St. Mary Central Catholic High School was founded by the Rev. Joseph S. Widmann in 1902 and was located at the present high school building. Twenty-five students were enrolled at St. Mary’s that first year. A two-year program was offered with commercial courses for vocational skills in order for students to later assume positions in the business community. Beginning in the fall of 1920, freshmen and sophomore classwork in the classic and scientific areas was introduced. In 1923-24, the year of the first four-year graduating class, St. Mary’s High School received a charter from the Ohio Dept. of Education. It is the second oldest school in the Diocese of Toledo. Prior to 1902, no Catholic post-elementary education was available in the Sandusky area. SMCC offers over 80 individual courses within its 12 academic departments. Courses include Advanced Placement and Honors in Science, Math, Social Studies and English. Students can now earn college credits for some courses offered by SMCC.
