East High School opened in 1925 and operated as a high school until the late 1990s. During the 2007-2008 school year East Elementary School was housed at East High School serving grades K-8. The following year, East was reestablished after the voters of Kansas City Missouri and Independence, MO voted for Van Horn High School and six other schools to be given to the Independence School District.
In November 2007, the voters of Independence Public School District and Kansas City, Missouri School District, voted for seven schools which consists of Van Horn High School, one middle school, and five elementary schools to be taken over by the Independence School District.[1]
