The staff and teachers of Clinton are one of the kindest people I know. They care about their students and their future. Highschool is hard but having teachers there to listen and help the students makes it easier. That said, I wish that the students would do their part in keeping the school clean. The cleaning staff does a great job picking up after us. I hope we will take care of this school to keep it clean.

I love the fact they have Colorguard because most schools don't have that but it also doesn't get recognized and doesn't get money from the school to help with the necessary things, I know this because I was in it for a year. The school itself is a little strict and I feel a little bit racist as well mainly because my sophomore year I got in trouble for wearing a scarf on my head when my hair was visible.

This is the greatest little high school in the upstate! We moved from a larger high school to Clinton High School this year and the teachers really work with my child to make sure she is successful. Go Devils!
