Rootstown Middle SchoolEdit
Rootstown Middle School
Roostown Middle School is housed in the original Rootstown Township School, which opened in 1917. The building, named in honor of Mabel Schnee, is located on the south end of the campus and served as the home of all grades until the opening of the neighboring elementary school in 1958 and served as the high school until the current high school opened in 1966. Several additions have been made to the building over the years including: a gymnasium and additional classrooms in 1939; An industrial arts classroom along with more classrooms in 1950; as well as additions in 1954 and 1977. In 1998, a bell tower was constructed adjacent to the middle school and dedicated in honor of Dorothy Dundon. The Board of Education had originally purchased the bell in 1884 for about $60 and restored it when the bell tower was constructed. In 2004, a sixth grade team from Rootstown Middle School took first place at the International Bowl competition for the Future Problem Solving program in the Junior Division (grades 4–6).
