East Stroudsburg Area Senior High School North opened its doors on August 28, 2000. The school was built in an effort to address population growth in the northern side of the East Stroudsburg Area School District. The building, which is shared with the Lehman Intermediate School, took two years to construct.
Prior to the North campus opening, students who were to attend the new school expressed a desire to choose the school colors and mascot. The School Board agreed, and a poll was sent to the upperclassmen with several options. In early 2000, the Board approved the student-selected colors of carolina blue, black, and silver, with the timberwolf as the mascot.
