	St. Robert's School opened in February 1934 in Halcyon House, Darjeeling {{Citation needed\|date=April 2014}}. It was the successor to St. Francis Xavier's Middle English, started by Rev. Fr. Charles Grant in 1914, on the grounds of Archbishop's House.<ref>[http://www.darjeelingdiocese.org/secondary_schools.html Diocese of Darjeeling]</ref> The name of the school honors a 16th-century Roman Catholic scholar, [[Saint Robert Bellarmine]]. St. Aloysius Gongaza, patron saint of youth, and the famous spiritual son of St. Robert was known to have been bestowed, by our very own patron saint, with the motto of "Ad Maiora Natus", which translates to "I was born for higher things". As such, these words have been the motto of the school since its establishment. Embodied in this motto is the aim of the school to impart to each of its students the conviction that his life on earth has a purpose far beyond the present world.

	On July 17th, 1934, St. Robert's was transferred to the grounds of Park Hotel. It was recognized as a High School in 1935 by Calcutta University. The school was upgraded to Higher Secondary status with effect from January 1st, 1963, and phasing out of the primary section began to allow for increased enrollment. This program was completed in 1965. In 1974, the school was affiliated to the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education, and the year 1990 was a landmark in the history of St Robert’s School as the administration shifted from Jesuits Order to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Darjeeling. Later in 1993, the school was upgraded to Higher Secondary status by the West Bengal Board and the school started imparting studies in Humanities and Science in the Higher Secondary classes ever since.
