Fifteenth Gymnasium ((クロアチア語:XV. gimnazija, Petnaesta gimnazija)), previously called, and still better known as MIOC, is a public high school in Zagreb, Croatia. It specializes in mathematics and computer science and it is considered to be the best high school in the capital along with Fifth Gymnasium (''V. gimnazija''). Therefore, in the previous years, it has been increasingly more difficult to be accepted to the school. ==History== The school was founded as Fifteenth Mathematical Gymnasium (''XV. matematička gimnazija'') in 1964. It was the among the first schools in Yugoslavia specializing in mathematics along with Mathematical Gymnasium (''Matematička gimnazija'') in Belgrade. The first principal was Stefanija Bakarić, sister of Vladimir Bakarić, one of the leading politicians in the ruling League of Communists of Yugoslavia and the chairman of the League of Communists of Croatia at the time. The original curriculum was composed with the help from acclaimed university professors Svetozar Kurepa, Branislav Marković and Vladimir Devide. At the beginning, most of the teachers were university professors. In 1965, it became the first school in Croatia to have information science as a school subject. Students first got the chance to work on actual computers in 1980. In 1977, the school, now in a new building, merged with Seventh Gymnasium (''VII. gimnazija'') and Fourteenth Gymnasium (''XIV. gimnazija'', also then known as ''25. maj''). The newly founded school was named Education Center for Mathematics and Computer Science (''Matematičko informatički obrazovni centar''), abbreviated as MIOC. The school is still informally widely known under that name. Denis Kuljiš, a known Croatian political columnist and opinion maker, himself an alumnus of XV. gimnazija, argues that at this point the quality of the school started to go down, since the teachers at other schools involved in the merger were not up to the standards of the school. In 1982, MIOC was renamed to MIOC Vladimir Popović. In 1991, after the fall of Communism, the school changed its name and was once again known as Fifteenth Gymnasium. In 2007, the management of the school planned to hold a celebration of its thirty years of existence which sparked strong protests from alumni who graduated before 1977. In the end, the school held the celebration while mentioning both 1964 and 1977 as important dates in the history of the school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「XV Gymnasium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
