Changes After Construction
The school was founded in 1844, and the first school building was a wooden structure with three classrooms.
A new school building was constructed in 1892 in place of the worn wooden structure.
In the 2012–2013 academic year, because of the change in the education system, the institution’s name was adapted to the “primary school–secondary school” structure.
Private Dadyan Armenian Schools moved to the new school building in the 2015–2016 academic year, and thus the old building, which had served for many years, became Private Kadro Anatolian High School.
