The teachers are nice but some of them are not. And some are terrible and write you and get you in trouble for everything. Dress code is aggravating, rules are aggravating, teachers be aggravating.

My overall experience at Clinton High School is good, the best experience that I had was in my senior year. I had been given good opportunities for the collages that I've applied to, made good friends and good relationships with teachers. But the worst experience that I had was when I was in the 10th grade, I wasn't so good at math and had to repeat the 10th grade...I missed a lot of opportunities.

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!
