During the complex development of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the Argentine secondary school system went through several stages; they were demarcated by significant transformations of the system’s format as well as by variations in its institutional and pedagogical conformation. In this article, we intend to carry out a historical and institutional analyses of the process of institutionalization of the "Escuela Industrial Domingo Faustino Sarmiento" as a pre-university institution dependent on the National University of San Juan (UNSJ). The origin of the school analyzed lies on the "Colegio Preparatorio de San Juan", the first secondary school created in the province of Cuyo. The analytical focus will be specifically placed on its conformation process and its institutional evolution mediated by the national educational context. In this respect, we will account for the tensions experienced after the implementation of certain national policies, highlighting the complex and controversial role of Domingo Faustino Sarmiento both as a political and educational agent and as a key contributor to the identity formation of the educational institutions that preceded the formerly mentioned school. Furthermore, we will describe its incorporation into the organization of the UNSJ; an event which laid the foundations for the conformation of its institutional structure and current curricular design.

Keywords : Highschool education; National University of San Juan; Educational politics; pre-University Institute; Domingo Faustino Sarmiento.
