CPCSC will be on a 2-Hour Delay Tomorrow, Monday, December 15th
Due to cold temperatures and poor road conditions, Clark-Pleasant Community Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay. Additional details may be shared by your child’s school or teacher.
Clark-Pleasant Community Schools will be CLOSED today, Friday, December 12th, due to inclement weather. Today will be a SYNCHRONOUS (LIVE) eLearning Day
As a reminder, the State of Indiana only allows schools to use three asynchronous e-learning days in which students log-in on their own and complete work without access to a teacher. We have utilized those days and now switch to "Synchronous (live) Learning". This means that your child will need to log-in to join the live sessions during the day. Information will be sent out by each school with more information about schedules and times.
During his visit, Korman spoke to students in grade-level sessions, discussing how he began writing at a young age and how his ideas grow into completed novels. Students had the opportunity to participate in Q&A sessions and hear behind-the-scenes details about some of their favorite characters and storylines. Mr. Korman
Korman’s visit was a memorable and inspiring experience for Clark-Pleasant Middle School, reinforcing the school’s commitment to fostering a love of reading and writing.

What does it take to start a business in middle school? Clark-Pleasant Middle School students got the inside scoop today from someone who knows exactly what that looks like.
As part of College & Career Week, Ms. Shannon Proctor’s 7th grade computer science class welcomed Whiteland Community High School senior, Troy Merchant, co-owner of Merchant Brothers Cotton Candy (which also serves Hershey’s Ice Cream.)
Troy and his brother started their business back in 2021—when he was in 8th grade and his brother was in 6th—after buying an industrial cotton candy machine at an auction for just $200 (worth about $2,000!). Since then, they’ve grown their business, created a logo, built a model, solved real-world problems, and learned the ins and outs of being young entrepreneurs.
Today, Troy shared that journey with our students—answering questions, sharing stories, and even selling cotton candy and ice cream right in the classroom.
This week, students also heard from other local entrepreneurs:
✨ Brad Goedecker – Owner of Rascal’s Fun Zone
✨ Tracy Bohler – Owner of Farm Girl Mercantile
✨ Tim Rinehold – Principal at CPMS & Owner of Rinehold Honey
And next week, the learning continues with food truck vendors!
Through this unit, students aren’t just hearing stories—they’re living them. They’re challenged to create their own mobile businesses: designing logos, writing business plans, budgeting, building websites, and more.
A huge congratulations to Mrs. Proctor for designing such a creative, hands-on way to bring real-world learning into the classroom. Her dedication is giving students the chance to connect with local entrepreneurs, think critically, and imagine what’s possible for their own futures.
Congratulations to Patty Evans, our incredible Clark-Pleasant Middle School science teacher, on being awarded a STEM Grant through the Community Career + Education Forum (CCEF), sponsored by Endress+Hauser!
A veteran of 36 years in the classroom, Mrs. Evans received $1,575 for her project “Light Explorers – Engineering and Design in Action.” With nearly 170 students each day, she is giving every student the opportunity to explore hands-on learning with mirrors, lenses, and prisms to manipulate and bend light in creative ways.
Through this project, students will apply the Engineering Design Process to brainstorm, test, and refine experiments—connecting physical science concepts to real-world applications like optics, cameras, and telescopes. By the end, they’ll demonstrate their understanding of reflection, refraction, and light properties while sharing their findings through engaging presentations.
Huge thank-you to Endress+Hauser and congratulations to Patty Evans for turning great ideas into real-world lessons that inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers!
