Acknowledgments
Ann Ellis Sheek (Class of 1954), a former journalist for the Clemmons Courier, wrote extensively about Clemmons School and its sports teams over the years. Her contributions to preserving the school’s history are invaluable, and the volume of her work included in this website is too extensive to cite individually. We extend our sincere gratitude to Ann for allowing the use of her articles throughout this site.
Many of the photographs featured here were originally collected by the school’s memorabilia committee, who gathered them from various sources. Beyond these photos, the content on this website represents a paraphrased compilation of materials from a wide range of resources. The primary known sources are listed below:
