🎓✨ Today, several of our elementary schools hosted Career Day events, and we had the opportunity to stop by Whiteland Elementary School to see the excitement firsthand!
Students had the chance to learn from an incredible variety of professionals, including staff from the Harlem Wizards 🏀, detectives 🚔, doctors 🩺, nurses 💉, firefighters and paramedics 🚒, a real estate agent and motorcycle racer 🏡🏍️, a banquet chef from the JW Marriott Indianapolis 👨🍳, lawyers ⚖️, CPR instructors ❤️, an Indiana High School Athletic Association official 🏅, the WCHS principal 🎓, animal groomers 🐶, members of the Army 🇺🇸, insurance agents 📋, and many more!
I even had the opportunity, as the Communications Coordinator for the corporation, to present to a few classes as well and share what goes into telling the stories of our students, staff, and schools every day 📸💻🎤.
One of the best parts of the day was hearing students share what they loved most about Career Day. Many said their favorite part was seeing their own family members — and their classmates’ family members — presenting and learning more about all the different career paths available to them. 💙🧡
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who took time out of their day to speak with our students and inspire the next generation. We appreciate each and every one of you! 👏✨

Last night at the Clark-Pleasant Middle School Band Concert, we celebrated a truly special moment as Mr. Tim Rinehold was awarded the 2026 ISSMA Distinguished Service Award. 🎶🏆
The evening was also bittersweet as it marked the final middle school band concert for longtime CPMS Band Director Katy Briel, who is taking on a new role with ISSMA as the Instrumental Education Director after 20 years at CPMS. While we are excited for this incredible next chapter in her career, she will be greatly missed by the CPMS family. 💙
For the past 19 years as principal of CPMS, Mr. Rinehold has been an unwavering supporter of music, the arts, and student success. Through every challenge and every achievement, he made sure our music department had the resources, encouragement, and support needed to grow and thrive.
He has continuously promoted the success of our students to our school board and community through social media, newsletters, and countless conversations celebrating the incredible things happening at CPMS. His willingness to support our music programs is a huge reason why we have been able to host ISSMA events and continue earning the ISSMA All Music Award for our school community year after year.
As Mr. Rinehold retires at the end of this school year, this award serves as a heartfelt thank you for all he has done for our students, staff, and music programs throughout the last 19 years. He has built a foundation and legacy of excellence in music and the arts that will continue not only at CPMS, but throughout the entire Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation.
Congratulations, Mr. Rinehold, and thank you for the lasting impact you have made on generations of students. 💙

“Teamwork makes the dream work!” That was certainly true this last week in the Whiteland Community High School Nutrition Pathway classrooms!
Our students shared their appreciation for teachers while also meeting important career and classroom standards. Students created a special Teacher Appreciation Lunch experience by offering teachers a menu to choose from and then planning, preparing, and delivering the meals themselves.
Teachers selected an entrée, two housemade side dishes, freshly made dressing, and an irresistible dessert!
Through this project, students demonstrated real-world career skills including time management, communication, leadership, teamwork, and work ethic. They also met standards for planning and preparing nutritionally sound meals, including accommodations for specialty diets, allergies, and calorie and macro goals.
We love seeing our students use their talents and skills to serve others while preparing for future careers. Great job to our Nutrition Pathway students and staff for making this such a meaningful experience!

Sometimes the most important step is simply listening.
Taking time to truly hear the concerns of a young person can help them feel safe, seen, and understood. That sense of safety can make all the difference in whether they open up about what they’re experiencing.

Parents and caregivers are often the first to notice when something feels different.
Changes in mood, sleep, appetite, or behavior can be early signs that a young person may need extra support. These shifts can impact how they feel, act, and connect with others—so it’s important to pay attention.
If something doesn’t seem right, trust your instincts and start the conversation. You don’t have to navigate it alone.
