==School district history==<br />
<br />
Clay County High School opened in 1949, a combination of high schools at Fort Gaines and Bluffton<ref>The News Record, May 19, 1949</ref>. The two consolidated for financial reasons. The state of Georgia only allotted 13 teachers for Clay's white schools, four fewer than a year previous<ref>The News Record, May 19, 1949</ref>. Clay County High School received only four of these.<br />
<br />
A. Speight High School closed after total integration with Clay County in 1970. In 1980<ref>Columbus Daily Enquirer, Sept. 29, 1980</ref>, Clay and Randolph County high schools combined to form Randolph-Clay. Quitman County was originally included in plans, but was dropped as the school would have had more students than planned<ref>Columbus Daily Enquirer, Jan. 12, 1978</ref>. Quitman County later combined with Stewart County to form Stewart-Quitman.<br />
<br />
Georgia had multi-county high schools at Randolph-Clay, Stewart-Quitman, Mitchell-Baker, Tri-County and Greene-Taliaferro in the 1980s and 1990s. Randolph-Clay is the only one still operating.<br />
