See Where High School Musical Was Born

4 Days   •   419 Miles

You know the songs like you know your own name. You’ve still got a fat crush on Zac Efron, even if you won’t admit it. You’ve binge-watched every episode of the new "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series" on Disney+ and loved every dramatic second of it. Now it’s time to plan a trip to the iconic Utah sites where the "High School Musical" movies and TV series were filmed.

This four-day itinerary is every fan’s guide to the High School Musical universe. It will take you to the stage where Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez made their musical debut, the golf resort and baseball diamond featured in "High School Musical 2" and to the real-life East High School in Salt Lake City where the cast once walked, sang and danced. 

Just like Troy and Gabriella, Utah’s heart can be found in two places: the surprisingly rich arts and cultural scenes in its urban spaces and its beautiful mountain and desert landscapes. Along with taking you to iconic film sites, this guide will throw you headfirst into both Utah’s performing arts scene and its sports and recreation experiences, with day one spent in the buzzing grid of downtown Salt Lake City and day two spent in the towering Wasatch Mountains that run like a spine down the city’s east edge.

Finally, you’ll end your journey at the striking red rocks of St. George and one of Utah’s natural leading ladies: Zion National Park.

Arianna Rees is a freelance writer living in Salt Lake City, but her heart is in Cache Valley, where she grew up. Her work has been featured in over a dozen publications, including Deseret News, The Startup, and The Beehive. When she isn't hurriedly typing away at her computer, Arianna can be found hiking and bouldering in the mountains or neck deep in a good book. Follow her on Twitter @AriWRees.

Live Like A Wildcat

• Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City has a thriving film scene that puts you on-set as well as in front of it. Run by the Salt Lake City Film Society, Broadway Centre Cinemas  downtown plays exceptional independent films that make for great post-lunch matinees. After you’ve cozied up to a good flick, get a taste of what it would be like to be in one by swinging by  East High School , where "High School Musical" was born and the "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series" ("HSMTMTS") was filmed. The cast sang “Stick to the Status Quo” in the cafeteria and Troy led the Wildcats to victory in the gym. Sharpay’s locker(s) are even still painted pink to this day. (Note: East High School allows self-guided tours Monday-Friday, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.)

End your day the way Troy might by catching a  Utah Jazz  game and watching Utah’s favorite basketball team fight for a win.

Foodie Pick:  Grab an espresso and a delicious piece of gourmet toast at  Publik Coffee Roaster , which was featured in episode four of "HSMTMTS." 

Alternative Nighttime Activity:  If you’d rather indulge your musical-loving side than your sports side, plan a trip to the  Eccles Theater  downtown, which features several award-winning Broadway plays a year, or hit some pins at the  Bonwood Bowl , featured in episode five of "HSMTMTS."

Overnight:  Salt Lake City

Extend Your Trip:  If you’ve got extra time to explore downtown, visit the Utah State Capital Building and meander through  Temple Square  to learn some of the more fascinating parts of Utah’s political and religious history.

Hit The Slopes & The Stage

• Murray High School
• Hale Center Theatre
• Alta or Snowbird

While most of the "High School Musical" movie was filmed at East High, you can see the stage where Troy and Gabrielle auditioned at  Murray High School  — just make sure to call ahead and set up an appointment to see it beforehand. Travel east from Murray and bop to the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon to spend the day at  Snowbird  or  Alta  ski resort. Though you might not find true love and a duet partner there, you’re sure to find  The Greatest Snow on Earth® . Snowbird boasts 2,500 acres and has the longest ski season in Utah, while Alta offers over 116 runs and enjoyable skiing for beginners. Both resorts are spiderwebbed with a network of trails that can be accessed for hiking, mountain biking, and beautiful wildflower viewing in the summertime.

After you’ve spent the day on the slopes or on the trails, wind down by seeing a musical in-person at the famous  Hale Centre Theatre , one of the most technological theatrical spaces in the world with a stage that will make your head spin.  

Foodie Pick:  Utah got its first Shake Shack in 2019, and its burger is one of the best in the state. 

Overnight:  Provo/Utah County

Extend Your Trip:  If you’re visiting Utah at the end of January, consider purchasing tickets for the  Sundance Film Festival , the largest independent film festival in the U.S. You’ll get the very first look at upcoming films and might also run into a celebrity or two.

