History


It was founded on 27 September 1943 as the Kharkiv Suvorov Military School. It was located on the Donets near Kharkiv's Lenin Square. On 1 July 1947, the school was relocated from Kharkiv to Kyiv, where it was renamed the Kyiv Suvorov Officers School. On 20 September 1943, Major General Pyotr Eremin took over the command of the school. According to the Department of Military Educational Institutions of the Red Army, from 18 to 20 November 1943, 415 pupils from the Kharkiv and Voroshilovgrad regions of the Ukrainian SSR, as well as from Voronezh, Kursk, Tula and the Moscow Oblast of the RSFSR. The school was located in the building of the former 2nd Kyiv Red Banner College of self-propelled artillery named after Mikhail Frunze. On 1 August 1955, it was renamed to the Suvorov Military School. In 1992, by the decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on 19 August 1992, the Ivan Bohun Military High School was established on the basis of the Kyiv Suvorov Military School.
Over the years, 44 graduations of cadets have been conducted. In 1953, cadets of the school marched in the October Revolution Parade on Moscow's Red Square.
