A short history

Building work on the present school in Comăna de Jos began in 1938. After the war, the front of the building went up, with its four classrooms, and was finished in 1956. In the years that followed, the school was extended and a first floor was added, with a workshop and a laboratory on the ground floor. The works were initiated by the distinguished teacher Nicolae Ramba.

The school in Crihalma was built in 1896 by the villagers, on the initiative of the priest Gheorghe Bucur, when the teacher was Ioan Buzete of Felmer. Since 2006 it has been part of Comăna de Jos Secondary School.

In Ticușu Nou, a school is recorded from 1852. Until 1860 it ran in a peasant house on Panchea Street, and in 1910 the villagers built the new school building through their own efforts.

The kindergarten in Comăna de Sus occupies a historic building dating from 1929, with a landscaped yard and an alley lined with fir trees.
