Clinton Senior High
Clinton is a small town in north-central Massachusetts, about 15 miles east of Worcester, situated along the Nashua River. Originally a mill town powered by the river's falls, Clinton developed as a center of carpet and textile manufacturing in the 19th century, with many historic mill buildings still defining its downtown landscape. The town retains a compact, walkable center and serves as a gateway between the Worcester area and communities closer to the New Hampshire border.
