My daughter only attended CHS for one year but I was extremely impressed with the staff, the front office and all other staff I encountered. All were so helpful, attentive and seemed very engaged in ensuring each student's success. I am saddened that she won't be attending her last year at CHS but also thankful she experienced it at least one year.
Its... a school.... a public school.... you can't avoid it.... sorry
Clover has the worst schools in the world. Their staff is more concerned about discipline and throwing kids out of the classroom than the actual learning process. These schools are governed by no one, they govern and police themselves. I would think twice before moving to this district. Also, their curriculum is a grade below every other state. Students graduating here in the 12th grade only took classes through the 11th grade elsewhere. It is dumbed down.
I am a parent and my son has been a part of CSD since Kindergarden. I am very pleased with the school district and I highly recommend it. If you read these reviews I think it is clear who are parents and who are students who are having a bad high school experience and that is unfortunate but I know many students and their parents from the wealthy to the "just making it" families, of various racial backgrounds, and they are also happy with Clover High School.
There are some things about High School, that will never change, there cliques.. popular kids and not so popular kids. It's unfortunate but I know of no school in America where it isn't so.
As for weapons, the school is not in an area where you would find metal detectors , u can't get pass the front office without showing them valid id which u have to put into a machine which it scans and then gives u a printed pass. There is an actual policeman, not a guard on site. You can't even get into the elementary school unless them buzzing you in and that will only get u into the reception desk not any where near the little people inside. unless they let u in another locked door. Now they are not frisking kids at the door but they are as safe as any school can be these days.
I hope any student or staff for that matter who felt they are being bullied or harassed in any way gets the help they need before it escalates.
It's a great school system which is why so many "wealthy"people who maybe want a little slower pace than Fort Mill (another top SC school system, closer to Charlotte NC.)chose Clover. They could easily afford to send their children to private school and would if Clover School system wasn't so good.
