As a follow up to the Student Reassignment Process completed back in the fall, CSD has now released an updated School Locator. The updated School Locator reflects student assignments for the 2026-2027 school year and moving forward, as established during the Reassignment Process.
The School Locator is helpful for families registering new students or for those considering real estate transactions. Those wishing to enroll a student for the 2025-2026 school year will need to contact a school registrar to confirm their assignment for the current school year.

The 2025-26 VEX Robotics game is called Push Back. Push Back consists of numerous small 3.5-inch octa-decahedron (an 18-sided 3D shape) and elevated tube-like structures. These ‘tubes’ lay horizontally on three different planes with the goal of inserting the octa-decahedron into the tubes. VEX changes their game yearly, which forces teams to design and build brand-new robots each year from scratch.
VEX Robotics team members design, build, test, and compete with their own personalized robots. Students have full autonomy to build their robots how they see fit. This year team 1660B “Triple Trouble” has won awards at two different competitions including the Innovation Award at Clemson University for their unique roller intake system, and the Judge's Award for their Engineering Notebook and fully coding their robot in Phyton. These two awards were integral in recognizing the team to receive the invitation to the 2026 US Open Competition.
The team consists of 3 members; Annabelle Naile (lead designer and scribe), Trinity Scott (python coder, autonomous subject matter expert), and Harrison Mayberry (drivetrain designer, lead builder, skills driver).
The team’s advisors are Virginia Mayberry, PLTW-Gateway Teacher (Head Robotics Coach), Clover Middle School and Assistant Coach Matthew Mayberry, P.E. from Kinectrics (Nuclear Design Engineering)
Clover LEAF will share in covering costs with Dr. Millicent Dickey, Chief Academic Officer for Clover School District, and parents of team members.
Clover High School's Associate Director of Bands and Lake Wylie High School's future Director of Bands Anne Lewis Turner was named the 2026 Outstanding Young Music Educator by the South Carolina Music Educators Association (SCMEA).
The award was presented Friday during the organization's Professional Development Conference in Columbia.
Candidates are nominated anonymously for this award, and nominations are supported by confidential letters of recommendation.
One nomination letter stated:
“Ms. Turner is one of the most promising music educators in South Carolina. Though she is in only her fifth year of teaching, she demonstrates the skills of a seasoned educator. She has taught at Great Falls Middle/High School and served as a graduate assistant at Winthrop University before beginning her work in the Clover School District. Ms. Turner works with the Clover High School Band, Clover Middle School, and Oak Ridge Middle School, and also teaches and manages a World Class WGI Percussion Ensemble.
Her commitment and drive consistently push students to new heights. Ms. Turner is known for her outstanding pedagogy, strong instincts, and ability to connect with students in meaningful ways. She is a dedicated, detail-oriented educator with exceptional communication and leadership skills, a strong work ethic, and a passion for innovative and individualized teaching. She excels in curriculum development, ensemble direction, and administrative coordination within music programs.”
Another letter, written by a current student, shared:
“Mrs. Turner has been an amazing music educator over my past five years in the Clover High School Band. She consistently shows patience and empathy while helping students learn difficult music. I have seen her rewrite and adapt music to ensure every student can be challenged and successful. She takes the time to break music down note by note until everyone understands, and she remains patient regardless of how long it takes for students to master a passage.”
An additional recommendation noted:
“Anne’s work ethic is unmatched. She approaches every rehearsal, class, and performance with professionalism and diligence. She is a true team player who supports her colleagues while also serving as a natural leader. Anne has a unique ability to navigate difficult conversations with grace and fairness, fostering collaboration and growth. Her influence extends beyond Clover, contributing meaningfully to instrumental music education throughout South Carolina and nationally through her involvement in the WGI circuits.”
Congratulations, Mrs. Turner!

A special shout out to the Clover High School state champion girls cross country team and the Clover High School girls swimming team, state runners-up—your hard work and determination make our entire community proud! 💪💙
We’re grateful for our student-athletes, coaches, and supporters who help create opportunities for girls to grow in confidence and character—on and off the field.
This week, we recognize and thank our school counselors for the guidance, compassion, and support they provide to students every day. From academic planning to social-emotional support and college and career readiness, our counselors play a vital role in helping students succeed—both in and out of the classroom. We are grateful for the difference you make in the lives of our students and families!
Our crews worked all day to clear campuses and evaluate roads in our community for a safe return to school. The sun was not strong enough today to accomplish all the melting we would have liked to see before putting buses and student drivers back out on the road. This afternoon, we reported concerns with 15 roads in the district to the York County Emergency Management Office in order to request additional treatment on the roads. That list included:
Stateline Road
Oakridge Road
Riddle Mill Road
Stowe Road
Jim McCarter Road
Thomas Road
Sherwood Road
Dr. Nichols Road
Green Pond Road
Barrett Road
Bate Harvey Road
Love Valley remains closed (we have three buses there)
David Circle
Beamguard Road
Thomas Road
Families will again receive communication from their school with full details about tomorrow’s eLearning.
Thank you again for your grace. We truly understand what a hardship eLearning can be and do not reach these decisions lightly.
This month, we’re celebrating the dedicated bus drivers and transportation staff who safely get our students to and from school each day. Rain or shine, early mornings or late afternoons, their care and commitment make a difference for our families and schools. Thank you for all you do to keep our students moving and smiling—today and every day!
While you’ve been building a snowman or staying warm inside, CSD staff members have been driving roads in the school district to evaluate their condition for a safe return to school. While many primary roads are dry, there are a number of shaded secondary roads that are not safe for student drivers or buses. Additionally, because of the extremely cold temperatures, only four of our 12 campuses have been cleared of snow. For this reason, CSD will transition to an eLearning Day on Tuesday, February 3, 2026.
As before, families will receive instructions directly from their school about how the eLearning Day will operate.
We did not send a phone call today due to technical difficulties. We appreciate your patience and understanding as CSD navigates this historic snowfall.
Stay safe and warm, CSD!
📚📅 Professional Development Day 📅📚
Students will not be in session today as our teachers are engaged in professional development. As a reminder, all professional development is being conducted virtually today! This dedicated time allows our educators to collaborate, learn, and strengthen their skills to better support student success.
CSD is monitoring weather conditions for Tuesday, February 3. Any decision regarding operations on Tuesday will be made on Monday afternoon.
Stay safe and warm, CSD!
That's because both Lake Wylie High School and Liberty Hill Elementary are substantially under roof and closed in. Work on both sites is now focused on things like mechanical systems, flooring and case work. You can even start to see a little of Lake Wylie's signature Columbia blue paint showing up on the walls.
