	Raiganj Coronation High School (H.S.) was established on 17 January 1911. A group of enlightened persons headed by Sri Kulada Kanta Ghosh, the founder Secretary of the School played the pivotal role in the establishment of the school. The school was named such because it was the year of the coronation of [[King George V]]. After independence, efforts had been made to do away with the word "coronation" but it could not be actualized as yet. This is because of the fact that the school, since its foundation has chronologically reached such a coveted height that any alteration of the name is not likely to be approved by the people of Raiganj.

== History ==
Raiganj Coronation High School (H.S.) was established on 17 January 1911. A group of enlightened persons headed by Sri Kulada Kanta Ghosh, the founder Secretary of the School played the pivotal role in the establishment of the school. The school was named such because it was the year of the coronation of [[King George V]]. After independence, efforts had been made to do away with the word "coronation" but it could not be actualized as yet. This is because of the fact that the school, since its foundation has chronologically reached such a coveted height that any alteration of the name is not likely to be approved by the people of Raiganj.

== Before 1911 ==
Prior to 17 January 1911, the school was known as Raiganj Middle English School. In 1908 Sri Kulada Kanta Ghosh of Raiganj attended the "Congress Conference" held at Bombay. Inspired by nationalistic educational philosophy, Sri Ghosh on returning from the conference devoted himself along with like-minded persons towards setting up a school to cater the need of spreading education among the children of Raiganj. As a result, Raiganj Middle East School which was established in 1905, came to known as Raiganj Coronation High English School w.e.f. 17 January 1911. The entire land required for the school building and the playground was donated by Late Maharaja Girija Nath Rai Bahadur of Dinajpur.

== The Freedom Movement and the School ==
Sri Kulada Kanta Ghosh, the founder Secretary of the school was a staunch supporter of the freedom movement. Among the teaching staff Damodar Pramanik, H.M. and Arun Chandra Ghosh, A.T were indirectly but closely associated with the movement. A group of students namely Sukumar Guha, Rabindranath Bhowmik, Anil Nag, Sucharu Guha, Kamal Bhowmik, Abinash Dutta and other courted arrest for actively participating in the August movement, in 1942.
