Please help us recognize our most recent Educator of the Game, Mrs. Summer Morgan. She was recommended by students who say she holds them accountable while caring for them through even the toughest moments.

Mrs. Morgan has dedicated 20 years to teaching and consistently goes above and beyond for her students, personally creating marching choreography and writing individual parts to ensure every musician is both challenged and supported. She earned her National Board Certification in 2024 and was named the 2019 CHS Teacher of the Year.

Thank you, Mrs. Morgan, for the heart, time, and passion you pour into Clinton students. 👏🎶

The newest NASP state rankings are out, and Clinton Archery is making a statement. Both teams are now in the top 10 with CHS ranked 5th and CMS right behind at 6th. 🎯

The CHS Archery team has competed in six tournaments this season, earning three first-place and three third-place finishes in the High School Team Division. Individually, Evan Hunter has two third-place, two second-place, and one first-place finish. Julian Hayes has earned a third and a first, while Lexi Vela has collected one third, one second, and two first-place finishes.

At the Ninnekah tournament, Karsten Moore led CMS scoring and finished 5th in the middle school boys division with a new personal best of 278. Big milestones were also hit by Payson Panana, Joseph Ernst, Jaeden Tortoledo, Hunter Suchite, Cassi Ray, Landon Jaggers, and Adriana Whiteskunk, all shooting new personal bests.

This group has shown tremendous growth over the past few weeks, and it paid off with a 3rd place finish in a very competitive middle school team division. Great work, Clinton Archery. 🏹
