In 1939–44, elementary school operated in Ignalina. In 1944, it became a progymnasium. 1 September 1946, a Lithuanian-language high school was opened.

In 1993, the school was named after Česlovas Kudaba. On 15 July 2002, after the establishment of the Ignalina district gymnasium, the school was reorganized into a primary school.
