History

GlenOak High School (1976 – present) was the combination of Glenwood and Oakwood high schools. This was done in part because of the difficulty for Glenwood’s vocational students to maintain an identity with their home school while spending most of the day at Oakwood for vocational classes. “GlenOak” represents the combining of the Glenwood and Oakwood names. The Golden Eagle was picked as the mascot which the eagle was Glenwood’s mascot along with Oakwood’s green and gold as the school colors. Originally, when the two high schools came together, GlenOak West, formerly Glenwood High School, housed Freshman and Sophomores; and GlenOak East, formerly Oakwood High School housed Juniors and Seniors. The fall of 2006 saw the opening of the “new” GlenOak High School campus on the old Smith farm spanning between Schneider and Easton uniting the two campuses into one. The “new” GlenOak High School embraces the concept of a community campus by bringing in supportive services to be convenient and help the families of the Plain Local School District. Currently, the Plain branch of the Stark County District Library and Child and Adolescent Services are part of the campus. Another benefit, is that the high school is part of the Stark Parks Trail system.
