George Barițiu National College
__NOTOC__ George Barițiu National College () is a high school located at 10 Emil Isac Street, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, named after George Bariț. Nearly a year after the union of Transylvania with Romania, the school opened in October 1919 by order of the Directing Council, making it the first Romanian high school in Cluj. Alexandru Ciura was the inaugural director. The school periodical was published beginning in 1923. In 1940, following the Second Vienna Award, which returned Northern Transylvania, including Cluj, to Hungary, two Romanian sections functioned in the same building, one for boys and another for girls, the latter until 1942; neither used the Barițiu name. In 1941, these were merged into a co-educational state school. In 1944, after the Hungarian occupation ended, the old name was restored and the school initially operated with eight classes of boys. It was then co-educational from 1945 to 1947.

Educational Institutions Established In 1919

Schools In Cluj-Napoca
A school is the educational institution (and, in the case of in-person learning, the building) designed to provide learning environments for the teaching of students, usually under the direction of teachers. Most countries have systems of formal education, which is sometimes compulsory. In these systems, students progress through a series of schools that can be built and operated by both government and private organization. The names for these schools vary by country (discussed in the '' Regional terms'' section below) but generally include primary school for young children and secondary school for teenagers who have completed primary education.
