The Halifax Grammar School opened as a school for boys in 1958. Its founders created a school that encouraged average to above-average students to aim for excellence and, by doing so, to realize their potential. The school was a success from the start and soon outgrew its original Tower Road home. In January 1962, a newly-constructed building was opened on Atlantic Street, on a 2.5-acre site near Saint Mary's University in the south end of Halifax. Not long after, in 1964, the school acknowledged the broad demand for the type of education it offered and began to admit girls. As the school population grew, the Atlantic Street building grew with it. Library facilities and a gymnasium were added in 1973. Science labs, a music room, and a space for the first primary class were built in 1980. Finally, a major renovation was undertaken in 1987, which significantly reshaped both the façade and the interior and added more classrooms and an auditorium.
