Look at our latest authors at OVE! Mrs. Pendleton's class published a book! We love to see those young authors smile!


We’ve been busy leveling up! Our front office entrance just got a fresh new look, and we can’t wait for you to see it.

Clay County District Schools is proud to be a community that supports our military families! 💜
April is the Month of the Military Child, and we invite all students, staff, and families to "Purple Up!" on Wednesday, April 15th.
Why purple? It’s the color that symbolizes all branches of the military coming together—a blend of Army green, Marine Corps red, and Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard blue. By wearing purple, we show our military-connected students that we appreciate their strength, sacrifices, and resilience.
Let’s turn our hallways and classrooms into a sea of purple on April 15th!

Mrs. Pendleton's 2nd graders turned into solar engineers on Friday! They spent the afternoon learning about renewable energy by building their very own solar ovens. The best part? Testing them out with some gooey s'mores! Fantastic work, Explorers!
