Clinton High School, or CHS, is a public high school in the village of Clinton, Oneida County, New York, United States. All of the Clinton Central School District buildings are at the same location, and the middle school is attached to the high school, as are the district offices. The high school harbors four grades, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th. Though there are now generally 120-150 students per grade, enrollment has declined to the point where within several years, that figure will be around 100. For the past five years, the school has gone through many renovations and expansions. School classes begin the first Thursday after Labor Day, and continue until June. The school year consists of 180 school days. The most recent school budget proposal, which requested $22.8 million for 2007-08, was rejected in May 2007 by 38 votes (677-639).
