The national circulation stamp, created by student Sofia Rego from the Visual Arts course, reproduces a photograph of the school's signage, designed in 1937 by architect Cottinelli Telmo. The work symbolizes the union between the school's secular tradition and the postal service of CTT.
During the solemn session, the Councillor for Education of the Lamego Municipal Chamber, Catarina Ribeiro, emphasized that the "Latino Coelho School is the living memory of Lamego". "It is the beating heart of Lamego's identity, culture, and knowledge. For almost a century and a half, this institution has been much more than a place of learning: it has been an incubator of dreams, the cradle of generations of exemplary citizens, and a beacon of enlightenment for our region. Brilliant minds, excellent professionals, and above all, people who shaped the character of our community have passed through these halls", she stated.
Catarina Ribeiro added that leaders have "the duty to look to the future with ambition and responsibility" and considered that the relationship between the Latino Coelho School and the Municipality of Lamego "has never been so close and so essential". "Our daily collaboration is reflected in the continuous improvement of material conditions, in support for pedagogical projects, and in the certainty that the municipality will always stand shoulder to shoulder with the school community", she concluded.
