[edit | edit source]

Western Reserve was built in the fall of 1966 and served students grades 9-12.

As Warren's population declined in the 1980's, along with the high school facing budget constraints, Western Reserve decided to consolidate with neighboring Warren G. Harding High School in 1990.[1] It was used as a middle school until sometime in the early 2000's when it was closed for good.[2]

as a part of the Warren City Schools redistricting process, it closed all but 4 middle schools in the Warren City Schools District, and demolished the remaining schools that were closes, including the former high school in 2011.[3][4]
