Clarkston Connection

A note from Mrs. Cureton:

Wow! What a great first week we have had at Clarkston Elementary! We are so glad you and your family have chosen Clarkston and entrusted us with your most precious gifts-your kids! 

Thank you to our amazing PTA for supplying our teachers with snacks for the week. Your generosity is much appreciated! We encourage all of our families to join the Clarkston PTA-moms, dads, aunts, uncles, and even grandparents can join! Your $7 yearly membership goes directly back into supporting Clarkston students. As a PTA member, you can choose your level of involvement-whether that’s simply paying your annual membership fee or helping PTA plan school events such as the fall carnival, field day, class parties, and other fun events on campus. Please click on the "JOIN PTA" link to join: JOIN PTA

Arrival Reminders: 

All students should be dropped off at the cafeteria doors in the morning. Only Clarkston students & staff  are allowed in the cafeteria doors. The cafeteria entrance is open from 7:00am-7:50am. Any students arriving after 7:50am must come to the front entrance and be checked in at the front office by an adult. 

All visitors must check in at the front office and have a valid ID with them. 

Dismissal Reminders:

Please note that if your student is a car rider, they must be picked up in the car line. If your student is a walker, they will be released through the front entrance of the school. We ask that anyone meeting their walkers meet them at the stop sign on Pine Crest and Williamsburg. Please do not drive up to the side of the school to pick your student up-if you are driving up to the side, you will need to get in the car line and your student will be a car rider. 

Please do not wait for your student at the front entrance of the school-that area needs to be clear for car rider dismissal. 


Have a great weekend!

-Sarah Cureton, Principal