Getcha Head In The Game

• St. George Area
• The Entrada Inn And Canyons Complex
• Tuacahn Amphitheatre

Set out from Utah’s urban center and drive south to play among the dramatic red rocks of St. George just like a Wildcat. St. George is a sports and recreation lover’s paradise, with great cycling, golfing, and climbing among other thrilling sports. For the full "High School Musical" experience, visit  The Inn at Entrada  and hit the same greens Troy and Gabriella danced on in the second film, then catch a softball game at the  Canyons Complex  where the Wildcats won the staff baseball game. Near the end of your day, head northwest to  Tuacahn  where you can watch a musical under the desert sky on the weekends. 

Foodie Pick:  Eat at the Cliffside Restaurant for breathtaking sunset views of the city. 

Overnight:  St. George

Break Free and Visit The Wild

• Riverside Walk
• Zion Canyon Drive

Utah’s national parks aren’t featured in the "High School Musical" films, but you’ll catch them in hundreds of other films and TV shows because of their goosebump-inducing landscapes. Zion, which is an hour away from St. George, is no exception. Once in the park, step aboard a shuttle bus where you can relax and enjoy a brief history of the park while you get humbling views of its red rock cathedrals. Take the gentle Riverside Walk (which is wheelchair accessible) for a snippet of Zion’s beautiful scenery. Expert hikers can take the harrowing Angels Landing Trail to see the park from a dizzying bird’s eye view. Just be extremely careful when hiking it. Extend your stay:  Trek deeper into  Zion National Park  to explore the world-famous Narrows and other popular backpacking trails.

Former East Texas athlete arrested in San Antonio for alleged improper relationship with student

S AN ANTONIO, Texas ( KETK ) — A native East Texan has been placed on leave by a San Antonio school after he was arrested for reportedly having an inappropriate relationship with a student.

According to KETK affiliate station, NEWS4SA , Andrew McCown, 27, an algebra teacher and football coach at Roosevelt High School, is accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student.

Authorities said that the North East Independent School District (NEISD) contacted police in late March when the student’s friends learned about the relationship and told school officials.

“This relationship appeared to have started early this year,” Sgt. Washington Moscoso from the San Antonio Police Department said. “In March, the school district immediately put him on administrative leave while this investigation was taking place.”

The police department said McCown did not want to cooperate with the investigation. McCown was taken to the Bexar County Jail on charges of improper relationship with a minor.

The school district released a statement:

“Andrew McCown was hired at Roosevelt High School in the fall of this school year. In March, several students reported that he was having a relationship with a 17-year-old student. NEISD began an investigation and placed McCown on leave. He has not been back on campus since March 8,” NEISD said.

McCown is part of a famous football family in Jacksonville. He was a standout quarterback at Jacksonville High School and graduated from Stephen F. Austin University. Multiple members of his family also played in college football including Texas A&M university, Southern Methodist University, Sam Houston University and two played in the NFL.

Swastika-wearing gunman kills 15, wounds 24 in school shooting in Russia

A swastika-clad gunman opened fire at a school in central Russia on Monday, killing at least 15 people, 11 of them children, before he turned the gun on himself, authorities said.

Another 24 people, 22 children and two adults, were wounded in the attack on School No. 88 in Izhevsk, the capital of Udmurtia, about 600 miles east of Moscow, Russia’s Investigative Committee said.

The gunman was identified as Artem Kazantsev, 34. Udmurtia Gov. Alexander Brechalov said he was registered as a patient at a psychiatric facility.

The Investigative Committee released video purporting to show the gunman’s body in a classroom. He appeared to be wearing nearly all black, including a balaclava covering his face and a T-shirt with a red swastika drawn on it. 

The video also showed the word "hate" written in Russian on all the gun clips.

“I express my deep, sincere condolences to the relatives and friends of those who died as a result of the cynical and ruthless attack on the school in Izhevsk,” Investigative Committee Chairman Alexander Bastrykin said in a statement.

“The monstrous crime claimed the lives of children, including very young ones, and adults. This is a terrible tragedy, a heavy loss for all of us.” 

The gunman was armed with two pistols and an additional large supply of ammunition, the Russian state news agency Tass reported .

Monday’s attack was the latest in several recent school shootings in Russia.

Seven children and two adults were gunned down in May last year in an attack in Kazan.

And in April, a man killed two children and a teacher at a kindergarten in Veshkayma, a town in the central Ulyanovsk region, before he died by suicide.
