The Cağaloğlu Anadolu Lisesi ( German Anatolisches Gymnasium Cagaloglu , CAL) is a state high school in Turkey . The CAL was founded in 1850 by the mother of Sultan Abdülmecid I , Bezmiâlem Valide Sultan , under the name Valide Mektebi . This school was the first civilian school in the Ottoman Empire.
