History
The school was established at São João del Rei, Minas Gerais, on May 1, 1909, by the Order of Friars Minor. It solidified itself as a benchmark of education, welcoming students from all over the country.
In late 1940, the leaders moved the school to Belo Horizonte, the state capital, to better prepare students for entry into the Federal University of Minas Gerais, which was known as the University of Minas Gerais at the time. At the same time, the Commissioner of Santa Cruz Province left the Holy Martyrs Gorcumienses province, of the Netherlands, when the former became independent.
With the direction of Brother Bertrando, Pedro Schretlen and help of other members, the school was moved to 880 Pernambuco street by the district officials on February 17, 1950 when an inaugural mass was celebrated in a makeshift chapel. The school also began to support the autonomy of the Franciscan province just created. That same year, seven classes of science (current school) were created, and two years later came the first gymnasium classes (equivalent to the second half of today's key).
In 1972, the unit of São João del Rei (High School San Antonio), finally ended its activities, leaving the building for the municipality. In the old building, the Municipal Foundation of Sao Joao del Rei was started, which was one of the entities forming the Federal University of São João del-Rei. The Franciscans kept the school true to the principles of the order. After the death of Brother Bertrando, the school has been on to Frei Felix, from 1959 to 1962; Frei Humbertino Backes, Eduardo Copray and Giraldi, from 1962 to 1967; Frei Aristides Kasbergen; from 1967 to 1984; Fr Dario Campos, from 1984 to 1991; Hilário Meekes, from 1991 to 2000.
In 2001, the Freis (Friars) took charge Henry Carvalho Neto, Gilberto Teixeira, José Roberto Garcia and Pedro Carlos Ferreira. In 2002 and 2003, respectively, Zé Roberto and Pedro discontinued their leaderships of the school, and Frei Flávio Silva Vieira continued the work in the area of pastoral care. Frei Jonas Nogueira da Costa took over the ministry in late 2006. Frei Jacir de Freitas Faria has been Director General and Pedagogical since late 2006. Since late 2007, Frei Alexsandro Rufino da Silva has been the Director of Administration and Finance.
