East High School (Waterloo, Iowa)
Waterloo East High School in Waterloo, Iowa, United States is a public high school consisting of approximately 1000 students in grades 9–12. It is a part of the Waterloo Community School District.
The school was founded at its current site in 1874, with the present building being built in 1918. In 1939, the Music and Industrial Arts wing was added, and the Fred J. Miller gymnasium was built in 1957. The "new wing" which includes a swimming pool and classrooms was built in 1962. In 1981 East High transformed from a three-year to a four year high school. In April 2002, a new administrative and counseling center and an addition that features a new cafeteria/commons, practice gymnasium, wrestling room and locker rooms were opened. The old cafeteria area on the 4th floor was converted into eight new classrooms. The newly renovated Elizabeth A. H. Green Auditorium reopened in October 2007. The Reggie Roby Fitness Center was opened in 2008. Additional renovations will take place in the years to come, funded by a local 1 cent local option sales tax.
On October 8, 2025, it was revealed that East and Waterloo West would be consolidated into one school. That same day, it was revealed to be under the “Waterloo United.”
East High is known throughout the state for its diverse student body consisting of proportions of minority students that far outpace the state averages. African Americans, Bosnian, and, increasingly, Hispanic students make up a significant portion of the student body alongside White students.[citation needed]
The racial makeup of the school during the 2015–16 school year was 49% White, 33% African-American, 11% Hispanic, 5% multiracial and 2% from other races.[citation needed]
The Trojans compete in the Iowa Alliance Conference in the following sports:
The East High Trojans have a long tradition of athletics in high school achievements and in athletes who have gone on to play collegiately and professionally. Alumni include NFL all-Pro punter and 1980s All-Decade Team member Reggie Roby, NFL wide receiver/returner J.J. Moses, and MLB player Rich Folkers.
East High's men's basketball team is the marquee program at the school and has a long tradition of success, consistently reaching the state tournament and cracking national rankings at times. The Trojans have won state tournaments in 1974 (Class 2A), 1990 (3A) and 2003 (4A), and were runners-up in 1960 (A), 1991 (3A), 2002 (4A), and 2004 (4A).[citation needed] Head Coach Steve McGraw won his 500th game during the 2003 state tournament and was featured on the cover of the best-selling Successful Coaching textbook in 2004.
