As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 1,365 students and 90.31 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 15:1.^[5] There were 89 students (6.5% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 6 (0.4% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.^[6]

CB East has two feeder middle schools: Holicong Middle School, and a portion of Tohickon Middle School.^[3] Prior to the building of Central Bucks High School South, portions of Tamanend Middle School was also a feeder school. CB East has a student population of 1,528, making it the second largest high school in the Central Bucks School District.^[5] The school's students follow a block scheduling system in which students take 83-minute classes for one semester, or half of each school year.^[7]

CB East has undergone several additions and renovations since it was opened in 1969. Just a few years after opening, the school faced overcrowding and a two-story addition was constructed that featured "open space" concept classrooms. In 1997 a new wing of classrooms, a new auxiliary gym, and a new, larger library were added.^[12] In 2010 the school, now over 40 years old, began a multimillion-dollar addition and renovation project that would encompass the entire school and take several years to complete. The project included the addition of a new science and technology wing with 14 science labs, several computer labs, and a large filming studio.^[13] The main lobby was expanded into a two-story atrium, and almost every space in the building received new flooring, modern, efficient lighting with occupancy sensors, and new Smart Board projection systems. The project was completed in 2013.^[14] In 2015, the school's Athletic Facility was reconstructed, consisting of a new football Stadium and bleachers for the East Patriots Team, as well as a new track field and tennis courts.^[15] Beginning in the 2019–2020 school year, after a successful pilot at Holicong Middle School, all sophomores and juniors received laptops as a part of the district’s 1:1 initiative for use in the classroom.
