The Copernicus-Gymnasium is a high school in the Baden-Württemberg city ​​of Philippsburg .

history

The school town of Philippsburg housed a Latin school in the late modern period, and "[...] the arithmetic that is so necessary for the local trade [...]" was maintained on May 4, 1965, the Progymnasium Philippsburg "[...] with 66 Schoolchildren (35 boys and 31 girls) in two classes [as a branch of the Justus-Knecht-Gymnasium in Philippsburg]. ”The first headmaster, Kurt Brandes, initiated the new construction of the building that is now part of the gymnasium on the school campus.

The sundial

The grammar school received a name in 1980. In a survey, Copernicus prevailed over Wernher von Braun and the Humboldt brothers. In a speech on October 18, 1980, the name was given. The model of the school is based on Nicolaus Copernicus.

Profiles

  • Linguistic profile with the foreign language sequence: English (grade 5) - Latin (grade 6) - Spanish (grade 8)
  • Scientific profile with the following subjects: English (grade 5) - French (grade 6) - science and technology (grade 8)

If the organizational possibilities and the supply of teachers allow, students with the language profile from grade 8 onwards can do without the third foreign language and switch to the science profile. Students of the natural science profile will be offered Spanish as a third foreign language from Grade 8, which enables them to switch to the language profile at a later date.

MINT

In 2014 the school received the "MINT-friendly" award and continues to participate in the recertification program. MINT includes the subjects of mathematics, computer science as well as science and technology, which also includes physics, chemistry, biology and NwT.
