History

In 2017 the school re-purposed two locker rooms below the gymnasium and washing machines in order to accommodate homeless students. The non-profit organization Chapman-Richards Cares donated a washing machine to the school. About 100 students at the time were homeless.

In July 2017, a flood caused about $3 million in damages to the school.

High School Musical

Much of the Disney Channel film High School Musical and parts of its two sequels, High School Musical 2 and High School Musical 3: Senior Year, were filmed at East High. As a result, the school has become a destination for some tourists. In the summer of 2007, the school received 40 to 50 visitors per day who wanted to visit the location of the film.

In November 2007, the school performed its own production of High School Musical. Demand for tickets was so strong that the school added an extra performance.

Sexual misconduct and assaults

In 2007, three members of the football team were arrested and charged with various offences including forcible sodomy, attempted forcible sodomy and sexual abuse. Incidents similar to this occurred three times during the same season. The players were removed from the football team and expelled from school. In March 2008, one of the defendants was found guilty of two first degree felonies: forcible sexual abuse and attempted forcible sodomy, in addition to a misdemeanor charge of lewdness; he also faces additional sex and assault charges for an incident with two children he was baby-sitting. He was ordered into custody, where he was sentenced to mandatory therapy, and was directed to write apology letters to his victims.

In December 2008, five students were suspended and "referred to police" after assaulting a classmate.

In 2012, a Woods Cross High School soccer player was blatantly fouled by an East High School player with an intentional knee to the head. The assault was filmed and the video then uploaded to Internet video sharing site YouTube. The offending soccer player later apologized.
