OUR SCHOOL:IN THE PAST

OUR SCHOOL: IN THE PAST

The new school was a “ginnasio tecnico” and gave also hospitality to a boarding school, as it results from the municipal regulations where we can find that the charge for bed and board went from 6 lire for the “tecnico ginnasiale” course to 15 lire for the “Liceo o Istituto Tecnico” classes; for the primary classes and the cost was 3 lire.
On the 29th May 1894 they were approved the regulations of the institute.
The aim was to take care of the civil, religious, and physical education of the students. The future culture of the students aimed at being well educated, strong and vigorous citizens.

OUR SCHOOL:ORGANIZATION


OUR SCHOOL: ORGANIZATION

The head was the chancellor, helped by a Censor, by some teachers or some soldiers on retire. In this institution it was forbidden to use every dialect because they wanted the students used only a correct Italian language. In the 1930s in our school there was the “Elementary school” ,and after that the Professional School. During the second world war, the building became a military hospital, and it was indicated to the planes by the symbol Red Cross, on the roof to avoid being bombed.
After the war the building “G.Bovio” was again an elementary school, then a professional school and finally a Secondary lower school, as it is still today.
