The last day of school for Clear Lake students will be Friday, June 17. This will be a half-day and students will be dismissed at 12:00 PM. First Student and Bethel Transportation will run bus routes beginning at that time.

On the last day, we will be hosting a Clear-Lake-a-Thon event and students will sign up for one of the following activities:

• Jog-a-Thon at the track
• Hoop-a-Thon in the Gym/Outside Basketball Courts
• Art-a-Thon in the Cafeteria
• Read-a-Thon in the Library

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have postponed fundraisers and PTO and this is intended to be a fun event for students rather than a fundraiser. However, if you would like to donate to Clear Lake at any time you may do so by clicking this link.

5th Grade Promotion on June 16

We have some exciting news to share with you! Jennifer DeBlois has been selected as the next principal of Clear Lake Elementary School beginning next school year.

Principal DeBlois will officially take over at Clear Lake beginning later this summer when current principal Evan Rindy heads over to Shasta Middle School to serve as the assistant principal there.

Mrs. DeBlois is the current K-8 principal for Bethel Online Academy (BOA), has worked tirelessly this school year to lead BOA students and staff through the challenges of a pandemic. Her experience in Bethel – both as a principal this school year and an elementary teacher at Prairie Mountain for 16 years before that – will bring an invaluable skillset to the Clear Lake community.

“Being a K-8 principal at BOA has provided me with opportunities to connect with the Bethel community and has expanded relationships with families and students and staff across the district,” she said. “I am incredibly excited for the opportunity to continue to work with Bethel families in this way, and get to hear from, connect and collaborate with everyone in the Clear Lake community. I know that when we work together, we can accomplish a lot to provide the best possible learning supports for students.”

Mrs. DeBlois will be available to connect with Clear Lake students, staff and families as they make their way into school between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m., Tuesday, May 26. Be sure to say hello if you are able!

Congratulations to Jenn DeBlois and the Clear Lake community!

Sincerely,

Kraig Sproles, Bethel Superintendent

Su experiencia en Bethel, tanto como directora este año escolar como maestra de primaria en Prairie Mountain durante 16 años antes de eso, traerá un conjunto de habilidades invaluables a la comunidad de Clear Lake.

“Ser directora de K-8 en BOA me ha brindado oportunidades para conectarme con la comunidad de Bethel y ha ampliado las relaciones con las familias, los estudiantes y el personal de todo el distrito”, dijo. “Estoy increíblemente emocionada por la oportunidad de continuar trabajando con las familias de Bethel de esta manera, y poder escuchar, conectar y colaborar con todos en la comunidad de Clear Lake. Sé que cuando trabajamos juntos, podemos lograr mucho para proporcionar el mejor apoyo de aprendizaje para los estudiantes.”

Coco the Bear Visits Outdoor School

Last week, our 5th-grade students attended Outdoor School. We had two fun-filled and educational days at Camp Wiliani. Of course, Coco came along.

Beginning on May 2, we return to a more typical Clear Lake morning drop-off routine. All students will now enter through the front doors and breakfast will be served in the Cafeteria. Our afternoon pick-up routine will remain the same, with K-1 students exiting through the side doors. 

At this point, we do not have the ability to change our bus schedules or extend morning staffing so morning supervision will still begin at 8:40 AM. Please do not have students arrive before this time.
