To celebrate this special occasion, King Rama V wanted to establish a school in honor of his grandfather, King Rama II. He donated 2,000,000 baht and persuaded the royal members to donate to build the school at Wat Arun Ratchawararam, the royal temple of King Rama II.King Rama V named the school “Taweethapisek”. In Thai, Tawee means twice or double and pisek means coronation. When the school started, there were 162 students and 6 teachers. The first school building was 4 stories high and the first director was Khun Uparakansilapaset.In 1951, the school started to move some students to study at a new location at Wat Nakklang[clarification needed] because the school building at Wat Arun was too small for the increasing number of students. In 1960, the school building at Wat Nakklang was finished, and all the students in grades 7\u201312 were moved that year.[1]Buildings[edit]Bidyalabh Pruethidhada Building[edit]The oldest building; 14 classroomsSurachai Ronnarong Building[edit]15 classrooms, 3 computer rooms, and a library named “Arthon Sangkhawattana”Prabparapak Building[edit]Thep Sittinayok Building[edit]Science operation room, Pet-Dok-Kaw room (Audiovisual Education), and Green room (Eco energy prototype classroom)General Suchinda Kraprayoon Hall Building[edit]100th Taweethapisek anniversary by General Suchinda Kraprayoon Building[edit][clarification needed]Sacred places[edit]The King Rama V Monument was brought to school on 19 June 1999 from the fine arts department.[clarification needed]Phra Buddha Taweethapisek Mahamongkol StatueFather Surachai Ronarong Statue,[2] honoring a famous soldier who protected Bangkok from attack by Burma during the reign of King Rama I.School Symbol[edit]On the coronation day of King Rama V, Taweethapisek coins were given to the royal members and bureaucrats who came to join the Taweethapisek ceremony. Thus, the school uses the coin as the school symbol. In the school symbol, there are coats of arms of King Rama II, King Rama V, and other insignias that represent them.[3]Directors[edit]Years in officeName1898\u20131907Khun Upakarnsilapaset1907\u20131911Mr. Prom1911Phra Banjedwichachan1911\u20131916Khun Darunwitworaset1916\u20131949Khun Wisitdarunkan1949\u20131965Mr. Worasit Inthapat1965\u20131974Mr. Rewat Cheunsamran1974\u20131979Mr. Samreong Nilpradit1979\u20131984Mr. Jongkol Methakal1984\u20131988Mr. Suchat Chaimano1988\u20131989Mr. Samran Rattanawith1989\u20131995Mr. Kanok Chanprajorn1995\u20131998Mr. Prasan Utamangkhabowon1998\u20132001Mr. Suthon Julamok2001\u20132004Mr. Suwat Onjaikla2004\u20132008Mrs. Sukanya Phuphanthaphak2008\u20132010Mrs. Sumonmat Wuttisangatham2010\u20132013Mr. Somkiat Charoenchim2014Mr. Chaianant Kaendee2015\u20132016Mr. Chaiyasit Donthuam2017\u20132019Mr. Narong Khongsomprach2019\u2013CurrentMr. Prachuap Intharachote[4]Following are some notable alumni:[5]Professor Sanya Dharmasakti, 12th Prime Minister of ThailandGeneral Suchinda Kraprayoon, 19th Prime Minister of ThailandAir Chief Marshal Chalermkiat Wattanangkun, 5th Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Thai Air ForceAdmiral Kawee Singha, 26th Commander-in-Chief, Royal Thai NavyPolice General Seripisut Temiyavet, 5th Commissioner-General, Royal Thai PoliceGeneral Preecha Rojanasen, National Assembly of Thailand memberNaowarat Pongpaiboon, S.E.A.
