The Markham Village High School was completed in 1860 to serve the needs of the surrounding community. Initial enrolment was 45 male students.

In 1868 female students were admitted.

The school saw several additions and improvements over the next 50 years, including additional classrooms and labs, and notably the addition of running water in 1920.

By the late 1940s the school was proving too small for the increased area population. A new High School was built and this school converted to several other uses beginning in 1954. At various times the school served as a Masonic Hall, daycare and meeting space.
