HISTORY

MacArthur Junior High School began in 1971, as part of MacArthur High School, with Mr. Buddy Braddy serving as its first principal.  In 1978 a new separate facility was opened with Mr. Braddy continuing to serve as principal until 1979 when he moved to the central office as the new Director of Student Personnel. 

Since opening its doors as a separate school facility in 1978, MacArthur Junior High School has stood as a symbol of pride in the east Lawton community.  It is staffed with dedicated teaching professionals and a classified staff working in partnership with parents and others to provide the finest middle-level education possible. 

Under the capable leadership of Mr. Jerry Boucher 1979-90, Mr. Odell Gunter 1990-91, Ms. Linda Dzialo 1991-97, Dr. Will Anderson 1997-98,  Mr. Robert Roshell 1998-00, and most recently Mrs. Monts 1998-00, MacArthur Junior High School has continued to reach new heights of student achievement and accomplishment.  Today the leadership of the district and the school, working with parents and others in the school community, stand united to prepare our students to live successfully I the twenty-first century.
