Malabar High School was a public high school located in Mansfield, Ohio, United States. The school served grades 9-12 and was part of the Mansfield City School District from 1963 to its closing in 1989.[2]
Malabar was built to accommodate Mansfield's population boom after World War II. The school was named after Malabar Farm, which belonged to writer and Mansfield native Louis Bromfield[3] At the start of the 1988-89 school year, the school board announced that due to the district's shrinking enrollment, the school would have to be closed. Malabar's last graduating class was 1989.
