history

The Humboldt School in Lindener Beethovenstraße, which was not implemented in this way (today used by IGS-Linden); Plate 51 from Volume 3 (1902) of the Architectural Character Pictures with artist signature and date by the architect Carl Arend

The Humboldt School emerged from a secondary school that began teaching on April 10, 1899 in the rooms of the former middle school ( → map ) on Davenstedter Strasse in Linden (then still an independent town). On October 14, 1902, the school received its own, newly built building ( → map ) in Lindener Beethovenstrasse and was now officially called the Humboldt School . The first secondary school exams took place in 1905. The school got an upper level and became a high school. The first matriculation examination took place in 1908 .

In 1926 the Landheim Association was founded, which set up the Landheim in Ovelgönne . The country home had to be sold in 2006. The former Landheim association became the development association. The association of former Humboldt students was founded in 1930.

During the time of National Socialism , the Humboldt School was initially converted into a high school for boys , where from 1937 the Abitur could be taken after 12 years. During the Second World War , high school students were obliged to serve as flak helpers . The air raids on Hanover did not destroy the building in Beethovenstrasse , but after the instruction of students from other schools, from 1943 onwards, classes were only taught in shifts and were finally stopped completely.

The Humboldt School was only able to resume operations in autumn 1945. In 1962 the school moved into its new school building on Ricklinger Straße , moving in was June 22, the birthday of Alexander von Humboldt. In the old school building on Beethovenstrasse, the secondary level II of the Integrated Comprehensive School Hannover-Linden is now located .

Since 1971 the Humboldt School, which until then was a boys' grammar school, has also been accepting girls. Around the same time, the other grammar school in Linden, the girls’s grammar school Helene-Lange-Schule , introduced co-education and took boys in. In 1972, as part of a trial program by the Ministry of Culture, the college system for the upper school level was introduced - the forerunner of today's course system .

In 1978, grades 5 and 6 were separated as part of the orientation level in Lower Saxony, which was independent of the school type , so that until 2004 only classes 7 to 13 were taught. The branch of the Humboldt School, where classes 5 and 6 are taught, is located in the Egestorff School in Hanover, directly opposite the main building.

The school camp in Ovelgönne near Celle was given up at the end of 2006. The Humboldt School has been an all-day school since 2012 and has received a spacious cafeteria as part of this reorientation. A renovation of the classrooms has already taken place in this context, a renovation of the specialist rooms is planned.

Personalities

principal

  • 1944–1952 Mr. True
  • 1952–1969 Martin Schwind
  • 1969–1981 Rudi Wölz

After Rudi Wölz retired, a new headmaster could not be named immediately. After a few months of acting school management by the deputy director Wolfgang Fregien, a successor was found in Dietrich Umbreit in 1983, but he left the school in 1985. There were protests from teachers and students about the new appointment of the head of school. Most teachers and many students now demanded that Fregien, who had temporarily taken over the school management for the second time, be made the new director. This was rejected by the Ministry of Education, because the applicant for a headmaster position should not come from their own teaching staff, if possible. There were demonstrations in the course of which around 400 students occupied the stairs of the Hanover town hall, among other things. In 1986, however, the candidate for the Ministry of Culture, Peter Fischer, who remained the headmaster until 2003, was appointed. Fregien became headmaster of the Schillerschule (Hanover) .

In 2003 Henning Lawes took over the school management.
