History

Clinton High School succeeded under the institutions of their boss, the superintendent. In 1989, the two buildings were attached by several classrooms and a hallway, commonly known as 'the Bridge'. In 1996, the school's library was constructed. The 'Media Center' contains over 1,000 books and 30 computers. In 2003, another expansion was completed. The science wing added 8 new classrooms and facilities specially designed for Biology, Earth Science, Chemistry, and Physics. At the beginning of the 2004-2005 school year, the high school opened a new 50,000-square-foot (4,600 m2) gymnasium complex. Several other athletic facilities were constructed along with it, as well as a large lobby used for the district's annual craft fair.
