Claremore High School
Claremore High School is a public high school located in Claremore, Oklahoma. History
The high school located on 201 E. Stuart Roosa started being built in 1972. The construction team began working on "the pit" during this time. The name of the pit has an unknown origin, but it's an H-block which splits the 100, 200, 300, and 400 hall into the shape of a capital H.

Then, the 600 hall began construction in 1997, and didn't finish until 2002. Then, in 2008, the freshman center, which is officially known by staff as the 900 hall, was finished.Also in 2008, the 700 hall was established in the Robson Performing Arts Center. The most recent addition to the high school was the STEM building. This was built in 2021 and serves the new 500 hall, which is a collection of classrooms themed around Technology and Engineering. This extended the original main entrance, making the original entrance really hard to spot. Administration
