Clarksville High School opened its doors for the first time in 1955 and ever since the school’s highly dedicated staff has worked to prepare its students for what comes after graduation, be it college, trade school, a military career, or the workforce.
In 2021, Clarksville High School and Renaissance Academy joined forces, bringing together the best of the two learning models to all students grades 9 through 12. Students, rather than choosing between a model, move between buildings to take their core, elective, and pathway courses throughout the day. Project-based learning is utilized in core and elective classes to teach students soft skills alongside academics.
Students may also take dual credit courses through Ivy Tech Sellersburg or Indiana University. This allows them the opportunity to earn college credits before they graduate high school. We offer tracks that allow students to graduate from high school with one or even two years of college completed that are transferable to any in-state public college. Tuition is completely free for our students! As students approach their junior year, they may also apply for programs at Prosser Career Education Center that can lead to employment upon graduation. These different options allow them the ability to create a multi-faceted education that is unique to them.
With the power of the two models combined, Clarksville High School is able to provide similar opportunities of any large school paired with the personal touch only a small school can provide.
Students are heavily encouraged to take advantage of our numerous extracurricular and co-curricular activities, including our athletics, fine arts programs, and many clubs!

Principal’s Message
Dr. Adrienne Goldman
Welcome to Clarksville High School, Home of the Generals!
I am honored to be entering my 10th year as principal of Clarksville High School and my 26th year in education. Without a doubt, my favorite thing about CHS is our small community environment. This allows us to truly know our students and support them as they work toward their goals. While we are a small school community, we take pride in offering big opportunities—from academics to extracurriculars—so that our Generals experience the best of both worlds: the resources of a larger school and the personal connection of a close-knit community.
Our team is committed to providing every student with a safe, caring, and positive environment that inspires them to reach their full potential—academically and as members of our community. We believe this focus is essential to helping students graduate on time and move forward as confident, prepared individuals.
As we enter the 2025–2026 school year, we are challenging both staff and students to consider how they will “Unleash Their Potential.”

FAMILY TESTIMONIALS
“It’s like a family for my children. They’ve loved every teacher they’ve had or that’s there and they’re excited to be there. I would describe Clarksville schools as a family. That’s really the only way to describe it.”

“We have struggled with helping [Charlie] learn how he learns differently and what works best for him and all of the research and doctor visits and therapy all recommended a place that allowed him a place that allowed him to think outside the box. When he came to the open house at Renaissance Academy he said they speak my language here. This feels like home.”
