The Christian-Rohlfs-Gymnasium (CRG) in Hagen is a state high school for secondary levels I and II sponsored by the city of Hagen. The number of students currently amounts to a total of 850 to 900.

history

The history of today's grammar school goes back to the founding of a private secondary school for girls in Haspe in 1862, which was awarded the status of a public educational institution ten years later by the local administration as a “secondary school for girls ”. As a result of the school reform of 1908, the Prussian higher girls 'schools were put on an equal footing with the boys' schools, so that this private school was taken over as a municipal lyceum by the then still independent town of Haspe. On April 2, 2009, this date was celebrated as the 100th anniversary of the municipal high school for girls.

In April 1924 the school already had 300 pupils, but due to the financial hardship of the community, they still lacked their own school building. After the incorporation of Haspe in 1929, the city of Hagen continued to run the school and, from 1932, moved it to the vocational school building on the banks of the Ennepe, which was built shortly before by the architect Günther Oberste-Berghaus in the Bauhaus style .

Building of the former secondary school Heubing, taken over by Christian-Rohlfs-Gymnasium in 2013/14

After the Second World War, the grammar school completely moved into the building that was supplemented by a new building. In the early 1970s, the first boys started school as part of the co-education , and after the former Hasper boys' grammar school was converted into a comprehensive school in 1986 , the Christian Rohlfs grammar school is now the only remaining urban grammar school in a suburb of Hagen alongside the Hohenlimburg grammar school. In 2004 the listed building was extended to the east by another new wing. Since the closure of the neighboring Heubing secondary school , the grammar school has also been using the old secondary school building ("Villa Heubing"), which is adjacent to the main building to the west.

Name of the school

The name of the school goes back to the expressionist Christian Rohlfs from Hagen . The painter, born in 1849, came to Hagen in 1901 through the mediation of Henry van de Velde and Karl Ernst Osthaus and was made an honorary citizen of the city of Hagen in 1924. The high school has been named after the artist since the 1969/70 school year.

Students and teachers

While the number of students at Christian-Rohlfs-Gymnasium was still below 700 in 1996, it has leveled off at between 850 and 900 students since the turn of the century. Today the teaching staff consists of almost 70 teachers, most of whom are employed full-time, but some work part-time.

School-specific offers

The Christian-Rohlfs-Gymnasium offers a wide range of natural science, language and social science subjects, but has two school-specific focuses:

Since 1980, music education has been an essential focus at the school, and the school's “break choir” has set accents beyond the Hagen city limits. The school's choir and orchestra or big band perform in public every year.

Since 2001, the school has set up a bilingual branch, which increasingly offers the English language in lower secondary level and also teaches the foreign language in the subjects geography, history and politics; This branch then leads to basic and advanced courses in the foreign language English at upper secondary level .
