Liceo Salvadoreño is a private Catholic educational institution located in San Salvador, El Salvador. The School is under the guidance of the Marist Brothers (Rome) since 1924. [1]
The school has over 2,000 students divided in two shifts, morning and afternoon:
The school has the reputation of being an elite school when it comes to education and sports (their basketball team has won 34 national school titles as well as in track and field and soccer) and its students have received the highest scores in the Learning and Academic Aptitude Test (PAES for its initials in Spanish) since the test's first application in 1997.[2]
Many Ex Liceistas (as their alumni are known) have become important personalities in El Salvador such as: the writer Salvador Salazar Arrue (best known as Salarrué), former president José Napoleón Duarte and many other salvadoran politicians and business men.
