Clyde A. Erwin High School, Public high school in Buncombe County, United States
Clyde A. Erwin High School is a public high school on Lees Creek Road in Asheville, Buncombe County, North Carolina. The campus includes classrooms, technology labs, and sports facilities spread across the grounds.
The school was named after Clyde A. Erwin, who served as North Carolina's Superintendent of Public Instruction in the mid-20th century. It was built to serve the growing population in the western part of Buncombe County.
The school's teams compete under the name Warriors, and the red and white colors appear throughout the campus on buildings, courts, and fields. Sports events draw students, families, and neighbors together on a regular basis.
The school sits on Lees Creek Road in Asheville and is easiest to reach by car. Visitors should check the school's access policy in advance, as entry to the campus during the school day is generally restricted.
Clyde A. Erwin worked as a teacher and principal before becoming the state's top education official, which makes the school's name a direct nod to someone who spent time in classrooms rather than just in offices. That connection to classroom teaching is something many visitors would not guess from a school name alone.
