Slover Mountain High (Continuation) High School
Sue Forehand: Slover Mountain High School was the only school that I ever liked. The teachers were entertaining to the point that it made it enjoyable to go to school. Before I started at this school I was ready to quit school all together but because of them I graduated early, and now at the age of 52 I look back and remember what an awesome time I had.
