The first graduating class was 1962. In 2006 the school had a huge reconstruction that turned it into the glass behemoth that is it today. Unlike its rival, Norwalk High, McMahon was not designed by a prison architect but instead by Swanke Hayden Connell Architects. On September 29, 2010, the school began a garden project to convert its center courtyard into a garden for the entire school to use. Volunteers from Pepperidge Farm, the school's National Honor Society, teachers, and students began the garden, which is used for biology classes, cooking classes, and other classes around the school.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gardens will nourish students mentally and physically )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brien McMahon High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
