Location

The Clover Park School District is located directly south of Tacoma, Washington in the city of Lakewood, Washington. The district includes 68 square miles (180 km2) within the western area of Pierce County. CPSD serves Lakewood and Joint Base Lewis-McChord communities.

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.

Starting with the 2009-2010 school year, Harrison Prep will offer grades 6 through 12 only, to allow for an International Baccalaureate (Middle Years Program).

Demographics

On average, the CPSD student body is approximately 39.66% Caucasian, 13.05% African American, 27.85% Hispanic, 4.53% Asian American, and .83% Native American.

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 one 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.
