The school was established in 1980 with the help of former Deputy Commissioner Md. Azizul Haque Vuiyan, local residents, government assistance, and non-governmental people. The school was initially named Rashedajjoha Girls College but later called Sabuj Kanan High School. After some time at Mujib Road, the school gained its own shelter and started classes with eight tin-shed classrooms.

In 2004, with the help of former Deputy Commissioner Aminul Bar Chowdhury and the other members of the managing committee, the second floor was built.
