History

East High School first opened in 1925. For the 2007–2008 school year, the building was used to house East Elementary School, which served grades K–8.

In November 2007, voters approved a boundary change that transferred seven schools from Kansas City Public Schools to the Independence Public School District, including the nearby Van Horn High School. [2] Following this transfer, East was reestablished as a high school for the 2008–2009 school year, serving residents of eastern portions of the district who were previously served by Van Horn. [3]
