓 Associate Degree — 60 college credits
That means our Warriors have the opportunity to graduate from WCHS with not only their high school diploma, but also a significant head start on college — saving both time and money as they prepare for what comes next.
We’re excited to watch these students continue their Early College journey! 🧡💙

Happy National School Lunch Week!
🧡💙 Proud of the Education. Proud of Our People. Proud to Be Warriors.
Our 2026 ILEARN results give us another reason to be proud of the education our students receive at Clark-Pleasant — and of the people who make it possible.
Students scored above the Indiana state average in both English Language Arts and Math at every grade level, 3–8. That’s 12 out of 12 grade-level and subject-area comparisons! 🎉
Take a look at the graphic to see the results across our district and some of the standout performances from our individual schools.
Behind every percentage are students working hard, teachers and staff committed to helping them grow, and families supporting learning at home.
Strong schools. Strong students. A community that believes in both.
It’s a great day to be a Warrior! 🧡💙
