Measurement: Missouri State Student Survey Students make anti-oppressive choices and use their gifts and talents to build a more inclusive community. Measurement: Panorama sense of belonging survey data Meeting these objectives will ensure Clayton graduates are: 19 We will be dedicated to the personal growth of our learners in their social, emotional, and physical well-being. I n a District where academic excellence is the norm, intentional steps are taken to nurture students’ social, emotional and physical well-being. This dedication is evident across classrooms, from the District’s youngest learners at the Family Center, who engage in activities that help them identify and express emotions, to middle school students at Wydown who collaborate in small groups to strengthen relationships with their peers. Beyond these daily experiences, the District continues to prioritize student well-being in meaningful ways. One example is the Wellness Center, the first of its kind in the Midwest, which offers students a dedicated space to focus on mental health. Located on the lower level of Clayton High School, this welcoming space provides opportunities for brain breaks, wellness events and easy access to resources that support mental and emotional health. At the elementary level, the CharacterStrong program is driving meaningful social and emotional growth. Through engaging lessons that include songs, games and activities, students learn empathy, kindness, interpersonal skills and resilience. For those needing additional support, teachers and staff can connect students with extra resources through program referrals. These efforts are making a measurable difference. According to the District’s 2024 data dashboard, more than 77% of students in grades 3–5 report feeling a strong sense of belonging—a score significantly higher than the national average and one that has continued to rise since the District began participating in the Panorama survey in 2022. While progress toward these goals is ongoing, these achievements, along with the list of completed activities below, reflect the District’s intentional and focused commitment to supporting every student’s well-being.

This work is guided by the District’s Long-Range Facilities Master Plan—a strategic roadmap shaped by extensive community input and expert evaluation. The plan directs facilities investments designed to enhance academic excellence and better meet the evolving needs of students and educators. Current efforts focus on three key goal areas. G O A L 1 Modernizing Elementary Schools and The Family Center Top priorities include upgrading R.M. Captain, Glenridge and Meramec—which face challenges from aging infrastructure and limited space. The Family Center, home to early childhood programs, is also under review. To determine whether renovation or new construction is the best path forward, the District launched a comprehensive feasibility study in June. This study, led by Perkins & Will in partnership with Paragon Architecture, will leverage community feedback and expert guidance. G O A L 2 High School Academic Enhancements Perkins & Will and Paragon Architecture are also developing preliminary plans for CHS. The project includes building a new academic wing to expand career and technical education programs and renovating the auditorium. G O A L 3 Athletic Upgrades For athletic facilities, BLDD Architects has been selected to design improvements across the District. Key priorities include installing turf at Wydown Middle and adding a new press box and dugouts at Adzick Field. Additionally, the District is exploring options to enhance safety and accessibility at Gay Field.

The Board of Education, staff, families and community are united in a shared commitment to student learning. Our mission — to inspire each student to love learning and embrace challenge within a rich and rigorous academic culture — and our vision — to develop leaders who shape the world through independence, creativity and critical thinking — set the standard for our work. The Profile of the Clayton Graduate further defines the attributes we strive to develop in every graduate: self-actualized, intellectually curious, culturally competent, empathetic, collaborative and creative. This profile guides instructional design and daily practice. We value the community’s trust in our stewardship of public resources and believe that strong academic results are built on disciplined financial management. Through multi-year forecasting and long-term planning, the District manages rising costs, allocates resources strategically and ensures every dollar aligns with our Strategic Plan at the goal level and objective level. Beyond this, our distinction as one of only four districts in Missouri to hold a “AAA” bond rating from S&P affirms our record of fiscal responsibility and long-term financial health.

As part of this commitment, Clayton has implemented several strategic safety measures. Investing in Campus Security One of the most significant additions to the District’s safety measures is the Centegix Crisis Alert System, which was fully implemented at the start of the 2024–25 school year. This system equips each staff member with a wearable badge that allows them to send real-time alerts to designated responders with the simple click of a button. The system ensures rapid intervention in medical, behavioral or safety-related emergencies, facilitating a swift, coordinated response. Training on the new system has been ongoing to ensure staff feel confident and prepared to respond effectively in an emergency. Beyond the Centegix system, the District has made several other key investments to further enhance security across its schools. Upgraded Camera Systems: To enhance school safety, the District has invested in upgraded camera systems at Wydown Middle and Clayton High. Work began over the summer to prepare for the new school year. This new technology provides school resource officers with improved tools to help prevent potential issues and respond more quickly when concerns arise. Controlled Access Improvements: At Clayton High School, the District prioritized safety with the addition of a vestibule entrance connecting the school to the Center of Clayton. This improvement enhances control over access to the shared space, creating a more secure environment for students and staff. Construction is on track to be completed by late fall 2025. The District also strengthened its overall commitment to safety with the creation of a director of safety and security position. In January 2025, Michael R. Parkinson joined the District in this role, overseeing safety across all schools. His work includes coordinating emergency preparedness, advancing technology systems that support safety and partnering closely with local first responders. This dedicated role represents a proactive step toward ensuring the safety and well-being of all students and staff. Safety Starts with Speaking Up Creating a safe and supportive school environment is a shared responsibility, and that includes knowing when and how to speak up. The District offers two confidential reporting tools, Clayton Quick Tip and Courage2Report, that empower students, staff and families to report concerns related to threats, bullying or any behavior that could put someone at risk. School Resource Officer Jack Boeger welcomes students to Wydown Middle. C R I S I S R E S P O N S E P L A N S A s part of its ongoing commitment to safety, the Board of Education regularly reviews the District’s safety plans to ensure policies and procedures remain current and effective. These reviews include updates on emergency preparedness, facility security measures and collaboration with local law enforcement and first responders. By maintaining a consistent focus on safety at the governance level, the Board reinforces its dedication to protecting students, staff and visitors across all District schools.
