Energetic Highschool

Our school is a technical and vocational high-school with a tradition in the technical domain since1977. It has a number of about 400 students and 43 staff. It is known in our district for the large number of prizes and contests that our students have won both at local and national level. It is one of the best technical high schools in our district, a district that is characterized by bench mining. The mining industry has decreased recently and as a result many people had to reorientate towards other jobs and have low material possibilities. Most of the students in our school are socioeconomically disadvantaged. Even though our school is situated in the city most students come from rural area and stay in the student hostel.

Energetic Highschool has the following departments: electric and electromechanic, electronic and automation, and mechanics. There are also workshops where our students get practical training. Most of our students go to universities to improve their knowledge in the domains they studied at high-school.

 Our city is situated on the Southern Sub-Carpathians, on the banks of the river Jiu and takes its name from the river Jiu, which runs through it. Targu-Jiu is world wide known for the works of Brancusi, the greatest Romanian sculptor:  The Table of Silence, Stool Alley, The Gate of the Kiss, and The Endless Column.
