Clinton High School will have a couple of facility upgrades completed this summer.

Clinton Schools Superintendent Curt Nettles stipulated the finance committee at the December school board meeting asked the board to update the science labs and FACS room at the high school.

Other facility upgrade priorities include new bleachers for the high school gym and sidewalks between the baseball and softball diamonds. Nettles notes he has heard from many students and community members about wanting a new football/track complex. He says that may be coming but will be several years down the road.

Nettles says once the board receives the architect's estimate they will know how much the updates will cost and how they want to further prioritize each project.

Mr. Nettles reports the school board has the cash to pay for some of the projects in full but for other projects they can sell bonds.

The science labs at the high school and junior high along with the high school FACS kitchen are being prioritized first and are scheduled to be in place by next school year.
