The Goethe-Gymnasium Schwerin is a grammar school in Schwerin with the status of a music high school .

history

In 1948/49 the Goethe School at Pfaffenteich was established as a high school for boys on August-Bebel-Straße by merging the Fridericianum grammar school , the secondary school in today's Friedensstraße and the upper secondary school in Bergstraße . From 1950 the school took on girls and was merged with the upper secondary school for girls. From 1970 there was a second school location in the Lankow development area in the north-west of Schwerin. As early as 1976 the school moved to another prefabricated building on the Großer Dreesch and in 1984 again, this time to the Weststadt .

After the political turning point in 1989 , the extended secondary school was converted into a grammar school from grade five onwards due to the “First School Reform Act of the State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania” of April 26, 1991. In 1998 the Lessing-Gymnasium founded in 1991 was dissolved and merged with the Goethe-Gymnasium.

The school was renovated from 2012. At the same time, a new replacement building was built. The completion took place at the beginning of the school year 2016/17.

Music high school

In 1979 a special branch of music was set up, which followed a long musical tradition and qualified artistic work at the Goethe School. Starting with grade nine, a special class for music was set up, whose pupils received voice training and instrumental lessons.

In 1991 a children's choir, a chamber orchestra and a big band were added to the traditional youth choir. Since 1993, the special musical training has taken place from the seventh grade, now it takes place from the fifth grade. In 1994 the school received the status of a music high school . An aptitude test is required for admission to the music class.
