Postcard “Women’s Gymnasium”
#2
In the first year of the gymnasium’s existence, classes were held in the building of the city government. Then the initiative group decided to build a proper building for the gymnasium.

The building of the women’s gymnasium, one of the oldest in Tetyushi, was designed in 1906 under the supervision of and designed by Stepan Bechko-Druzin, the architect of the Kazan educational district.

City funds, donations, and tuition fees supported the gymnasium. Low-income families paid 10 rubles each, the rest — 25. It was a low sum: as an example, in Kazan women’s gymnasiums education cost 75 rubles.

Local merchants, the Krupin brothers, sponsored the construction. On November 3, 1905, Peter, Lev, and Nikolai Krupin, “wishing to perpetuate the memory of their father, Fyodor Lvovich, and their brother, Pavel Fyodorovich, stated their willingness to construct a stone building for the gymnasium, which had not existed in the entire Tetyushsky district until now.” The City Duma decided to accept the brothers' statement and allocate a plot of land at the corner of Bolsheroitskaya and Bolshearkhangelskaya streets.
 
Soon the construction of the stone building of the progymnasium with an apartment for the headmistress and all the student facilities was completed.

Elena Unzhenina, the wife of a local merchant Konstantin Unzhenin, was appointed head of the women’s gymnasium. The school was attended by children of different classes, and there were much more peasant children than the descendants of nobles, officials, merchants, and clergy. In 1918, the gymnasium was renamed as the Tetyushi Labor School of the Second Stage.

In 1929, it began to be called the School for Peasant Youth (SHKM). In 1933, by the Soviet government decree, the school became a secondary school with a 10-year period of study. Since 2010, the school bears the name of Pavel Khanzhin — Hero of the Soviet Union, intelligence platoon commander of the 38th Guards Rifle Regiment during the Great Patriotic War.

Two Heroes of the Soviet Union graduated from the school: Nikolai Ivanov in 1921 and Pavel Khanzhin in 1941, as well as Petr Malkin, a full Cavalier of the Order of Glory.

Famous athletes graduated from the school in Tetyushi as well. For example, two-time Olympic champion in weightlifting in 1956 and 1960 Arkady Vorobyov, European champion in volleyball Alexandra Povarova, European champion in rhythmic gymnastics Nina Kostina, multiple World and European champion in clay target shooting, silver medalist of the Sydney Olympic Games Svetlana Demina (Yakimova).
