Clover Middle School 7th and 8th grade band students went to Disney in Orlando Florida this past weekend to perform in the Disney Imagination Campus Instrumental Track Sight-Reading Session.
The students learned some Classic Disney themes such as “Whistle while you work” and “It’s a small world after all.” They also were selected to play music from the Disney movie Tangled.
The students learned the main theme to the music in 15 minutes. They were treated like real studio musicians. They recorded several tracks and made a final recording with the real animation from the movie in the background. Students also got to go to Epcot, Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios.

Clover School District (CSD) celebrated the ground breaking for Liberty Hill Elementary this morning.
Liberty Hill Elementary is slated to open in August 2026. When completed, the school will accommodate 900 students in grades preK through fifth grade. Liberty Hill is co-located on the Cannonball Run site with Lake Wylie High School .
Today's ceremony opened with the presentation of colors by the Clover High School Air Force Junior ROTC. Bethel Elementary first grader Cooper Burris led guests in the Pledge of Allegiance. A saxophone quartet from Clover High School performed the National Anthem. Chief Financial Officer Ken Love offered the invocation.
Board of Trustees Chair Rob Wallace delivered the welcome. In her remarks, Superintendent Sheila Quinn recounted the historical significance of the school's site:
"Liberty Hill Elementary will always be a history lesson. The land on which the school is being built started as a royal land grant to Colonel William “Billy” Hill in the 1700s. Col. Hill and Isaac Hayne operated Hill’s Iron Works here. Hill and Hayne used iron from the Nanny’s Mountain area to manufacture cannons, ammunition and swords which they sold to the patriots. A group calling themselves “Patriots of York County” met at the Iron Works in June 1780 and resolved to fight for independence, despite threats from the British. On June 18, 1780, the iron works was destroyed in an attack by the British. Seven people were killed, Hayne was captured and later released and Hill escaped to fight four weeks later in Brattonsville. Hill would later serve as a judge in York County and was the first state senator York County sent to the legislature," Quinn said.
The ceremony concluded with past and present School Board members putting on their hard hats and picking up their shovels to break ground.
