Paseo Academy is named for Paseo Boulevard, a main street in Kansas City, which is one block west of the school. The school sits on top of a hill with the Kansas City Middle School of the Arts behind it. The old Paseo High School building, designed by Charles A. Smith in 1924 and completed on September 9, 1926, was demolished on November 28, 1990. It was not a performing arts school until the current building was built.
Paseo Academy was formerly Paseo High School, which served the Blue Hills neighborhood.
During the 1960s, Paseo High School experienced rapid "white flight" and had a predominantly African American student body in the 1970s.[citation needed]
