Childersburg High School is a rural public high school located in the small rural town of Childersburg, Alabama, directly off Highway 280 and thirty miles south of Birmingham. CHS serves the communities of Childersburg, Bon Air, and sections of Alpine and Sylacauga. Childersburg High was established in 1923; the original building is no longer standing, and the current building was finished in 2000. In 2022, CHS underwent yet another form of construction including physical, instructional, and cultural redesigns. The city has suffered numerous economic downturns over the past 20 years, including the closing of its second-largest employer, Avondale Mills, and a severe decrease in the workforce at its largest employer, Resolute Industries. The population has lost 800 people from the 2000 census to our current population of 4,689. Childersburg High School is one of seventeen schools in the Talladega County School System and serves approximately 350 students in grades 9-12.
