History

The original East High School was open from 1925 to 1998, when it was converted to a middle school. The middle school closed following the 2006 winter quarter. A new building reopened as a high school in 2007, following the closing and consolidation of Rayen High School and Woodrow Wilson High School.

In its first incarnation, East's athletic teams were known as the Sunrisers, from 1925 to 1949. In 1950, the mascot was changed to the Golden Bears. When the school was preparing to re-open in 2007, students voted on what to name their athletic teams, and they decided on the Panthers, to the dismay of some alumni who wanted to see the Golden Bears resurrected. However, in 2017, the name was reverted to Golden Bears, and the school colors were changed from the updated light blue/silver back to navy and gold. [3]

The Youngstown City Series was an OHSAA athletic conference that began play in 1925 and lasted until the end of the 2006–07 school year. Its members were located in the city of Youngstown, Ohio, although membership was eventually extended to Timken High School in Canton, Ohio. Some of the schools closed during the league's tenure, while the rest left prior to the closings or at the league's demise.

This is a list of high school athletic conferences in the Northeast Region of Ohio, as defined by the OHSAA. Because the names of localities and their corresponding high schools do not always match and because there is often a possibility of ambiguity with respect to either the name of a locality or the name of a high school, the following table gives both in every case, with the locality name first, in plain type, and the high school name second in boldface type. The school's team nickname is given last.
