St. Gabriel College, Quito, Ecuador, (Colegio San Gabriel) was founded by the Jesuits in 1862, and has grown to include pre-primary as well as six primary and six secondary years.
In 1862 President Gabriel Garcia Moreno brought the Jesuits to Ecuador and restored to them the National School in Quito, which they had run in colonial times under the name San Luis, in the heart of old Quito. They renamed the school San Gabriel.[citation needed] It was still subsidized by the state, until 1901 when the liberal government forced its privatization.[citation needed] In 1958 it moved to its new facilities on America Avenue in the north of the city.[citation needed] In 2011, San Gabriel opened a coeducational primary unit, beginning with the first grade.[citation needed]
