Mapleton High School is a public high school in Orange Township, near Ashland, Ohio, United States. It was created in 1962 by merging the high schools in Polk and Ruggles-Troy.[3] (Nova's high school had previously merged with Ruggles to create Ruggles-Troy). It is the only high school in the Mapleton Local School District and serves approximately 290 students in grades 9 to 12. Athletic teams are known as the Mounties with school colors of royal blue and red.[4]

Athletics

The Mounties are members of the Firelands Conference and have been since 1963.[5] They sport the colors of royal blue and red for athletic competitions.

In August 2014, Mapleton became an affiliate member of the Mid-Buckeye Conference for girls soccer.[6]

Location

All three of the Mapleton buildings are located on one campus at the southeast corner of County Roads 801 and 620, about 3 miles north of Nankin, Ohio.[7] Mountie Drive runs through campus and connects CR 801 with CR 620 after winding by all three buildings. Despite Mountie Drive serving as the mailing address for the high school[8] and the elementary school,[9] the middle school still uses CR 801 for its address.[10]
