📢 Calling all Clayton alumni - how's life treating you these days?
Clayton School District is starting a new social media campaign, "Where are they?" Wednesday, - we would like to encourage our alums to return to their roots and share their post-Clayton tales with the Bears community!🐻
If you're interested, feel free to send us an update about your life after graduation, especially if they're directly connected to significant events in your educational experiences here at Clayton. We suggest interesting turns your career has taken, opportunities that a Claytonian education has opened up for you, or whatever else you think would be prudent to publicly share with CSD's social media pages.
