It was named after Martin County Schools Superintendent Sheldon Clark when both Warfield High School and Inez High School was consolidated in 1972. As of 2017^[update] Martha Williams is the principal.^[3] The original Sheldon Clark High School building had to be abandoned after nearby road construction blasting resulted in structural damage, with the school then being housed in a middle school building until a new high school could be built.^[4] Construction of the new school, Martin County High School, started in 2016 with the school opening for the 2019–2020 school year.^[5][6][7]
