The Town of Tekoa area was settled by the Coeur d'Alene people until in 1886 David A. Huffman and George T. Huffman arrived. The townsite was platted in 1888 and was named after the Biblical town.

Tekoa was incorporated in 1889 with just under 300 people at the base of Tekoa Mountain (elevation 2,490 feet), on the extreme eastern end of the Palouse, and to the west of the mighty Benewah Range of Idaho. By 1910 the population had grown to 1,694. Over the next 60 years, Tekoa began a population decline. Mechanized farming reduced the need for workers, and the automobile age came into being, as well as the abandonment of the railway. By 1990 the town had fewer than 750 residents. During the 1990s the town increased in popularity and the population rose to 826 at the 2000 census.
