We would love to treat our seniors to breakfast before Track & Field Day on Wednesday, April 22nd. We’ll be eating at 8:00 AM at the pavilion beside the FFA building before events begin.
If you’d like to help, we would appreciate donations of items such as donuts, muffins, breakfast casseroles, fruit, bacon, granola bars, milk, juice, and/or paper products. If you’re willing to contribute, please email what you’d like to send that morning to mccormac@clintonsd.org.
Thank you for helping make this a great morning for our seniors!
The senior cookout will be held Friday, May 1, 2026 at 5:30 pm in the high school cafeteria. Senior parents are encouraged to bring a dessert. Desserts will be dropped off at the beginning of the cookout.
With a 95% teacher retention rate, our educators are choosing to stay, serve, and invest in our students every day.
That consistency matters, and it's one more reason Clinton is a great place to learn and grow.
We would love to show you firsthand what makes Clinton great. Contact Superintendent Tim Smith smitht@clintonsd.org to schedule a tour.
The school choice deadline is June 1st, school choice paperwork can be found by going to www.clintonsd.org. We hope you make the choice to choose Clinton.
