Maclay School
Maclay School is an independent, non-sectarian college-preparatory school in Tallahassee, Florida. History In the late 1960s, a group of white parents raised funds to create a segregation academy in response to the federally mandated racial integration of Leon County Schools.

Maclay Jr., a World War II veteran whose mother was a major benefactor and whose father's estate became Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park. The school's campus is bounded on two sides by the park. Construction on the first campus buildings was completed in a year and a half for $150,000 ($ today), allowing the school to open on September 9, 1968, with eight teachers and 138 students.

McClay
McClay is a Scottish surname. It is a Highland’s adaption of the Irish Gaelic ''Mac Duinnshléibhe'' (Anglicised Donlevy) where the Scots aspirated the “D” and then dropped the final “e” from the Irish language form of the name. When the north-eastern Irish kingdom of Ulaid fell to John de Courcy in 1177, many of the MacDonlevy dynasty sought asylum in the Highlands of Scotland. Their MacDonlevy surname evolved there first to Maconlea, also, MacConloy, McCloy and, then, to MacALeavy, MacAlea, MacLea, MacLay, McClay and, even, Leevy, Levy (surname) and Leavy. Some sources contend that the surname McClay, like the surname MacKinley, arises instead from a Gaelic language nickname given the MacDonlevy in both the Scottish Highlands and elsewhere. That nickname is Mac an Leigh, translating to English as leech, but meaning a physician. Leeching (medical) was in Gaelic Ireland, Scotland and elsewhere for millennium a pervasive medical therapy. The MacDonlevy were also one of ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
