History

MTHS was founded in 1968 with only a ninth grade class; previously, high school students from the township attended nearby Boonton High School. [6] For the first two years of its existence the school was lodged in what was then referred to as Central School (now named Robert R. Lazar School, located on Change Bridge Road, within sight of the new high school). An additional grade was added in each of the following three years. In September 1970, the student body moved into the new building (located on Horseneck Road), built on what was formerly The Sunset Dairy Farm, a.k.a. Sisco Tract; constructed at a cost of $4 million (equivalent to $31.4 million in 2023), the new facility opened with only classrooms open and no gym, library or other facilities completed. [7] The initial class to complete all four years at MTHS graduated in 1972. [8]

The first principal of the High School was Dr. Arthur Dermer, [9] followed by Dr. Timothy Dyas. Another long-serving principal was Dr. Clifford Keezer. After the initial recruitment of a high school staff in 1968, the Montville School District gradually added to the faculty as it became a full four-year school.

The mascot adopted by the Board of Education for the high school suitably fit with the several horse/riding farms within the township.

The auditorium of the High School is named in honor of Dr. Robert O. Stafford, who was raised in the township and was a long-time teacher and administrator at MTHS.
