Summary/Abstract: The House of Schools was an institution dependent on the Ministry of Religions and Public Instruction that functioned between 1896-1948. It was established for the construction of school buildings and the centralization of sources of income to ensure the progress of Romanian education. In the adverse conditions of the time, the institution expanded its activity in other directions as well, such as: equipping schools with didactic material, supporting poor students, professional training and raising the prestige of teaching staff, popular education, etc. This study presents the way in which the Bacău school, benefiting from the support of the House of Schools, managed to meet the requirements of the modernization of the Romanian education, contributing, at the same time, to raising the material and cultural level of the common people, especially the villagers.
