Just so you know, Clover Junior High no longer is in existence. Clover School District turned CJHS into Clover Middle School in 2009 and opened a new middle school in Lake Wylie, Oakridge Middle. Sixth graders went on to middle school, and elementary schools absorbed the fifth graders. The school was great, though, when it was in existence. I should know--I went there!

Absolutely wonderful! The principal is very attentive to the needs of the students and care of the parents. The teachers are willing to help with the students with any needs that they have. The teachers always send home info for the parents - stay in touch via email and school notes are always helpful too. You can always rest assured that the students are getting the best of education and care at Clover Jr Hi

I hate this school. The school's disciplinary program is used excessively and for minor incidents without any involvment of administration. They aren't required to put any details as to what happened and there is no discernable criteria used so teachers place these actions in a child's file based on their own personal feelings, bias, or mood and not based on any measureable requirements. Also, if a child is having trouble with work, there is no action plan put in place to help the child to improve. The principal there makes plenty of excuses but provides no support and makes sure his teachers know they don't have to do anything above and beyond the minimum unless they want to. Choose Rock Hill or Fort Mill stay out of this back woods town that is not interested in educating your child.

I like this school. My child gets plenty of help in all of her classes and is doing great so far this year. The teachers really care about these children.
