The Remigianum in Borken was first mentioned in 1414 as a Latin school and is now a comprehensive urban high school, named after the Franconian Bishop Remigius von Reims , who is also the namesake of the Borken provost church of St. Remigius .
history
It was first mentioned as a Latin school in 1414 in a deed of gift from Johannes Walling , the first dean of the Borken college chapter, and around 1800 the school was transformed into a rectorate school . In 1921 the establishment of a 6th grade (grade 10) was approved by the Prussian Ministry of Culture and the school was simultaneously declared a Progymnasium . In 1927 the city decided to expand it into a humanistic high school in Borken , which was completed with the inauguration on November 11, 1929 in the expanded school building on Bocholter Strasse. In 1932, 29 senior primary students were the first to graduate from high school in Borken . With the seizure of power of the Nazi party in Germany in 1933, the school, including the former girls' school became the German High School Borken renamed. Towards the end of the Second World War , after 1943, school operations gradually ceased due to the drafting of the students for military service, and in 1944 all schools in Borken were closed. After the end of the war, school operations were resumed in the heavily damaged school building. From 1952 on, female pupils were also able to acquire the so-called Mittlere Reife ( technical college entrance qualification) through admission to the Untersekunda . In the years after the war, the grammar school established itself with a commitment to its Latin roots and in 1953 received its name, which still exists today, “ Städtisches Gymnasium Remigianum ”. Due to the increasing number of pupils, construction of the current school building began on October 13, 1962.
particularities
Thanks to the interdisciplinary orientation of the Remigianum, it was possible to win over diverse partners at national and international level, which culminated in acceptance into the MINT-EC Excellence Center.
The school also participates in the Lions Quest program , in the School and Business program and - in cooperation with the Nünning Realschule and the Montessori Comprehensive School - in the joint project "Against Forgetting".
