The sports entrance at Clinton High School will receive an upgrade this summer that is going to make one of the heavier trafficked areas of the school during non-school hours much more accessible.

Clinton Schools Superintendent Curt Nettles indicates last Tuesday night, the Board of Education approved the upgrade that will make the entrance handicap accessible.

According to Nettles, this past summer, the drive runs alongside the school and around the back of the school was paved and the parking spaces off that run were paved. He indicates the parking lot is on the radar to be improved as well.

The facilities have come under scrutiny of late. The Clinton Board of Education has done extensive work to target areas of need both inside the building and outside the building.

The community has taken notice of the facilities updates as well. Like anything, some find incredible value in the targeted improvements and others do not. Administrators emphasize, inside the building is receiving just as much attention as those issues outside most visible to the public eye.
