Schulzentrum Friesgasse, Educational campus in Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus, Austria
Schulzentrum Friesgasse is an educational campus in Vienna's 15th district that houses kindergarten, primary school, middle school, and high school under one roof. The various divisions share the same campus location on Friesgasse Street.
The institution was founded in 1860 when Countess Flora Fries brought the Poor School Sisters to Vienna to run an orphanage and education center. Since then the site has evolved into the multi-level school complex it is today.
The school brings together students from many different backgrounds who speak various languages at home. This diversity shapes how people interact in the classrooms and corridors every day.
The campus offers various support services such as homework help and psychological counseling that are available for a monthly fee. Visitors should expect a larger campus that includes multiple building sections.
In 1981 this center became Vienna's first private school to introduce coeducation and changed teaching practices across the city. This decision marked an important shift in how schools operated locally.
