The Shirakatsy Lyceum International Educational Complex was founded in 1990. In 1998 Middle School was established and the first grade of the Primary School was formed under its first teacher and director Tatevik Vatyan. In 2010 the Lyceum became the first in the region to become a full member of the Round Square International Schools World Association. In 2011, by government decision, the Primary, Middle, and High Schools were reorganized into a complete educational complex and began implementing the International Baccalaureate program; the Primary School was accredited to implement the IB Primary Years Program in 2013 and the High School Diploma Program in 2014. Since July 2022, Shirakatsy Lyceum has been a member of the Council of International Schools (CIS).
The Lyceum community hosts events including International Women's Day and celebrates student achievements such as winners in the “100 Ideas for Armenia” competition. Lyceum students and staff participate in Round Square conferences, and Science Week features exhibitions and activities that showcase student work. Jubilee year events include family-led activities, such as climbing Mount Masis and raising the Lyceum's flag on Ararat.
