Founded in 1887, the institution is one of Turkey's oldest continuously operating secondary schools, with a current enrollment of 514 students across 27 classrooms, supported by 54 teaching staff.

The school operates no commercial revenue stream; it is entirely government-funded through the national education budget, charges no tuition or fees, and is currently in a transition period as it relocates from the historic 1887 building (now preserved as the Sivas Congress and Education Museum) to a new campus on Taşlı Street. Its technology footprint consists of Fatih Project Fiber Internet connectivity and integration with MEB digital platforms (MEBİ, e-Okul, MEBBİS, e-Devlet). Beyond the core curriculum, Sivas Lisesi delivers supplementary Destekleme ve Yetiştirme Kurslar (DYK) support courses during the academic year and summer, Erasmus+ and e-Twinning international collaborative projects, sports activities (with provincial championships in basketball, volleyball, chess, and table tennis), religious education (Kur'an-ı Kerim recitation), and student clubs including the Kızılay (Red Crescent) club. The school's primary customer segments are Grade 9-12 students admitted via the LGS placement system, their parents/guardians who interface through e-Okul, and the 54 teaching staff, all within the Sivas and surrounding districts catchment area in Central Anatolia.
