history
The school was founded in Berlin-Schöneberg in 1889 as the “Catholic Higher Girls School”. In 1918 the order of the Franciscan Sisters from Nonnenwerth took over the sponsorship. The "Lyceum of the Franciscan Sisters in Berlin-Schöneberg" was created. In 1940 the National Socialists ordered the school to be closed. The Allied air raids on February 3, 1945 the school building was totally destroyed. Despite the destroyed buildings, the order received the approval to resume school operations in the rooms of the parish of St. Matthias in June 1945.
The main building was built between 1958 and 1959 based on a design by Margot Zech-Weymann and was inaugurated in 1959 by Julius Cardinal Döpfner . It is a listed building monument. The first boys' class started school on April 1, 1959, but coeducational lessons were not introduced in the primary school until September 2, 1967. In 1970 the Episcopal Ordinariate Berlin became the sponsor of the school. It got its current organizational form as the state-recognized Catholic School Sankt Franziskus (Franziskusschule or KSSF for short). On April 1, 1989, the 100th anniversary of the school's founding was celebrated. From 2004 the school branches were no longer separated. From now on the high school was called the Integrated Reform School (IRS), from 2008 the Integrated Secondary School (ISS). At the beginning of the 2008 school year, the upper level of the gymnasium was reopened and an Abitur examination took place in spring 2011 for the 13th grade.
