Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Hamid Khan[1] is a secondary school (high school) in Island Glades, Jelutong, Georgetown, Penang, Malaysia.

History of the school

By the end of 1976, this school had two blocks (two storeys high) which consists of a general office, principal's office, vice principal's office, teacher's room, a library, two science labs, an art room and fourteen classrooms.

Originally, it was an all-girls school which was called Island Glades Girls School. It was then changed to Sekolah Menengah Island Glades as they changed it into a mixed school. Finally, the name Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Hamid Khan was given in honour of Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Khan (1900–1974) who was the Minister of Education from 1962 to 1969 under the premiership of Tunku Abdul Rahman and President of the Dewan Negara from 1971 to 1973.

In 1977, this school had 272 students and twelve teachers. The school was officiated by the then-Deputy Education Minister, Dato' Salleh Jafaruddin on 25 July 1977.
