Queen Elizabeth High School was established in September 1942, on its current location at the corner of Bell Road and Robie Street. Queen Elizabeth High School has been in the Halifax community for 65 years. QEH offers many services including a 1280 seat performance auditorium opened in 1951. In February 1969 The Board of School Commissioners opened an addition that made Queen Elizabeth High more than double its area. Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Queen Elizabeth High School is scheduled to merge with nearby St. Patrick's High School to form Citadel High School. The new school will be located across the street from the existing school. Ground breaking for Citadel High School took place in April, 2006. QEH is unfortunatly scheduled to close in June 2007 after a long 65 year old history. It will be missed by many students and its over 50,000 graduates.
