Built as Cabin Creek District High School in 1912, the school was later renamed East Bank High School. It served the upper Kanawha Valley for eighty-seven years before a 1999 consolidation with Dupont High School formed Riverside High School. Jerry West, a College All-American who played on the 1960 U.S. Olympic basketball team and later became an NBA All-Star, graduated from East Bank High School in 1956.
