Glenbard East High School opened its doors in September 1959, with a student body of 525 students and 28 staff members. The approximate enrolment for the 2006/2007 school year was 2700 students and 180 staff members. Prior to the opening of Glenbard East in 1959, Lombard students in High School District No. 87 attended Glenbard West in Glen Ellyn. The first Superintendent to serve the district was the late Fred L. Biester, who was Superintendent from 1918 until his death in 1962. In the spring of 1962, the Board of Education appointed Dr. Dean W. Strokes as Superintendent, followed by Mr. Raymond Livingston in 1978 and in 1984 Dr. Robert C. Stevens. Dr. Ron Smith was appointed as superintendent in May 1999. Dr. Timothy Hyland was appointed superintendent in 2002. Dr. Michael Meissen will be the new Superintendent effective July 1, 2006.The district population continued to grow rapidly and in the fall of 1972, a fourth school, Glenbard South, opened in the south part of the school district in Milton Township. The regional Office of Education, the State Board of Education, and the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools accredit Glenbard East High School. Graduation from a high school so accredited means recognition as a high school graduate by any college in the United States. [1]
