Dragoș Vodă high school in Sighetu Marmației

The building, designed by architect Sándor Baumgarten in 1913, stands at 14 Mihai Viteazul Street with distinctive architectural elements typical of early 20th century schools.

Founded in 1919 after Transylvania's union with Romania, the institution began with 137 male students and fourteen teachers, including two religion instructors.

The school shifted between Romanian and Hungarian instruction languages during political changes, reflecting the region's multicultural educational heritage through different administrations.

The institution maintains both academic excellence and modern facilities, offering computer science courses and foreign language programs to prepare students for contemporary challenges.

During the 1938 National Renaissance Front period, the school introduced mandatory morning gymnastics and sports activities as part of its educational program.
