The Clover Park School District (CPSD) is the fourth largest school district in Pierce County, Washington, United States, and the 28th largest public school district in the state.[2]

Location

The Clover Park School District is located directly south of Tacoma, Washington in the city of Lakewood. The district includes 68 square miles (180 km2) within the western area of Pierce County.

CPSD serves the majority of Lakewood, North Fort Lewis, the Joint Base Lewis-McChord community (the district boundary includes almost all of the boundary of Fort Lewis and much of the McChord Field territory), and portions of Parkland and Tacoma.[3]

Schools

Clover Park is composed of 17 elementary schools, four middle schools, two high schools, one alternative high school and Harrison Preparatory School (grades 6-12). The district also serves two specialty schools within Western State Hospital.

Demographics

The CPSD student body is approximately 46% White, 22% Hispanic, 13% Black, 6% Asian, 3% Pacific Islander, 1% Native American, <1% Other, and 9% mixed. The median household income is $52,089. About 7.6% of students have a disability.[6]

Racial discipline policy

Data from Washington schools indicated that black students were disciplined more often than white students.[7] "Are you dispersing discipline across the ethnicities, the racial groups, equitably", asked a district superintendent, "are you disciplining African-American boys more than you're disciplining white boys?"[7]

Military influence

There has been a significant military influence within the district due to its proximity to Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Each of its two senior high schools are home to two Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) programs. Clover Park High School has an Air Force JROTC program, and Lakes High School has an Army JROTC program.

About 31% of students within the district live on a military base while 40% are funded military dependents. From 1985 to 2011, there have been 90 appointments to military academies from CPSD.
