Methacton High School (believed to be an American Indian term for "windy hill.") was falsely believed to be renamed from the Lower Providence-Worcester Joint Junior-Senior High School with the first class graduating in 1964
The origin of the school's name is believed to be an American Indian term for "windy hill." The first thing accomplished as the two districts merged was the opening of the Lower Providence-Worcester Joint Junior-Senior High School in 1961. The school was later named Methacton, and graduated its first class in 1964.
