Colégio Pedro II, State school in São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Colégio Pedro II is a state school in São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro. The main building displays classical facades with columns and arches, while the large courtyards are surrounded by two-story pavilions.

Founded in 1837, the school was the first state-run secondary education institution in Brazil. The school was named in honor of the young emperor Pedro II and served as a model for other public schools across the country.

The institution maintains a comprehensive library system with extensive collections of Brazilian literature, scientific papers, and historical documents available for student research.

The campus is located near several bus lines and a train station that connects São Cristóvão to other neighborhoods. The grounds are open on weekdays during school hours, though access for visitors may be restricted.

The school operates its own publishing department that produces educational materials and academic resources. These publications are distributed to educational institutions across Brazil and serve as a reference for curricula.
