Isidora Sekulić Gymnasium (Шаблон:Lang-sr-Cyrl-Latn) is a secondary school in Novi Sad, Serbia. It is named after Isidora Sekulić, a famous Serbian writer. It was founded in 1990. The gymnasium has two educational courses, science-mathematics course and humanities-linguistics course, represented with 8 classrooms (4 for each course path) a year and 32 classrooms in total.[1] Classes are done exclusively in Serbian.[2]
History
Beginnings (1990—1999)
In June 1990, the Novi Sad municipal assembly made a decision to found the Isidora Sekulic Gymnasium in Novi Sad, appointing Mara Vojinović as its first Principal, while the selection for the schools future professors was done in August. Due to not having their own building yet, classes for the school were conducted in Jovan Jovanović Zmaj Gymnasium, Mihajlo Pupin secondary school of electrical engineering, and in Branko Radičević primary school. In 1992, the building for the Provincial Bureau of Statistics (built in 1936 by architect Slavko Kosirović; original the building for Kraljević Andrej primary school) in Vladike Platona Street was adapted for school use, and since 15 January 1992, the gymnasium was works in that building. January of the same year is the first time Saint Sava Day is celebrated. The 1993/94 school year is marked by extended winter break due to lack of heating from international sanctions on Yugoslavia, as well as the first-generation graduation exam. During these early years the gymnasium became the host for numerous cultural, scientific and educational events, with students reaching the highest places in the Republic's competitions in various subjects. In the wake of NATO's aggression against Yugoslavia and Novi Sad, the 1998/99 school year abruptly stopped during the bombing.[2]
Development (2000—onward)
In November 2003, construction started of a gym building for physical education in the courtyard of the school, which is 11,000 square meters.[2]
Due to the increased number of students attending the school, plans for the school's reconstruction were made in the late 2010s by Studio D’ART headed by Dubravka Đukanović.[3] The plans encompass: a complete renovation of the buildings foundations; new electrical, heating, and pipe systems; refurbishing of the buildings façade, windows, and doors; dismantling the buildings attic and constructing an additional floor of classrooms and event halls; adding emergency ladders for the roof and an elevator for teachers, staff, and disabled individuals; security cameras; 5 new classrooms and 2 computer classrooms; complete furniture and tech refurbishment of the classrooms. Construction efforts started in February 2020 and were planned to be finished by the end of 2021,[4][5][6] enlarging the area from 2,480 square meters to 3,223 square meters.[7][8] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, construction efforts halted for several months. During the buildings reconstruction period, classes were conducted in the Secondary school of mechanics, as well as a combination of online and in-school classes to prevent the spread of the virus. The building was finally reconstructed on 24 January 2022.[1] That year, the school celebrated its 30th anniversary (32nd due to the pandemic restrictions postponing the event).[9]

In addition to the numerous clubs and additional classes organised by the respective professors, the Isidora Sekulic Gymnasium is distinguished by the traditional Thursday manifestation, where various cultural, educational and scientific performances and lectures are held in the gymnasium hall.[2]
