Built in 1923, our school has a history whose beginnings are found in the era of cultural flourishing of Romania: the interwar period. Since 1992, it is UNESCO Associated School, the only one in our county and the first school in the country accepted to the International Federation of UNESCO Schools. It has annually held at least one national action, a good opportunity for our students to establish links with young people in the country. The performance achieved in this position was established by being awarded the UNESCO Gold Medal on the occasion of the Peace Olympic Games (Togo), as well as the International Flags of Tolerance, Romanian Excellence Diploma, awarded by the Romanian National Commission for UNESCO, for "ten years of intense activity as a representative school in the system of UNESCO associated schools in Romania ", a prize which rewards effort, talent and dedication of the school staff. Each year our school brings together around 1000 students.

Over the years, Voievodul Mircea High School has been involved in various European and international projects, including three former Comenius multilateral school partnerships (for two of them as the main coordinator), several Erasmus+ projects (also as coordinator for three of them).
