History

East Noble High School originated from the school consolidations ^[4] that occurred in Indiana in the 1950s and 1960s, due to an act of the Indiana General Assembly. ^[5] During this time, the high schools in Rome City, Avilla, and Kendallville were repurposed into junior high/middle schools. In 1966, construction of East Noble High School was completed and the first class entered East Noble that fall. East Noble's first graduating class was in 1967.^{[ citation needed ]}
