Albion Senior High School was a secondary school located in Albion, Michigan which served students in grades 9–12. It was a part of Albion Public Schools. As of 2006, the school principal was Ms. Debra Swartz. Albion was known for its traditionally strong boys basketball and track and field programs. The school board announced on June 11, 2013, that all Albion High School students would be attending Marshall High School starting in the fall of 2013. The decision was made to close Albion Senior High School because of a $1.1 million deficit. The local school board decided to re-purpose the school's infrastructure as the district's only elementary school; the school board said that this would result in a saving of $900,000.[1]
