The School District of Grand Island was formally organized over 100 years ago in 1867 with the high school portion of the district coming into being in the 1870s. The first high school included a K-12 building and was built between 1st Street, Division Street, Wheeler Street, and Walnut Street on land donated by the Union Pacific Railroad. The school was named Dodge School in honor of Major General Grenville Mellen Dodge, chief Engineer of the Union Pacific Railroad.
