I moved down to Chesnee my junior year of high school from Canada, and I was greeted with open arms. They took the morning to show me around the school so I wouldn't get lost from my classes. All my teachers were super nice to me. Yes, it is a majority white school and came in as a mixed person. So there was some road bumps, a lot of questions about where I was from, why I moved to Chesnee out of all places. But after that all calmed down and everyone was used to me being around, I have made some lifelong friends, and for that I am truly grateful.

Chesnee High School gave me the best four years of my life. The atmosphere of this school is incredibly welcoming, secure, and motivating. The teachers and staff truly care about each individual students's education, but they also care about us as people. It is truly a special place.
