History
East Noble High School originated from the school consolidations that occurred in Indiana in the 1950s and 1960s, due to an act of the Indiana General Assembly. 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.
The school's theatre director was nominated for a Tony Award in 2016.
The school switched to using educational technology during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
