The school was built in 2010 as a result of continued growth and economic development in the area. Prior 1996, the middle school students were a part of a unit school, McAdory High School. In 1996, McAdory Elementary opened as a K-5 school, and the middle school students remained a part of McAdory High. Because the area began to experience tremendous growth and had evolved from a rural to a more suburban community, the need for a school for middle schoolers emerged. In 2010, McAdory Middle School was built.
