The Adalbert-Stifter-Gymnasium (ASG) is one of four high schools in Passau . It is named after the Austrian writer, painter and educator Adalbert Stifter .

history

Today's high school emerged from the district trade school founded in 1833, which became the district secondary school in 1877 and the upper secondary school in 1907. In 1964 the upper secondary school was expanded to include a new language branch and in the following year it was elevated to a mathematical, scientific and modern language grammar school. The school has been at its current location on Innstrasse since 1964. The ASG was one of 20 high schools in Bavaria participating in the MODUS21 pilot project, which ran until 2007 , as part of which a project was carried out to develop training for personal and social skills under the scientific guidance of a qualified pedagogue. In 2006 and 2007, the building was expanded considerably as part of the G8 , including a school kitchen. The school participates in school without racism - school with courage .

All day school

With an extension built in 2006/2007, which is directly connected to the gym, the ASG was expanded into an all-day school with afternoon care until 4:30 p.m. The foundation of the extension, which was erected in 14 months, rests on 30 steel girders with a depth of up to 12 meters because of the river sand underground. The costs for the construction amounted to 1.89 million euros, of which almost 1.4 million were taken over by the investment program Future Education and Care . The city of Passau paid for the rest. As part of the renovation work, the ASG was equipped with lifts for the disabled. On October 19, 2007, the then Lord Mayor Albert Zankl and the then headmaster Gerhard Wagner inaugurated the extension.

The 494 m² floor space is divided into a library, a work room, a leisure room as well as a multi-purpose room and a dining room. The multi-purpose room has a stage for theatrical performances.

At the Adalbert-Stifter-Gymnasium, open teaching is practiced, a teaching principle that enables self-determined learning. In addition to the scientific-technological branch, the linguistic with a third foreign language can also be chosen from the 8th grade. The ASG is also a seminar school for trainee students in German, English, French, history, mathematics, computer science, biology, chemistry and art education.
