Principal Stanley Laing made the announcement and commented about the promotion from within the Clark family, “Congratulations to Steve McGhee as our new head football coach and athletic coordinator. Coach McGhee is replacing Coach Alexander, who is retiring at the end of this school year. The success in all our athletic programs is no secret. A lot of that has to do with the consistency in our athletic program over the years and coaches committed to developing our students through the spirit of competition along with demanding successful student learning in the classroom. Under Coach McGhee’s direction, that will continue.”
