Formerly located on Ellice Avenue between Agnes and McGee streets in Winnipeg, a three-storey brick and stone school, measuring 70 feet by 82 feet, was designed by Winnipeg school architect James Bertram Mitchell and built in 1905 by contractors James W. Smith, Charles Wallace Sharp, and Sinclair Balsor Ritchie. Commissioned by the Winnipeg School District, it was constructed at a cost of $45,500, with the school name commemorating cleric John Mark King.
The cornerstone was laid at a ceremony on 28 July 1905 attended by school trustee James Scroggie, Colin H. Campbell, William Patrick, and Thomas Hart. When completed, the building had ten classrooms, an assembly hall, and a full basement. Exterior doors to the basement permitted early-arriving students to enter the building during the cold of winter, rather than wait outside. A portrait of King, painted by noted artist Victor Long, was unveiled at a ceremony in the assembly hall on 11 January 1907 attended by Rev. Charles W. Gordon, 550 students, teachers, parents, and school board officials.
In 1918, due to the increasing student population, a three-storey brick and stone addition, measuring 70 feet by 92 feet, was added to the north side of the school. Also designed by Mitchell, it was built by the Sutherland Construction Company at a cost of about $84,860. The building was replaced by the present structure that stands just north of the former site, along Agnes Street, and the old building was demolished between July and August 1964.
Among the noteworthy former students of John M. King School were Ronald Turner, Lorne Elliott, Frankie Battaglia, Leslie Ham, Orville Knight, Ian McIntosh, Rev. Arnold Wilkinson, Rev. Maurice Wilkinson, Dr. Fred Abbott, Dr. Clifford Abbott, Dr. J. O’Keefe, Glen Pierce, Cecil Lyon, and Dick Flower.
