In 2000, Maryville Intermediate School opened to serve all fifth and sixth graders in Maryville City Schools. For 12 years, the MIS Explorers proudly played an important role in the MCS community.
In 2010, Maryville City Schools began exploring the possibility of building an additional school and reorganizing grade levels across the district. The intermediate program became the centerpiece of a comprehensive grade reconfiguration plan, which was implemented during the 2012 school year.
As part of this district-wide initiative, Maryville Intermediate School was “reopened” and reconfigured in 2012 as one of two intermediate schools in the district.
The name Montgomery Ridge Intermediate School is inspired by our location on Montgomery Lane and the beautiful view of the mountains from the ridge on which our school is situated.
