Hello Parents and Guardians,

There was a power outage in town which temporarily affected the Middle School/ High School's main power source. During this time, we utilized the back up generator to maintain all essential power. At all times, students and staff remained safe, and our established safety procedures were followed throughout the brief interruption. Currently our power has been restored and we have continued resuming normal school functions.

Thank you
Mr. Tucker

Please see the attached letter to the Community.

Due to current icy conditions and out of an abundance of caution to keep our students and staff safe, Clayton Public School District will operate on a 2-HOUR DELAY on:

Thursday, January 29
Friday, January 30

This additional time allows for safer road conditions and proper preparation of school facilities.

Congratulations to the Clayton Middle School Clippers of the Month for December!
We appreciate your effort, respect, and commitment to learning—qualities that strengthen our entire school community. Keep up the amazing work, Clippers! 💙💛

Dear Parents,

We wanted to let you know that due to snow removal this week, parking will be very limited. To help ease congestion and keep drop-off and pick-up running smoothly, we’re asking families to carpool whenever possible.

If you’re able to coordinate rides with another family this week, we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much for your flexibility and cooperation as we navigate the winter conditions.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Stay safe,
Mr. Tucker

Clayton Public School District will have a 2-hour delayed opening on Wednesday, January 28th.

Mr. K says:
PLEASE stay safe, stay warm, and ENJOY THE SNOW DAY! ☃️❄️

🚨 Snow Emergency Parking Notice – Clayton Residents 🚨

With winter weather expected, the Clayton Police Department reminds all residents that vehicles must be removed from roadways to allow for safe and effective snow plowing and emergency response.

🛑 Please also remove basketball nets, trailers, and any other obstructions from the roadway.

🅿️ Temporary alternative parking locations during the snowstorm include:
• DJ Benz Park
• Clayton Senior Center
• Clayton Recreation Center
• Clayton Little League
• Autumn Pasquale Park
• Sandelier Park

Keeping roadways clear helps protect vehicles, Borough equipment, and ensures emergency access for first responders.

⚠️ This notice serves as a final warning. Parking enforcement will issue summonses for vehicles or obstructions left in the roadway during snow removal operations.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community safe. ❄️🚓
