Way to go C.L.

The Clinton School District is excited to announce that C.L. Brownsberger was recently recognized as the Rookie Manager of the Year with ATS Facility Services. ATS provides contracted janitorial and maintenance services for the school district.

Mr. Brownsberger has served as the ATS Account Manager for the Clinton School District for nine months, where he oversees the daily custodial and maintenance operations of the district. This past school year was a challenge for everyone, and the janitorial services in the district played an important role in keeping our schools clean, healthy, safe, and open during an unprecedented school year.

Rhonda Mathies, ATS Regional Manager, states, “Nine months ago, C.L. stepped into the management position without any hesitation. He has boosted the morale of the ATS staff and leads by example. He continues to be dedicated to his staff and the Clinton School District. C.L. has a positive attitude even when facing some very tough situations. ATS is blessed to have C.L. on our team!”

Clinton School District Superintendent, Destry Brown, says, “C.L. goes above and beyond to make sure our buildings and grounds are cared for. His work ethic is phenomenal and he does a great job of staying on top of things before problems occur. He is just an amazing person as well as a Maintenance Director.”

Help us congratulate C.L. on this well-deserved recognition!

Welcome to the family!

The Clinton School District has selected Miranda White as the principal of Clinton Intermediate School beginning with the 2021-2022 school year. 

Mrs. White will bring 21 years of experience to the students and staff at Clinton Intermediate School.  Miranda began her career in the LaMonte School District where, for 19 years, she taught a variety of grade levels, served as the PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports) coach, and Instructional Coach. For the past two years, Miranda has served as the principal at Glasgow Elementary.  Her primary responsibilities were curriculum development and enrichment, student discipline, teacher evaluation, and supervision of a variety of PK-12 school activities.  

Miranda has a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a Master’s in Educational Technology, both from Central Missouri State University. In 2019, she graduated from William Woods University with a Specialist degree in Administration.

Miranda and her husband, Joe, who works for Mossy Oak, have been married for 20 years this summer.  They have two children, Austynn Evelyne (15) and Cooper Pete (12). The family owns a farm near Marshall Junction where they enjoy rehabilitating wild animals, which include squirrels and raccoons, and they can’t wait to have a skunk! 

Superintendent Destry Brown says, “Miranda is full of positive energy and has strong communication skills.  She will be highly-visible at CIS.  She is very personable and approachable and will establish strong connections with students, staff, and families of our students.  We are excited to have her as our new principal at Clinton Intermediate School.”

Miranda is looking forward to beginning her work with the students and staff of CIS, “From the moment I sat down for my interview with the faculty and staff of CIS, I felt like we were already friends!  We laughed and talked about shared interests in a variety of things. But, most importantly, I felt as though we shared the same values and ideals for where we could take Clinton Intermediate School.  I can’t wait to serve the teachers and students at CIS!  Joining the Clinton School District family is a blessing and I very much look forward to working with an amazing, dynamic team of administrators.   

Hang onto your hats….it’s going be a GREAT YEAR!”  

Help us welcome Miranda to the Cardinal family!
