Marion Local High School is a public high school located in Maria Stein, Ohio, United States. As of the 2024–25 school year, the school has 306 students enrolled. The students are from Maria Stein and several surrounding communities, including Cassella, Chickasaw, St. Rose and St. Sebastian in Mercer County, Osgood in Darke County, as well as a small portion of Auglaize County. These communities were served by a series of local one-room school houses that still stand in Chickasaw, Minster, St. Rose and St. Sebastian. In 1922 a two-year high school was established in Maria Stein and in 1930 a three-story brick school (named St. John's School) was completed directly across from St. John's Church. In 1955 the Marion Local Consolidated School District was established and charged with strengthening the educational opportunities for students in the six member communities. The Marion Local School District built a new high school, Marion Local High School, in Maria Stein in 1957.
