Liceo scientifico Filippo Masci is an Italian state secondary school in Chieti, Abruzzo, offering a standard liceo scientifico curriculum to students typically aged from 14 to 19 years old.

The main seat of the school, which housed the local Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Agriculture and Artisanship from 1863 and afterwards another high school (Istituto Luigi di Savoia),[1] is under restoration due to damage from the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake, so all the classrooms have been temporary relocated in other buildings, such as a wing of Chieti's seminary, which had been rented to release overcrowding.[2]

History

Liceo scientifico Filippo Masci was among the first licei scientifici to be opened in Italy after the Gentile reform of 1923 and was named in honor of Neo-Kantian philosopher and politician Filippo Masci, who had died in 1922. At that time students were predominantly male and native of the province of Chieti, but some of them were born in other parts of Abruzzo, Molise, Marche, Argentine or United States.

From 1943 to 1944, during the World War II, the lessons were suspended and the school was opened to accommodate the refugees coming from the province of Chieti.

For many years there were only 5 classes, but from the 1970s the students started to increase in number, so, when the growth finished, there were about 35-40 classes.[3]

In 2014 it was elected the "best secondary school in Abruzzo" by Eduscopio, a project of the Giovanni Agnelli Foundation.[4]
