Congratulations to Josh and the entire J.T. Concrete Contractors team!
The J.T. Concrete Contractors team has completed many projects for CCSD. We always appreciate their dedication and professionalism. J.T. Concrete Contractors also donated the material and labor of the Duke Slater statue concrete/base. Josh has always been a "passionate advocate for the improvement of our community," as Jamie Schroeder-Ries, CHS Associate Principal, shared at last night's board meeting. Thank you, Josh and team!

The Royal Solar Field Update | December 2024
Site activities at The Royal Solar Field are slowing down as things get buttoned up in preparation for winter. All of the support structures and solar panels are in place, while crews will continue with wiring as weather allows. Final electrical components arrive in the spring, at which point the project will be placed into service!

Congratulations, Renae!
Eagle Heights 3rd Grade Teacher
First response cont.: "However, during Homecoming and graduation walks through Eagle Heights when my once second or third graders are now seniors in high school and they still stop to give me a hug and tell me how much of an impact I had on them is also just as rewarding. I love working with students and watching them persevere and seeing how proud they are when their hard work has paid off and they now understand something new. I value all of the families that I have had the opportunity to partner with as well. I 'get' to come to work each day but truly feel blessed to be a part of Eagle Heights and will forever cherish the many fond memories created with students, families and colleagues - my school family!"
Second response cont.: "Clinton Schools remind me of this quote, 'Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.' That belief is the Clinton Schools - we serve amazing students and families and we are successful because there are so many professionals that are committed to excellence in every way! So, again, I am SO PROUD to be a part of the Clinton Schools!"
Happy Thanksgiving Break, #CCSDFamily! Enjoy!
Reminder: Students will return on Tuesday, December 3rd.
Clinton CSD has developed a new Special Education Service Delivery Plan after convening a diverse committee and reviewing with stakeholders. Special Education Service Delivery Plans need to be reviewed and revised every five years. This plan is being shared with the community for public comment, and can be viewed here: https://5il.co/31qoy . We welcome public comments, which will be considered through December 9, 2024. Public comments may be directed to Director of Student Services, Rhea Wright, via email (rhea.wright@csdkq.org) or phone (563-243-9600 ext. 1140). We thank the public for helping the district fulfill its mission in educating ALL children to their highest level of achievement using engaging curriculum in a caring community.
As you may know, Just Like Caitlin books were donated to all Iowa 2nd graders on November 13th. So awesome!
The CHS Girls Basketball Team visited Eagle Heights, presented the books to the students and read to them!

Congratulations, Cecilia!
CMS 6th Grade Science Teacher
First response cont.: "that the first student always had comments in science that made her think more deeply about the subject. I was impressed and delighted. We spent the rest of class sharing not just what we appreciated about ourselves - but about others. This is just one example of how incredible the students are. They surprise me and their insight always makes my lessons better."
CCSD Plant Services Dept.:
Congratulations to Theresa Stahl, who retired on November 11th after 30 years and 6 months!
She has been the Head Custodian at Whittier for 23 of those years, and will miss the kids dearly. She kept a very well organized school and Whittier and Plant Services wish her the best!
She mentioned that she is looking forward to spending time with the grandkids, and that she will not miss clearing the entrances of snow in the winters.
Thanks for your dedication to the district, Theresa!
