Chapman High School (Inman, South Carolina)

Chapman High School is a high school located in Inman, South Carolina, United States. The current facility opened in 2006, leaving the previous building for its main influx institution, Mabry Junior High, to expand. The current principal is Mr. Ty Dawkins. The former principal, Mrs. Stephanie Mathis, now works at the District Office. Chapman is the successor to Inman High School as it was outgrown. The school's mascot is a panther, modified from the "purple panther" used in the early years of the school's establishment in 1954. The colors and "paw" trademark are very similar to those used by nearby Clemson University in Clemson. There is a wide array of sports, arts programs and social opportunities, most notably the Chapman Panthers football team and the National Beta Club. In 2007, the football team made it to the state championship for the first time in history. The only time they had previously come close to such a feat was the semi-finals in 1988. They lost to Cheraw High School of Chesterfield.
