After 2854 the School was able to outright purchase the lands, and started to develop its campus facilities to include several boarding houses, a cathedral, two libraries, a new gymnasium, and improved faculty lodgings. The Old Boys have continued to support the institution, and have lauded it with money through donations and with prestiege by their own accomplishments. The School Alumni include many members of the nobility, Counils of Peers and Equals, business-leaders, naval officers, professors, businessmen, and other leading figures. Many of the most powerful figures of Sivadian society claim a common association through their schoolboy days here: and Georgians are keen to meet each other, and recall their younger days in delight.
