History
Maplewood High School was established in 1961, when the Johnston, Greene, and Mecca school systems formally merged to create the modern Maplewood Local School District.[3]
Entering the 21st century, declining enrollment significantly impacted the structure of the high school. District officials reported a steady loss of students beginning around 2000, prompting discussions about restructuring facilities. As a result, in 2017 the district reorganized its buildings, and Maplewood High School was expanded to include grades 7 through 12, increasing its role within the district.[4]
