Maryville High School is the public high school for Maryville, Missouri. It is the only institution to have the Spoofhound for a mascot.[2] It is a Missouri State High School Activities Association Class III school. The present high school building on the southwest side of Maryville opened in the 1965-66 school year.

The school is officially Maryville R-II High School. The R-II refers to 1959 consolidation when 23 school districts voted to reorganize as one district. The reorganization involved the main Maryville school along with 22 rural districts that had one-room school houses. Several other communities in Nodaway County voted in the same election (e.g., R-I, R-II, R-III, etc.) and Maryville was the R-II district in that consolidation.[3]
