The lack of schools in Santa Cruz de Tenerife at the end of the 19th century was evidence in all its aspects. Therefore, the City Council after verifying that the neighborhood of El Toscal had a large population of school age, commissioned, in 1891, Antonio Pintor and Ocete to develop plans for a school in the corner of the street of La Rosa with San Antonio. It is known that the plans for the school were completed in 1893, although the work did not begin until September 1898, the building was concluded at the end of 1900. The architect's relations with the contractor, Juan Sitja, were difficult to the point that Painter communicated to the mayor his intention to leave the direction of the work before the irregularities that were taking in the construction. The mayor gave Sitja a period of 3 months to redirect the work or otherwise terminate the contract, so the contractor had no choice but to enter into reason by finishing the works without problems. The building underwent two subsequent reforms: in 1911 with an extension for graduate schools and in 1922 in which the access that connects the interior with the garden of Calle la Rosa was opened.
