The School started on the historic and traditional land of Nimo people, who donated the land for the establishment of the school to the catholic church, with the commitment and kind gesture of Nimo as a town, a a catholic convent for primary education was set up in 1948 under the headteacher miss Thereasa Ajuba. In 1953, the school later metamorphosed into a preliminary training college for male teachers which runs for one year and was headed by Mr. E.A Okoli from Arondizuogu. The school was upgraded to run a two-year program as an elementary training college. Mr. I.N Anadi of Oraeri was the principal, and Mr. Gregory Aguligo later took over from him. Never the less, the quest for establishing a secondary school by the community, necessitated chief F.G Onyeiuke and delegates to make a former request to the eastern region government of Nigeria for such. The permission was duly granted by the then Government and that set up in 1963 St Micheals secondary school, Nimo. The school was handed over to the catholic church to own and develop the school. classes, however, started on the 18th Feb 1963, with a student population of 48. Rv. Fr Richard Quinn CSSP was the pioneer principal of the school, until Mr. A. A. Aniekie from Abagana took over from him in 1963. The pioneer students and principals did marvelously well to raise the required infrastructures needed in the school, though not without odds and hurdles. Having been making tremendous achievements both in morals, discipline, academics, e.t.c, the school was certified to take its maiden west African School Certificate Examination (WASCE) in 1967 with the later outbreak of civil war which got almost everything in the school destroyed. the examination was later taken in 1970, after the end of the Nigeria/ Biafra civil war. the student remnant at the reopening after the war was about 357 students. The result of the examination was later canceled because it was mered by the infamous "EXPO 70". Hence the retaken of the examination in 1971, were the school mad wonderful result in the whole eastern state it is indeed worthy to note that the government takes over the school from the mission after the civil war saw a serious dark age in the school system in Nigeria. Be that as it may, the school was growing under the various administration of principals with the foundation laid by the church. It was during the regime of Col. Robert Akonobi as the military governor Anambra state, that the school was named St. Michaels model comprehensive secondary school. The various principals of this school worked tirelessly to upgrade and promote the school, which they all succeeded in their various capacities. We salute them all.
