[7] That building was repurposed as a middle school after the current high school building was completed in 1972. [6]

Students from Mantua Township had attended Pitman High School as part of a sending/receiving relationship until Clearview Regional High School opened in September 1960. Pitman officials had notified the Mantua Township School District that its incoming ninth grade students could no longer be accepted at the Pitman school after September 1958. [8] [9]
