Ok, thanks...
What about: Graduated from the Linguistic gymnasium, or graduated at the Linguistic gymnasium?
I wanted to used the from, but run across a dictionary (Microsofc Word - right click one, Encarta is it?) who says high schools are written with at:
. [intransitive] finish your studies at a high school . American to finish your studies at a high school

Let me offer a slightly more detailed reply.
I wouldn't say that 'at' is wrong, but in my experience most educated people usually say 'from'.
It doesn't really matter what kind of institution is involved.

Thank you, that's been helpful.
I decided to use from in both cases. It actually sounds better to me, it sounds more normal, it flows more naturally, is what I think. But needed some kind of other opinion.
