Reykjavik Women's Gymnasium (Icelandic: Kvennaskólinn í Reykjavík) was the first secondary school for women in Iceland. It was begun in 1874 by Þóra Melsteð and Páll Melsteð, as a private school. For the first four years the school was located in the home of the founders near the Parliament Building in the center of Reykjavík. In 1909, it was moved to a new building at Fríkirkjuvegur and the primary offering became domestic science. The curriculum was later expanded to include liberal arts.

Reykjavik Women's Gymnasium (Icelandic: Kvennaskólinn í Reykjavík) was the first secondary school for women in Iceland. It was begun in 1874 by Þóra Melsteð and Páll Melsteð, as a private school. For the first four years the school was located in the home of the founders near the Parliament Building in the center of Reykjavík. In 1909, it was moved to a new building at Fríkirkjuvegur and the primary offering became domestic science. The curriculum was later expanded to include liberal arts. Between 1911 and 1942, the school home economics department was one of its primary offerings, but that course was discontinued when the Húsmæðraskóli was built. In 1946 the school became part of the public education system of Iceland, admitting girls who had passed their primary school examinations. Completion of the school's four-year program conferred a certificate, which was usually called "Kvennaskólapróf". With the passage of the Primary School Act in 1977, the first boy was admitted and the school began offering coeducational curricula. Simultaneously, the school established a two-year division for a social services certificate and in 1979, a third study area, resulting in a university entrance examination certificate being added. Currently the school offers three academic focal areas: languages, natural sciences or social sciences. It is a three-year school offering general education equivalent to the US 11th and 12th grades of high school plus a two-year junior college program, or the last three years of British grammar school plus the first year of university study. The degree awarded upon completion is now called a stúdentspróf which is a pre-university entrance examination equivalent.

Kvennaskólinn í Reykjavík är en isländsk gymnasieskola i Reykjavík, som grundades 1874. Den erbjuder en studentexamen i tre utbildningsprogram; sociologi, juridik och naturvetenskap. Skolan har cirka 650 elever och 55 anställda. Skolan var ursprungligen en flickskola. Upptakten till inrättandet av skolan kan spåras till en adress som publiceras i tidningen Þjóðólfur 1871 och som undertecknades av 25 kvinnor, som efterlyste en skola för flickor. Reykjavik flickskola grundades sedan av paret Þóra Melsteð och Páll Melsted 1874, som hade både varit inblandade i att publicera artikeln. Det är därför en av de äldsta skolorna i landet. Den flyttade till nuvarande lokal 1909. Skolan blev samskola 1977 och gymnasieskola 1979.
