Eastern Latvia Secondary School of Technologies (Acronym: ATV) is a secondary general-education institution, which is located in the city called Rezekne in the Eastern part of Latvia. The school was established in 2015. Its founder is Rezekne Academy of Technologies, which is one of the higher education institutions of Latvia.
Both school and its program have been accredited for 6 years – till 2021.
Eastern Latvia Secondary School of Technologies is unique, because, firstly, it is one of only two secondary schools of Latvia, which has been established by higher education institution. Secondly, it has a small number of students, who are selected according to the set of criteria, which in turn gives an opportunity for individual approach. And thirdly, the school implements STEM (science, technologies, engineering and mathematics) program and prepares students for studies in higher education institutions in the field of engineering and other sciences.
ATV students study general-education subjects, but the emphasis is put on STEM subjects, such as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Since ATV founder is Academy, then our students regularly do practical work in the laboratories of Academy’s Engineering faculty, which is one of the most modern and best-equipped engineering faculties in Latvia. Besides STEM subjects students learn languages ( Native language – Latvian, English – as the first foreign language, Russian or German – as the second foreign language), Technical graphics, Geography, Information Technologies, Economics, History, Visual arts, Programming, Culture science and Sports. The students of form 10 and 11 elaborate scientific research works, which are presented and defended locally, regionally and at national level. These studies are mostly done in STEM subjects and are supervised by subject teachers.
In order to preserve our national identity the school has also formed its own folk dance group and an ensemble.
The goal of Eastern Latvia Secondary School of Technologies is to provide a qualitative and up-to date education, to prepare students for studies in higher education establishment and to bring up socially responsible, tolerant and patriotic citizens.
