Safety First! CPCSC Recognizes National Fire Prevention Month 🔥
October is National Fire Prevention Month, and the Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation is focused on ensuring our students and staff are prepared for fire emergencies.

We encourage families to continue this learning at home by:
Checking smoke alarms monthly.
Creating and practicing a home escape plan with two ways out of every room.
Designating an outside meeting place for everyone to gather.
Thank you for partnering with CPCSC to prioritize fire safety!

Fall Fest Fun at Pleasant Crossing!
What an incredible evening at Pleasant Crossing Elementary’s Fall Fest! Our courtyard was full of laughter, smiles, and all things fall fun — from face painting and games to pumpkin decorating and storytime with special guest readers (including Dr. Edsell himself!).
A huge thank-you to our amazing PCES PTO for hosting such a wonderful event, to Fresh Thyme, Kelsay Farms, and Taylor Farms for their generous donations, and to the National Honor Society students who volunteered their time to make the night a success.
We also loved seeing families enjoy our book fair grand opening, grab cozy blankets from Redeemer Bible Church, and fill up bags of food thanks to the caring donations of our staff.
It truly takes a village — and we’re so grateful for ours at Pleasant Crossing!

Good morning everyone and welcome back from what was hopefully a restful Fall Break for you!
I am thrilled to announce that the Marching Warriors had some wonderful performances over Fall Break.
On Oct 11th we hosted the ISSMA Scholastic Prelims/Open Invitational in which the Marching Warriors performed and earned a GOLD rating "With Distinction" in Music, Visual, and General Effect.
This last Saturday the Marching Warriors competed in the ISSMA Regionals at Center Grove High School. They performed beautifully and once again received a GOLD rating and once qualified as ISSMA SEMI-STATE FINALISTS!! This is the 15th time the band has earned this honor and we are very proud of them and this accomplishment!

October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and the Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation is committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment where every student feels valued.
Bullying is never acceptable. This month, we renew our focus on prevention, education, and intervention across all our schools. We encourage our entire community—students, staff, and families—to take an active role:
Speak Up: Be an Upstander, not a bystander. Report bullying immediately to a teacher, counselor, or administrator.
Be Kind: Choose empathy, inclusion, and compassion every day.
Reach Out: If you or someone you know needs support, please utilize the resources available at your school.
Let's work together to ensure that every student at CPCSC is treated with dignity and respect.

Celebrating Diverse Learners: National Learning Disabilities Month
October is National Learning Disabilities (LD) Month, a time to raise awareness and promote understanding of the challenges and strengths of students with learning disabilities.
At Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation (CPCSC), we believe every student has unique talents and the potential to succeed. LD is not a reflection of intelligence; it simply means a student learns differently.
This month, we celebrate the determination, creativity, and success of our diverse learners and commit to fostering inclusive environments where every student receives the individualized support they need to thrive.
Let's work together to shine a light on LD and champion all our students!

Building the Future: Celebrating Careers in Construction Month! 🛠️🏗️
October is Careers in Construction Month, a time to shine a spotlight on the high-demand, high-wage career paths in the skilled trades!

Job Security: The demand for skilled workers in fields like carpentry, electrical, welding, and plumbing is consistently high.
Hands-On Work: A rewarding career where you can see the tangible results of your efforts every day.
The Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation is proud to offer CTE programs that give our students a head start in these essential fields. We encourage all students to explore the trades and literally build their future!
