The Bodensee-Gymnasium Lindau is one of the two high schools in the city of Lindau (Bodensee) .
history
The high school originated from a Latin school that was founded in 1528 during the Reformation . The first head of this school was Caspar Heldelin . In addition to Latin, Greek , Hebrew , philosophy and rhetoric were taught. In 1641 the Latin school moved to the barefoot monastery on the island of Lindau (today's municipal theater ).
In 1859 a three-class commercial and trade school was founded, which was converted into a six-class secondary school in 1877. The older Latin school was incorporated as a humanistic branch in 1917. In 1938 this heterogeneous structure was transformed into an eight-class "German High School", where the first matriculation exams were taken in 1939 .
In 1945, in the course of the democratic restructuring and reorganization of schools, a new upper secondary school with grammar school was opened. In 1959/60 a new school building was erected on Reutiner Strasse with renovations and extensions up to the most recent times. Since 1965 this school in Aeschach has been called "Bodensee-Gymnasium" (short: BOGY).
From 2015 to 2019, Edward King was the headmaster. In 2019 he retired, since then Jutta Merwald has taken over the management.
structure
The Bodensee-Gymnasium comprises three areas of study:
- Economics and social science high school with an economics profile (WSG-W in the 8-year-old form so far, WWG in the 9-year-old form in future)
- Linguistic high school (SG) with Italian as a third foreign language
- Science and technology high school (NTG).
As everywhere in Bavaria, the transition to a nine-year grammar school began with grade 5 of the 2017/18 school year .
