The two-storey, 15-classroom King Edward School was designed by local architect J. B. Mitchell and built by the Winnipeg School Board at this site along Selkirk Avenue in 1908-1909, at a total cost of $76,000. Opening in April 1909, King Edward School No. 1 quickly outgrew its 500-student capacity and, in 1914, King Edward School No. 2 was constructed on the same site, containing an additional 24 classrooms, by the Sutherland Construction Company.

By 1922, the collective enrollment was 1,470 students, under the guidance of 39 teachers. The first school was demolished in 1973 and the second one in 1977, being replaced with the present one-storey structure nearby. The stone name plaque from the No. 2 school is displayed at the site.
