Gymnasium No 1 in Sandomierz was founded in 1999 in the place of the former primary school. Since 2004, Gymnasium No 1 has been named after Jan Długosz. For all years of its existence, the school has been very active. It was gained a very good reputation and it is one of the foremost gymnasiums in our province. Our educational institution is well equipped, it has a very well qualified teaching staff and, the most important, atmosphere is friendly to every student. Teenagers attending our school have a chance to broaden their knowledge and cultivate their interests thanks to additional artistic, scientific and sports lessons, spending nice time with friends during many cultural events and also helping others in different charity campaigns. Our students can also know the culture of other countries and check in practice their speaking skills in other languages during annual educational projects. Our gymnasium develops and extends its offer aimed at students all the time. The proof of that can be the European School Certificate received in 2004.
