🎾 Warrior Tennis: A Tradition of Excellence, A Future on New Courts 🎾

This year marks a special season for Whiteland Tennis as we play our first matches on the 12 brand-new courts at Whiteland Community High School! These beautiful new facilities reflect the incredible growth of our program and the dedication of our athletes and coaches.

Under the leadership of Coach Gillespie, Warrior Tennis has built an outstanding legacy:
✅ 0 academically ineligible players in 23 boys’ and 21 girls’ seasons
✅ 11 Team Academic All-State honors since 2014
✅ 29 Academic All-State players
✅ Boys Varsity record: 332–130 | Girls Varsity record: 231–153
✅ Boys: 8 Mid-State Conference Championships (including 4 of the last 5!)
✅ 13 Indiana All-Star players across boys & girls

But beyond the stats, it’s about commitment, character, and teamwork—and tonight we celebrated that spirit with Senior Night for our Warrior Tennis seniors! 💙

The season is not over yet, so try to come to a match and see the future of Warrior Tennis on our brand-new courts!

Want your student to be successful in school? Attendance matters, and here's why. While missing a day or two here and there can seem harmless, those days compound over time, leading to significant learning gaps.

Missing 1 day a week adds up to over 2.5 years of missed schooling over 13 years.

Missing 2 days a week adds up to more than 5 years of missed schooling over 13 years.

Regular attendance is one of the most important factors for academic success. Let's work together to ensure our students are in class and on track to reach their full potential!

We want every student to excel here at Clark-Pleasant Community Schools. Being at school is an important component for success.

Thinking "I'm just a little late" might not seem like a big deal, but these numbers show a different story.

Whether it's 10, 20, or even 60 minutes, those small moments of tardiness can steal valuable time from your school experience. The time you miss today could be a chance to learn something new, get help from a teacher, or connect with your classmates.

Let's prioritize punctuality and make the most of every minute we have at school. What's one small change you can make this week to be on time?

Clark-Pleasant Community Schools would like to introduce our new CFO Brad Pendleton!

Johnson County has been home to Brad and his family for generations. Brad's grandfather was a 1962 graduate of Whiteland High School, his grandmother a graduate of Franklin High School, his parents both graduated from Greenwood Community High School, and Brad also graduated from Greenwood Community High School in 2009. Brad is a graduate of Indiana University Bloomington with a degree in Public Finance. He and his wife, Hannah, live in Greenwood. Together, they have five year old identical twin daughters and a three year old son.

From 2020 through 2023, Brad served on the Greenwood Common Council as an at-large member. "I served on the Greenwood Common Council as a way to give back to a community that means so much to me and has given my family so much. I am very family oriented and decided not to run for an additional term so that I could spend time with my growing family without sacrificing the dedication needed by an elected official."

Brad has worked in the Office of School Finance as the Director of Nonpublic Schools at the Indiana Department of Education for the past ten years. Brad has spent years working with school reporting, funding, and compliance. "I am beyond excited to join the Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation in this role. It is a great direction for me professionally but provides me with yet another way to serve this great community. Dr. Edsell and the team at Clark-Pleasant have put the corporation in a great position and I look forward to utilizing my skills to continue moving Clark-Pleasant on an upward trajectory."

Please help us welcome Brad to our Clark-Pleasant Family!!

Last week was a big one for our community! We were featured in the Daily Journal for two major accomplishments: fantastic IREAD scores and leading the county in FAFSA completion. 👏

Our students at Clark-Pleasant Community School Corp. showed amazing progress with a 91.2% proficiency rate on the IREAD assessment, up from 87.1% last year! We couldn't be prouder of their hard work. You can read the full story here: https://dailyjournal.net/2025/08/18/johnson-county-statewide-iread-scores-make-strides/

Whiteland Community High School students also made us proud by completing the FAFSA at a higher rate than any other school in the county! A remarkable 66.3% of seniors and 84.2% of 21st Century Scholars completed the form—a significant jump from 57% last year. This will help so many of our students secure financial aid for college. Check out the details here: https://dailyjournal.net/2025/08/14/indiana-hits-60-fafsa-completion-johnson-county-schools-improve/

We're so proud of our students, staff, and community for these incredible achievements! 🎉

Today was an impactful eLearning Day for our school community! While our students were learning remotely, our dedicated teachers and staff were engaged in a day of professional development, attending various trainings and meetings.

A major highlight was a special seminar with renowned speaker and national drug trends expert, Jermaine "Tall Cop" Galloway! He shared crucial prevention education, strategies, and awareness to help our educators understand the evolving landscape and how to best protect our students.

As Jermaine says, "You can't stop what you don't know." Our team is now better equipped with the knowledge to keep our students safe and supported.

Hey families! 👋 Here's a quick guide on how to report a student absence. Our preferred method is through Skyward Family Access. If that's not possible, you can also message the front office or teacher on ParentSquare or send a handwritten note to the front office.

Please remember: Any phone call to report an absence will be marked as unexcused until one of these approved methods is completed.

For more details on excused and unexcused absences, please see the official attendance guidelines here: https://go.boarddocs.com/in/cpsin/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=DHSNXD61FC0B

Did you know there's a dedicated group of volunteers working to make our schools even better? That's the Clark-Pleasant Education Foundation (CPEF), a nonprofit organization committed to excellence in public education.

Since 2012, the CPEF has gifted over $536,000 in grants and scholarships to our students and staff. Their work is vital because it generates new sources of revenue that go directly toward innovative educational projects and opportunities that aren't covered by traditional funding.

They exist to:

Encourage and reward creativity and excellence in our classrooms.

Develop partnerships with local businesses and the wider community.

Inspire parents and alumni to get involved.

Support our teachers and administrators in their mission to provide a quality education.

The CPEF is all about building a stronger future for our students, and you can be a part of it. To learn more or to make a difference, visit their website: clarkpleasanteducationfoundation.org

We kicked off the school year the right way at Clark-Pleasant Middle School with our Warrior Way Convocation! Students had a blast playing games and answering questions about being respectful, responsible, and safe. We even learned some fun facts about our amazing staff. We can't wait to see our students model the Warrior Way all year long!
