Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, proudly recognized by Clark Pleasant Community Schools, provides a wonderful opportunity for our community to celebrate the diverse experiences and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to American society. This month-long celebration, established in 1990 by President George H. W. Bush, encourages us to honor their resilience, achievements, and rich cultural heritage. Here are ways families can commemorate this special month: - Explore Asian American and Pacific Islander history through books, documentaries, or online resources. - Attend local cultural events or virtual celebrations that showcase Asian American and Pacific Islander traditions, art, and music. - Try new foods by cooking traditional Asian American and Pacific Islander recipes at home or dining at local restaurants specializing in these cuisines. - Share stories, traditions, and experiences from Asian American and Pacific Islander cultures with family and friends. - Support local businesses owned by members of Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. Let’s come together as a community to celebrate diversity and promote greater understanding and appreciation for the multicultural tapestry of America.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month! #MHAM2024 #MentalHealthMatters

I know the end of the school year is crazy for everyone, but as you attend all the events and programs, remember most of these things are possible because of fundraising efforts and volunteers. In order for us to keep doing all of this, we have to continue to raise funds. What better way to do that then a fun night of dinner and games! Join us for a good time while helping us raise money to continue to support our schools! https://clarkpleasanteducationfoundation.networkforgood.c...

Don't Forget! Coffee with the Superintendent takes place this morning at 9:30 am at the JCPL, Clark-Pleasant Branch. Dr. Edsell will be discussing future High School Diploma changes!!! Hope to see you there.

Mid-State Champs! Last night, our Unified Track and Field team won the Mid-State Conference championship hosted by Franklin! In only its second year of existence, our Unified team has grown to over 50 students, and truly is one of the best things that the IHSAA offers! Unified sports are a collaboration between the IHSAA and the Special Olympics that promotes servant leadership among student athletes while changing their lives as well as the lives of those with intellectual disabilities. I highly recommend that you make it a point to come to one of our home Unified Track meets (5/9 or 5/13) and support these student-athletes, you will be so glad you did!
