My overall experience with Clewiston High school is Academically it's a pretty good school but if you let your self fall behind you'll be playing catch up like crazy the school does do credit recovery and summer school so they'll give you every opportunity to help you pass. You can build a connection with some teachers not all but some there's a lot of kids on campus of different races you can make a lot of friends. Our sports are pretty descent we got great coaches in all our sports who build bonds with each and every player. The campus is descent as well we have a lot of old buildings and but we also got some new stuff like new desk and computers our lunchroom just got a new floor and tables they also serve ok lunch but we also have a snack line that serves some good snacks. A typical classroom has a nice size of students so the teachers really don't have time to focus on just you but you can always ask for help and you can usually get help but overall that's Clewiston High School.

My best experience at Clewiston high school would be that my math teacher Mrs. Margarito is so awesome and she made me love math and I'm actually going to college for a degree of BBA of accounting cause she made math so enjoyable. The worst part of this school is the laziness of most teachers, I don't know jack in English and I don't think I ever will now. Maybe I just suck in English but all my English classes just don't make sense at all and it still is like that my senior year, but luckifully I'm doing whatever it takes for my A's.

As a student at this school I have to say that I never wanted to drop out more in my entire life. The admins are rude and make it seem that the students don't have a say in anything because we're "kids". I feel degraded by the administration. This isn't the only problem though, the cleanliness is te...

my son is a new student to thre school, and I have found everyone supportive and very helpful. They offer quite a bit, and were focused on college prep and ACT testing.
