Clearview Elementary School: Celebrations

Clearview Elementary School became not only a Spanish Immersion school, but also a Spanish Magnet School. Every child at Clearview was exposed to the Spanish Language and culture thanks to the addition of a Spanish Teacher for their English program children. They were the recipients of a fishing grant that was intertwined throughout the school year. They began their Community Classes and had their first ever flag football after school program. A kick off was held for the new First Responders Tribute, which was funded by the Sherburne County Sheriff's Department. Noon hour programs were started, which included Clean Sweep Award, Noon Hour Advisory Committee, and Wall of Caring. A Fall Fun Day included a fun run, football game and omelet breakfast thanks to the help of our friends at the Clearwater Legion. Clearview began the Knowledge Bowl program for the year. They welcomed Veterans to morning and evening Veterans Day celebrations. A Family Fun Night and Book Fair was held. Clearview is a part of the Sherburne County "Kids Choice Program" for their Fifth Grade students. They had Perrin Boyd as an artist-in-residence with their primary children. Clearview also participated in Jump Rope for Heart and had their first ever "Clearview's Got Talent" show for students and community.
