History

Originally, the cities of Kings Mountain and Shelby had their own school districts separate from Cleveland County Schools. In 2000, the school boards and the Cleveland County Commission approved a merger plan to consolidate the three systems into one. The State Board of Education approved the measure, however, the school board of the Kings Mountain School District filed suit to stop the merger. The courts did not accept their positions and the merger officially occurred in 2004.[2][3]

Student demographics

For the 2010–2011 school year, Cleveland County Schools had a total population of 16,417 students and 1,130.81 teachers on a (FTE) basis. This produced a student-teacher ratio of 14.52:1.[1] That same year, out of the student total, the gender ratio was 52% male to 48% female. The demographic group makeup was: Black, 26%; White, 64%; Hispanic, 4%; Asian/Pacific Islander, 1%; and American Indian, 0% (two or more races: 5%).[4] For the same school year, 59.84% of the students received free and reduced-cost lunches.[5]

Governance

The primary governing body of Cleveland County Schools follows a council–manager government format with a nine-member Board of Education appointing a Superintendent to run the day-to-day operations of the system. The school system currently resides in the North Carolina State Board of Education's Sixth District.[6]

The nine members of the Board of Education generally meet on the second Monday of each month. The current members of the board are: Robert Queen (Chair), Joel Shores (Vice Chair), Phillip Glover, Dena Green, Danny Blanton, Coleman Hunt, Rodney Fitch, Ron Humphries, and Greg Taylor.[7]

Superintendent

The current superintendent of the system is Dr. Stephen Fisher. He became superintendent July 1, 2014.[8] He followed Dr. Bruce Boyles who became superintendent in 2007 after spending 26 years in various positions in the Mooresville Graded School District.[9][10] Boyles replaces Gene Moore who resigned the position to accept a superintendent position in Lancaster County, South Carolina and the interim superintendent, Steve Borders.[11] Moore was the first superintendent of the newly merged system.[3]
