Don Bosco College, Andisheh High School was a highly ranked Salesian school in Tehran, Iran, operating from 1944 until June 1980. Founded and operated by Salesians, Catholic priests, and followers of Don Bosco, it offered a dual English-Persian, non-religious education from grade 1 through grade 12, approved under official Iranian academic standards. The school accepted expats' children and religious minorities, including Muslims, Christians, Jews, Bahais, and Zoroastrians, and included a boarding school. It started with 32 students, grew to 358 in a decade, and later registered about 1000 students annually across elementary, middle, and high school sections. The final campus was custom-built on approximately 20,000 sqm in mid-northern Tehran on Andisheh Street.
