History

Opened in 1868, Muncie High School produced a first graduating class of six students.[where?] In 1881, the school was renamed Muncie Central High School, and in 1915 it moved to a four-story building on South High Street in Muncie. In the early 1920s, it was one of Indiana's first schools to adopt a mascot.[citation needed]

In 1974, the school moved to its present location on Walnut Street in downtown Muncie. The school was originally open concept with almost no interior walls, but it has since been remodeled to a traditional format.[citation needed]

After the 2013–2014 school year, Muncie Central merged with Muncie Southside High School to form one high school.[citation needed]

In November 2021, students at Muncie Central organized Black Lives Matter protests, held outside of the school. The controversy began after police officers working at the school were offended by a pro-BLM poster, created by a 16-year old student for a school project and hung in the hallway by a teacher. School administrators decided to move the posters into the teacher’s classroom and the officers were transferred to other buildings. The decision was viewed by students as a violation of their freedom of speech. The protests made Muncie Central cancel several in-person school days while an investigation into the events took place. The protests at Muncie Central gained nationwide media attention.[2][3][4]

Athletics

The Muncie boys team won the Indiana High School Boys Basketball Tournament (IHSAA) in 1928, 1931, 1951, 1952, 1963, 1978, 1979 and 1988. The boys team won the IHSAA cross country tournament in 1956, 1958 and 1967. The girls volleyball team won the state tournament in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2010.[5]

Muncie Central High School also is the site of the Muncie Fieldhouse, the fourth-largest high school gym in the United States.[6]

Music

As a participant in Indiana State Fair Band Day, the Muncie Central Spirit of Muncie Band and Guard has been crowned Champion twice, in 2014 and 2021.[7] Muncie Southside, prior to merging with Muncie Central, won five Band Day Championships, including three consecutive from 2002-2004. Muncie Southside finished first or second at the State Fair in 12 of 13 years, starting in 2000 and concluding with their final competition in 2013.[8]
