The school had been planned for almost a decade before beginning construction, with students living in this area of the city having to go to schools several kilometer south such as John G. Diefenbaker High School and Crescent Heights High School, which could have up to a 50 minute travel time.[1]
The Calgary Board of Education announced in December 2020 that construction will begin in early. The school finished construction around July 2023 opened for students on August 31, 2023.
Originally given the placeholder name of North Calgary High School, the official name was announced by the Calgary Board of Education Trustees on April 7, 2023, after consultations with a local First Nations elder, citing Siksika history. [2][3][4] The grand opening ceremony of the school was held on April 26, 2024.
