Theodoros Natsinas - Founding School in Thessaloniki

Founding School in Thessaloniki

After 1921 he worked in Thessaloniki. Initially, together with a partner, G. Karantanis, they took over the management of a school established by Stephanos Noukas (The Maraslion School of St. Noukas). At first, the school was known as the Natsinas - Karantanis School, but, subsequently, after the two partners split, the school was renamed the Theodoros Natsinas School.

He is the author of the book "Macedonian Itinerant Merchants in the Countries of Austria and Hungary" (First edition 1939 Thessaloniki - Last edition 1961 from West Macedonia newspaper of Thessaloniki).

The municipality of Thessaloniki honored him by naming a city street after him.

Famous quotes containing the words founding and/or school:

    ... there is no way of measuring the damage to a society when a whole texture of humanity is kept from realizing its own power, when the woman architect who might have reinvented our cities sits barely literate in a semilegal sweatshop on the Texas- Mexican border, when women who should be founding colleges must work their entire lives as domestics ...
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.
    Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
