Rajshahi Loknath High School is one of the oldest institutions located in Boalia Thana, Rajshahi. The school was established in 1846.
Late Gostho Bihari Majumdar, pioneer of the education movement in Rajshahi city, a devoted educationist and a memorable personality, served as the head teacher of Rajshahi Loknath English High School until 1950. During the early British and Pakistan periods, there was only one college in Rajshahi, named Rajshahi College. As a result, school students of Rajshahi played an active role in the Bengali Language Movement. Since Rajshahi Loknath High School was located just a few yards away from Rajshahi College, its students were greatly influenced by the college students. Thus, the students of Rajshahi Loknath High School had the opportunity to actively participate in the Bengali language movement. Among them was the noted businessman and progressive politician Mosharraf Hossain Akunji.
During the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971, the school was looted multiple times by the Pakistani army and their collaborators including Al-Badr, Al-Shams, Razakars, and members of the Peace Committee. As a result, many valuable records and furniture were destroyed. Numerous former students of Rajshahi Loknath High School have made significant contributions at local and national levels in socio-economic, political, sports, cultural development, the Language Movement, and the Liberation War. Many of its alumni also played important roles in the political arena of Bangladesh.
