The Gymnasium Pfarrkirchen (GymPan) is one of three grammar schools in the Rottal-Inn district .
history
The first forerunner of the grammar school was the agricultural winter school established in June 1871, which began with four students and in 1899 received the official name "Royal Agricultural Winter School". In the following year, the government of Lower Bavaria approved a 5-class agricultural school, which was the second of its kind after Lichtenhof . Joseph Ahr was appointed head of school by the Triesdorf district agricultural school, and rooms in the new town hall served as classrooms.
By 1906, the city of Pfarrkirchen on Arnstorfer Strasse had built its own building for the agricultural school with an adjoining boarding house, which could be moved into at the end of 1907 and which initially accepted 100 students.
Since 1903, the degree entitles the students to transfer to the Royal Academy for Agriculture and Brewery in Weihenstephan . By around 1920 the number of pupils increased to 200 and the catchment area of the school extended to all of southern Bavaria and Upper Austria.
In 1910 Alfred Alzheimer , the brother of the physician Alois Alzheimer , took over the management of the school. From the beginning he called for the introduction of a 6th grade in order to equate the school with the Bavarian secondary schools. This was introduced for the school year 1926/27, but this and the general economic crisis of the Weimar Republic led to a drop in the number of pupils at school and in boarding schools to around 100 pupils. The district council of Lower Bavaria was no longer able to raise the funds, so the Bavarian Ministry of Culture agreed to close the school. The city of Pfarrkirchen took over the school and continued to run it under the name "Municipal secondary school with agricultural and commercial department plus Latin classes" after an industry and three Latin classes were established. From then on, attending the Latin classes entitle them to transfer to a humanistic grammar school.
From 1938 the Bavarian state took over the municipal secondary school and introduced the advanced school that led directly to university entrance qualifications. At the end of the school year 1942/43, the classes of the secondary and agricultural schools were phased out, which meant the end of both schools. In the same year there was another change, since with a ministerial resolution of March 2, 1941, the advanced school was to be dismantled and an eight-grade high school was to be formed at the same time. The official name was now "German school home - high school for boys".
In 1946 the school was able to reopen as the "Oberrealschule", with Joseph Huber, who had previously worked as a religious teacher and who later became the Passau Chapter Chapter, took over the provisional management of the school. Since the school building was occupied by a military hospital until 1946, then by the International Refugee Organization (IRO) , the 566 students had to be taught in the boys' school, inns and other buildings for the school year 1948/49. On April 22, 1949, the building on Arnstorfer Straße was finally returned to the school and, after extensive renovation work, was able to be put back into operation.
With the changes in the Bavarian school system in 1965, all nine-class schools were renamed to grammar school, so that the grammar school in Pfarrkirchen was now called "grammar school Pfarrkirchen with state school home - mathematical-natural science, humanistic and modern-language grammar school". At the same time, a new language branch was introduced with Latin as the starting language.
In July 2004 Peter Brendel, the deputy press spokesman for the Bavarian Minister of Education, Monika Hohlmeier, was promoted to director of the grammar school. An unsuccessful applicant, however, sued the administrative court of Regensburg and was right. After another selection process, the ministry had confirmed Brendel's appeal, against which the plaintiff again lodged an objection, which he withdrew after inspecting the files.
Student home
Already at the time of the agricultural school, almost with the establishment of the same in 1907, a boarding school was set up, which accepted a large part of the students. When the city of Pfarrkirchen took over the agricultural school on September 1, 1931, it became the "municipal student home". In the following period of National Socialism there were some changes in the student home: In 1938 it was renamed "Deutsches Schulheim" and the previous spiritual director was deposed. All pupils had to become members of the Hitler Youth and were used to mobilize and harvest crops due to the war.
In 1945 the school and home building was occupied by a hospital and the student home was closed. It was not until September 1949 that it could be put back into operation as a "state school home". When the boarding school was rebuilt in 1965, a wing for girls, a farm building, workshops and other rooms were added.
Entrepreneurial High School Bavaria
As the only one of its kind in Germany, the business school was created at the Pfarrkirchen grammar school in 2006. Every year from the tenth grade, 30 to 40 students take additional lessons. Contents are taught about successful business start-ups and management, such as financing, accounting and marketing. Each student has a sponsor from the local economy. The patron is the company's founder Hans Lindner from the Lindner Group .
On March 21, 2007, the entrepreneur high school was awarded a prize by the “Germany - Land of Ideas” initiative as part of the “365 Landmarks in the Land of Ideas” competition.
School newspaper
In the school year 1958/59, Bavaria's first school newspaper "Der Rottfischer" was published at the Pfarrkirchen grammar school under the direction of Franz Handlos .
