This paper assays the creation of the secondary school, Atheneu, located in Vitória, in the state of Espírito Santo, and its operation from 1873 to 1892. It was perceived, from the analysis of official documents, such as government reports and correspondence, that the creation of this institution was related to the political proposal which aimed to consolidate the male education in the secondary level in the country as a preparatory step to join the Universities of the Empire. This conception was strongly influenced by the French teaching model which contributed to the deliberation of public policies in Brazil in the final decades of the nineteenth century. The investigation of periodicals of the time showed the mobilization and expectations of the Capixaba society around the building of the Atheneu Provincial. It was possible to analyze the socio-economic profile of the student body, the faculty and the ones in charge of management due to enrollment records and the press once the establishment was already in operation. The trajectories of the students who were part of Atheneu's history throughout their 19 years of operation revealed the institution's role in the shaping of members of the Capixaba political elite who would contribute to the implementation of the new republican regime.
