November 25, 1970, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern
Fifty years is a long time and is it no wonder things evolve, even in education? Starting life as a junior high, Maplewood is now a middle school, according to the Menasha School District web site, serving grades six through eight, whereas the junior high had taught students in grades seven through nine. According to my newspaper research, Maplewood then became a middle school in 1991, reopening after being used for a time by the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley. But then, around the mid 1990's I see it once again being referred to as a junior high. I'm confused by all the back and forth. Needless to say, things change.
