History
In the 1820s in Plain Township, schooling had been taught in log cabins. In 1821, a frame school building was built on Central College; the teacher was Jacob Smith. In 1874, a new brick school was built in the Village.
In 1955, the Ohio General Assembly eliminated the requirement that cities and school districts have common borders.[3]
The current New Albany High School was built in 1996. The school was expanded in 2002 to include an additional academic wing with offices, a new high school football stadium and additional locker rooms. Those improvements were completed in 2004.[4]
Facilities
Part of New Albany's building project in 1996 was the completion of a natatorium. This facility is open to the community, as well as the students. It also hosts home meets for the New Albany Swimming and Diving team.[5]
Built in 2008, The McCoy Center for the Arts is a multi-use art center with 35,000 square feet (3,300 m2) and includes a 786-seat auditorium with balcony seating, partial fly loft, a large lobby, rehearsal studio, dance studio, scene shop and art classrooms. The McCoy Company and New Albany-Plain Local School District both share the building.[6]
In 2013, an artificial turf football field was built inside the old football stadium. The football stadium was renamed "Veterans Field" in honor of all the alumni who served in the armed forces. The football field was an addition that was completely funded by donations from the public.[7]
