McClain High School is located in Greenfield, Ohio. Edward Lee McClain was born in 1861 and grew up in Greenfield. He became wealthy through his hard work, vision and industry development. A philanthropist and lifetime resident of southern Ohio, Mr. McClain presented the community with a gift to build a school, which began construction in 1914. The high school is a wonderful facility loaded with paintings, murals, statues throughout the classrooms and hallways – magnificent and a must see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Edward Lee McClain presented his gift, his chief idea was having an institution for the \u2018 betterment and happiness\u2019 of the individuals involved. Over a hundred years later the McClain High School continues to transform, redesigning a building exclusively for the physical development of the student athlete. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The school now has a 10,000 square foot strength and conditioning space and a former athletic director, strength coach, college and professional football player – Mark Bihl – selected to manage and develop the school’s athletic performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A great addition and place for each student athlete to train and Get Strong.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
