My child is a freshman. She has been an outcast from day one. I grew up here since 1988. My experience was fine at buckeye. My daughter has had nothing but problems with this school. The counselor has been good...she was called something nasty in front of a teacher during class! Nothing was said. She has endured everyday, eating alone not even in the cafeteria with other students. When all these schools boast about no bullying, they aren't talking about cloverleaf!!! It's a click school and if one person doesn't like you for any reason, you are not welcome here. A teacher should have stopped this nonsense but I'm sure they knew their parent. As I'm sure I do. I'm sickened to pull my kids out of a school district that I attended but they are absolutely out of this one. Disagree if you will. But most of us know each other.... good people shine a light on bad things. There will be local and national massive spotlights on cloverleaf due to it's amazing lack of leadership, especially in the current environment of these past several years. Do not send your child here. Good school but the emotional toll it takes on your child if they aren't accepted, not to mention the entire family unit. And the fact that teachers overlook harassment based on the child, during a class is simply unacceptable...you won't be able to bully my child ever again. She's out of this school and nobody I know will ever be recommended to this school. Bullying is common in schools, even now after all the drama. It's sort of a coming of age thing. We have all been bullied in times in our lives. As a child, especially as a freshman in a school for the first time, in front of a teacher in the middle of class??? Seriously?? ... absolutely not!! Chance your child's mental health is you like. Mine will not be subject to this mental abuse. Thank God it's not a physical abuse, but honestly that might be easier to heal from. Bruises only last a week. Mental abuse can last a lifetime. Shame on you cloverleaf teacher who allowed this to take place. And shame on any other adult who witnessed this through the course of the last several weeks in this school. In the classroom was the final straw. It's a small school, I know someone saw something and turned a blind eye. Because most of these people know each other already from going to school together or through sports their kids have been in. Shame on you cloverleaf!!! I loved this community for over 35 years and now I'm taking my family to another.

Overall poor. Poor leadership. Teachers are jaded and going thru the motions. Teachers don’t care about the students

I've had a son in the district from 2nd grade and he is now in 9th grade. If I were to stay here he would be woefully underprepared for college. The budget issues that the school has faced has cost them dearly in terms of quality teachers. They've been stuck with quite a bit of dead weight that they can't get rid of due to the union. It's a shame, really. The superintendent is absolutely the saving grace of the District. To blame anyone other than the voters of the District does the school an injustice. It took them over a decade to pass a levy, and this is what happens when schools are forced to cut back to nothing. The belief that the school spends wastefully is widespread and unsubstantiated. All one needs to do is attend a board meeting now and then to see that, though few bother.

I am both a parent and former graduate. The lower grades (1st - 3rd) are not that bad, but as you get older it gets worse. Many teachers that did care have been let go and most that are left are just there to get a check and wait for retirement. If you have any issues at all they try to ship you off to the Career Center. I have heard from Seniors that the Guidance Office does not help much with continuing with extra college credits thru Akron U. They actually will discourage. Not sure why. Maybe they lose money for each student. I got good grades but when I went to College I was behind and had to take about a year of classes to catch up. Cloverleaf is weak in Math and went I went for Engineering I was not ready. This is my experience and now I am seeing things being repeated again with my child. If anything it might be worse with the budget issues.

Cloverleaf High School provided me with excellent teachers that motivated me and encouraged me to do my best. The principal and assistant principals all cared about the students and only wanted to see them succeed. Cloverleaf also provided challenging curriculum, it was just up to each individual student to do the work! Cloverleaf was a great place to be!

Cloverleaf has a few dedicated and caring teachers, however most of them are too willing to fail a student rather than help them. The guidance counselors only care about the good students. They tell all of the 'problem kids' to transfer to the Medina County Career Center, so they don't have to deal with them. I graduated a few years ago, and although I'm doing much better in College, I have to say that my education at Cloverleaf did not prepare me for College at all. It's a lot of hard work making up for all of that lost time.
