Clover School District to Begin Student Reassignment Process for Next Year

The Clover School District Board of Trustees is beginning the Student Reassignment process for opening three new schools in August of 2026. The three new schools are Lake Wylie High School, Roosevelt Middle School and Liberty Hill Elementary. As a result, attendance line shifts will impact students across the district at all grade levels, except next year’s rising seniors in the Class of 2027 who will remain at Clover High School.

Information about the process can be found on a dedicated website, located at www.clover.k12.sc.us/o/district/page/student-reassignment-2025.

On Monday, August 25, the School Board will receive a first draft of the proposed attendance lines. This meeting begins at 6 p.m. and will be held at the District Office on Bethel Street. The meeting is open to the public and will be livestreamed on the CSD YouTube channel.

Once the first draft is shared, CSD will enter into a month-long period of community engagement around the proposed plan. Three community forums are scheduled during this time. The first will be in the Oakridge Middle School Cafeteria on Thursday, September 4, at 6 p.m. The second will be in the Clover Middle School Cafeteria on Thursday, September 11, at 6 p.m. The final meeting will be at the Clover School District Auditorium on Tuesday, September 16, at 6 p.m.

In addition to the public forums, CSD will post an online form on its Student Reassignment webpage. Parents and staff may use this form to ask questions or share concerns. Those who use the form will not receive a response, but the information shared in the form will be reviewed by the Board and Administration and will become a part of the final report on the attendance lines.

The Board will discuss early feedback from the online form and first forum at their work session on Monday, Sept. 8, at 6 p.m. at the District Office. This meeting is open to the public and will be livestreamed on the CSD YouTube channel.

The Board is expected to hold a vote on new attendance lines on Monday, September 22, at 6 p.m. at the District Office. This meeting is open to the public and will be livestreamed on the CSD YouTube channel.

Following the adoption of a new assignment plan, CSD will communicate with families and staff about the approved plan via all its usual communication channels.
