Secure Schools, Healthy Environments,
Bright Futures
Our mission is simple: prepare every Mantua Township student for lifelong success through strong academics, community partnerships, and character education.
As the Board of Education and district administration planned for the future, we recognized that strategic infrastructure projects would strengthen that mission and preserve the community pride that makes Mantua a special place.
After carefully prioritizing projects for the December 9 referendum, the district focused on initiatives that would:
Secure $8.9 million in state aid
Enhance learning environments
Strengthen safety, security, and operational efficiency
Protect our community’s investment for decades more

Sewell Elementary School's 1912 Castle Wing, facing Spruce Street, would be replaced with four modern, accessible kindergarten classrooms. Architectural features of the original structure would be maintained in the new design.
An addition at Sewell Elementary School, facing McAnally Drive, would provide space for seven preschool classrooms, a Main Office, bathrooms, a conference room, and a Small Group Interaction room.

Mantua’s preschool program is in high demand and funded by the state. In fact, the district received $3,504,000 for this school year. To maintain this valuable resource for the community, the district must provide appropriate facilities. Consolidating all preschool into one building – instead of the current split between J. Mason Tomlin and Sewell – creates a more cohesive learning environment for our youngest students, enhances collaboration and streamlines resources.
