[edit] History
The school is now closed as it gave way to a more modern high school West Ashley High School. The former school was located West of the Ashley in Charleston, S.C. at 1776 William Kennerty Dr. just of SC hwy 61. The school was first opened in 1970 and closed its doors as a high school in 2000.
Middleton Won the State Championship in 4-AAAA football in 1982. It also led the state in other sports like Track and Field, Baseball, and soccer.
Middleton High experienced a significant phenomena between the years of 1984 and 1990. The faculty, staff and parents of MHS created a synergy and exhilaration from excellence in Academis, Sports, and the Arts. It was more the rule than the exception that the star athletes were also featured in the vocal programs.
Charleston parents began removing their children from area private schools (Porter Gaud, Ashley Hall, Bishop England) and enrolling them in Middleton.
All of the former Middleton High School Alumni can be found of the Alumni site.[1][2]
