The school’s patron, Waclaw Blizinski, was the parson in Liskow from 1900 to 1939. He was not only a priest but also a social worker, educator and an MP. He was the person who made Liskow the model village of that time. Blizinski stressed the importance of education and built in Liskow many schools. He encouraged people to learn and supported them as much as he could. Our school is located in the building of the previous agronomic school founded in 1913 by Blizinski. We are very proud of our patron.
Our Patron: ks. W. Blizinski
There are about 280 students (aged 13- 15) at our school. We learn 2 foreign languages: English and German, and many other important subjects. This Comenius project is the first European partnership of our school.
