i think Cloverdale is probably the best school i have been too i am now attending CSAS in TN but that gave me enough education to go to that school. i think Cloverdale gives children a better education because it focuses on the individual children more because there are less children there. having more grades but less children is a great experience. and if they change schools it'll prepare them for other schools because the other grades. well thank you for listening:)

I had three children graduate for Cloverdale and they are all leading successful lives due to the education they received from the staff at Cloverdale.

Ahh, What can I say about Cloverdale? Cloverdale has so far been the best experience of my life. I am currently a student at another local high school and miss Cloverdale greatly(this does not mean I do not like my new school). Cloverdale has the best teachers in any school anywhere. Regardless of offers from other, bigger schools teachers choose to stay at the small junior high school. Currently Cloverdale is one of the most computerized schools in the county. Cloverdale also is engulfed in a rich history. It is the oldest county school and to my knowledge the second oldest school in the entire county. When talking about student life one would think Cloverdale does not have one, but Cloverdale has a very active student body. Since the school is so small no student is made to feel an outsider but a friend among all.
