From 1603 the town of Elgin had 2 schools – the Grammar school, sited on the corner of what is now Commerce Street, and The Sang School or English School situated on the lands of Maisondieu.  In 1791 the Town Council of Elgin planned to bring the 2 schools together and form a new Academy which was built on the corner of Francis Place and Academy Street and was officially opened in 1801.  Due to the increasing roll, a new school was built in Moray Street and opened for use in 1886.  The roll of pupils outgrew this building, so work started on the present buildings at Morriston in 1964.  These were completed and opened in 1969.
