1917

Flushing High School was established by the Village of Flushing in 1875 prior to its consolidation with New York City and is the oldest public high school in the city.[2] For decades, the school enjoyed a good reputation with local real estate sales brochures touting proximity to "famed Flushing High School" as late as the 1960s.[3] By the 1980s, the student body ceased to be drawn from the local Jewish and Asian population. As of the 2010s, the school remained generally low-performing. In an attempt to improve conditions, the entire staff had to reapply for their positions in 2017.[4] Since then, graduation rates have increased from 63% in 2017[5] to 83% in 2021.[6]

Flushing High School was originally located on the northeast corner of Union Street and Sanford Avenue.[7] It is currently located on Northern Boulevard, and housed in a distinctive Collegiate Gothic style building featuring turrets and gargoyles. It was built from 1912 to 1915, with another wing added in 1954. The WPA's Federal Art Project funded James Penney [8] to paint four murals which were installed in 1938.[9]

The building was designated as a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1991.[2][10] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[11]
