History

Opened in 1961, Mathews High School serves students grades 9-12

Mathews was formed in 1961, following the consolidation of Vienna Centralized School, which opened in 1915, and Fowler Township School. [2] In 1983, the school district was renamed from Fowler-Vienna Local School District to Mathews Local School District. [3]

in 1995, a fire broke out on the 3rd floor of the high school, causing $1,000,000 in damages ($2.1-2.13 million today), the entire 3rd floor of the building was renovated, with new computers, textbooks, walls, floors, doors, etc. [4]

This high school campus now houses students grades 6-12 as of 2022, following the closures of Neal Middle School in 2011. and Baker School in 2022. Currie Elementary School was closed following the 2023-24 school year, and its K-5 students are now housed at Baker School. [5]

On January 17, 2014, the floor of the Vienna Memorial Auditorium was renamed "Rex Leach Court" after Rex Leach, the all-star player for the former Vienna Flyers, who actively holds numerous state records. [6]
