The school started operation on 3 April 1880 as a minor school. After a short while it was named as Graham English High School after the name of District Magistrate of Mymensingh Zilla. Then school authority sought and received financial help from Nawab Bahadur Syed Nawab Ali Chowdhury, then Zamindar of Dhanbari; he aided with operational costs for two years.

In 1996 Bindubashini Govt Boys high Tangail achieved the status of best high school in Bangladesh.
