History
The Novodworski Foundation was created by the Alumni of the Nowodworski High School living in the United States.
Throughout the school's history it was supported and helped by many of its alumni. Today the tradition continues with such groups as The Nowodworski Foundation that began student exchanges between various American high schools and the Nowodworski High School. The foundation is also working to renovate and expand the over 400 year old school's crumbling facilities and integrate it with the city's cultural circle.

“Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon than the Word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
