St. Gabriel College (Spanish; Castilian: Colegio San Gabriel) is a private Catholic primary and secondary school, located in Quito, Ecuador. The school was founded by the Society of Jesus in 1862, and has grown to include pre-primary as well as six primary and six secondary years.
In 1862 President Gabriel García Moreno brought members of a German Jesuits Order to manage the National Polytechnic School and the Quito Astronomical Observatory. That consisted of naturalist Theodor Wolf, astronomer Juan Bautista Menten, architect José Kolberg, José Epping, chemist Luis Dressel and botanist Luis Sodiro.[1] They also opened and managed a school that in colonial times was called under the name San Luis, in the heart of old Quito. They renamed the school, San Gabriel. It was still subsidized by the state, until 1901 when the liberal government forced its privatization. In 1958 it moved to its new facilities on America Avenue in the north of the city. In 2011, San Gabriel opened a coeducational primary unit, beginning with the first grade.
