History

In 1899, township officials began to study the concept of centralization and consolidating schools into a single building. In February 1901, the issue of centralizing schools was placed before the electorate. The issue lost by a margin of 53 votes in favour and 44 against. The issue was later declared illegal, as the board of education learned it had the sole legal right to determine centralization.

On 18 April 1904, voters approved a resolution to establish a high school in Boardman. Prior to 1904, students attended eight one-room schoolhouses scattered throughout the township. Later that year, the first centralized school was built on Market Street near the site of the present Boardman Center Intermediate School.

Prior to the 1917-1918 school year, the district only offered two years of high school, with those wanting four years of high school education having to finish their studies in nearby Youngstown. By 1922, the district had established a music program, which to this day is highly acclaimed. [6] In 1935, the high school adopted the nickname of Spartans after the name was submitted in a school newspaper contest.

By the early 1950s, the centralized school building had started to become overcrowded. In response, the board of education adopted a policy of decentralization of schools, which saw the construction of Market Street, West Boulevard, Stadium Drive, and Robinwood Lane elementary schools later in the decade and Glenwood Junior High School in 1961. In 1969, a new high school building was opened on Glenwood Avenue, replacing the original centralized school building on Market Street. [7]
