Having children attend a neighborhood school has some great perks: we carpool,our kids walk and bike to school together, we call each other if we are going to be late, we have options, but see the importance of making our community stronger by staying in our cluster schools and we keep our home values up as we improve our schools.  Neighborhood schools can be a powerful component of a community!

This year we look forward to using the observatory at Clairemont High, participating in the Trimathlon at Marston Middle, and attending a wide variety of fun activities at each of the elementary schools.  Let us know what is going on at your school so we can share with the whole cluster!

We are thrilled and excited to extend a hearty welcome to Dr. Jennifer Roberson, the new principal at Clairemont High School.  Dr. Roberson will be in attendance at our September gathering, so stop by to say “Hi!”.  Check out her letter of introduction on the cluster website!
