CWA’s 5th Grade students reached a milestone this year as they completed Elementary School and are moving on to Middle School. We are very proud of all of their accomplishments and especially the fun, goofy, kind, caring students they are. They worked hard this year presenting at two Celebrations of Learning, participating in BizTown, making fantastic academic gains in Language Arts and Math, and creating wonderful works of art throughout the year. Thank you to all who attended our Elementary Celebration at North Clackamas Park, it was a very fun day and the Kona Ice truck was a hit!!
Kindy Promotion

Way to go Kindergartners on completing your very first year of school successfully! It was fun to watch you learn so many new skills this year and become such good friends. Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious, remember our challenge to try something new this summer and keep reading! Have a wonderful summer and we’ll see you in the fall! ☀️
Outdoor School
Our 6th grade students enjoyed a fun-filled week at Outdoor School this year at the sunny Oregon Coast. While there, they enjoyed beautiful weather, engaged in science activities in the wondrous ecosystems unique to our awesome state, wrote and performed skits, learned and sang new songs, and most of all gained confidence and independence and a strong sense of community with their peers.
3rd Annual CWA Fun Run -
Our Elementary, Middle and High School students participated in our 3rd Annual Fun Run raising over $1800 for our school , thank you SO much to those of you that participated and to our Leadership Team for setting this event up! An extra special shout out to those students that brought in the most money: Krista Jordaine and Giada Ferensak in Middle School and Oliver Betteridge and Greyson Sharp in Elementary School. Thank you so much for your extraordinary support of our school! The money raised in this event helps pay for field trips, science supplies, community building activities, Kona Ice and more. We hope to see everyone again at our annual Fun Run next year, so start training now 😊
Game Night
A huge thank you to our Leadership class for hosting an awesome Game Night in April! Students played games, sang karaoke, took selfies in the photo booth, ate delicious snacks, participated in video game competitions, won awesome raffle prizes, and had so much fun together! It was a very well attended and successful event, well done Leadership Team!
Celebration of Learning
CWA’s spring Celebration of Learning was a huge success and enjoyed by students, staff, family, and community members! Our Elementary students hosted an amazing science fair, where the scientific method was on full display. Our Middle School students showcased work from Language Arts, Math, Social Studies and Science using display boards or slideshows.
At the high school levels, ninth graders showed off their learning through unique projects in science and math, English and World History, respectively. In 10th grade, students followed a theme of survival as they presented for Biology, US History, English, and Math. Our Juniors and Seniors presented their experiences gained in the community service-based Youth Take Action class and Senior Internship. Well done to all of you that participated, your hard work and presentation skills were amazing!
Spring Formal
Our 8th - 12th grade students enjoyed a fun evening of dancing, singing, and crafting together this spring. CWA was transformed into an elegant ballroom for the evening and our students were dressed to the nines. Thank you Ms. Seibel and the Leadership Team for hosting this fantastic event, fun was had by all who attended!
K-1 Farm
North Clackamas’ Land Lab invited our K-1 students for a fun farm animal field trip this spring. Students were able to see pigs, goats, chickens, cows, and more. Watching the High School FFA students lead our students in groups and share their knowledge was very special, thank you to all who came to the farm!
Elementary Students of the Month
El evento de limpieza de Stream/Roadside ofreció a los estudiantes una gran oportunidad para ayudar a su comunidad y al mismo tiempo brindarles valiosas horas de YTA. Los estudiantes y el personal llenaron varias bolsas de basura a lo largo de 84th Ave aquí en Clackamas, ¡muchas gracias a todos los que participaron! Comuníquese con su maestro de YTA si está buscando más oportunidades de voluntariado.
8th Grade Bowling
CWA’s 8th grade students got to enjoy a special field trip to Milwaukie Bowl and Pietro’s Pizza to end their year. Students had fun bowling, walking to Pietros, playing games, eating pizza and spending time together before summer break. A HUGE thank you to our awesome parent volunteers for helping make this a special event with decorations, cake, tokens, pizza, and more, you guys are awesome!
Butterfly life cycle
Elementary students studied the life cycle of the butterfly this spring in preparation for their Science Fair. It was fun to watch them grow from caterpillars, to becoming a chrysalis to eventually emerging as butterflies. Students were engaged every step of the way until we eventually released them all in early June.
Senior Luncheon
It was fun once again to celebrate the accomplishments of our seniors at our Annual Senior Luncheon. Students were provided a delicious Pietro’s pizza lunch in a festive atmosphere where they were able to enjoy each other’s company and celebrate their High School journey together. Our seniors were very supportive of each other as they received honor cords for department awards, Oregon State Assessments, college credit, Youth Take Actions, longevity at CWA, biliteracy, and more.
