History

On October 12, 1956, they began the activities in Venezuela the Italian School "Angelo De Marta", with the vision of keeping alive the Italian language for the Italian future generations grown in Venezuelan territory.

Subsequently, on November 25, 1959, a philanthropic group of Italian entrepreneurs of Venezuela began the construction of campus facilities, supported by Mr. Angelo De Marta, consul of Italy at the time, who donated the land where now are the headquarters of the institution.[3] Initially the school was only in Italian language, but in the late 1960s started to be bilingual. Later was created the Unidad Educativa Colegio Italovenezolano Angelo De Marta, that actually has courses of Italian language even for relatives of students.[4]

The first graduation of the College Italo-Venezolano "Angelo De Marta" was held on September 25, 1971, with the graduation of 29 bachelors of Science and 10 in Humanities. Recently there were the celebrations of the 59th years of existence of the Colegio De Marta[5]

gollark: I'm not getting any brain interface computer stuff until it has an extremely comprehensive hardware/software test suite. I do not trust computers.
gollark: I could apply, but I don't really have some sort of immediate requirement for a specific React-based app as much as a vague desire to test how well this does at stuff.
gollark: Interesting and, er, somewhat worrying. I would be more interested if I could actually test this myself, and on things more complex than todo lists for which there is not tons of example code on the web anyway.
gollark: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53884401The education system really is wonderful!
gollark: Maybe.
