history

Former LLS building (1913–1976), now a Catholic secondary school

In 1906, the school was founded and October 1 as Joint higher boys' school Opladen opened with 25 students. The founding was run by parents from the surrounding communities and significantly supported by Lucas. In 1910 she was transferred to the Paritätische higher boys' school and the municipal secondary school i. E. Renamed (pending), in 1912 in Reform Realprogymnasium with Realschule . A school building of its own was built in 1913 on Opladener Straße Im Hederichsfeld . In 1916 the school was called Reform Realgymnasium with Realschule, in 1926 Reformrealgymnasium with Oberrealschule .

In 1933 it was the first school in Germany to be named after Adolf Hitler : Adolf-Hitler-Realgymnasium with Oberrealschule . Teachers critical of the regime were given leave of absence or were transferred to prison, while Jewish students were dismissed. Due to the forced closure of the Catholic Aloysianum in 1938, a large number of students were taken over from there. After the introduction of the German Oberschule , the school was called Adolf Hitler School from 1937 - municipal high school for boys .

After 1945 it was called the Natural Science Gymnasium , before it was renamed the Landrat-Lucas-Schule (natural science high school with a modern language branch) in 1956 for the 50th anniversary . In 1963 the current building on Opladener Marktplatz was moved into by the science branch of the school. This building has since been expanded, rebuilt and renovated several times. The modern language branch remained in the previous building in Im Hederichsfeld . In 1964, both branches were converted into independent schools. The scientific branch became District Administrator Lucas School I , the modern language branch District Administrator Lucas School II .

Girls have also been admitted since the late 1960s. In 1976, LLS II was merged with the Ina Seidel School under the name Werner Heisenberg School and relocated to the Leverkusen district of Lützenkirchen (Holzhausen district). The buildings of the old Ina Seidel School were integrated into the LLS as lower level buildings (again without the number I). In 2001 it was finally renamed the District Administrator-Lucas- Gymnasium . For the 100th anniversary in 2006, around 1750 students attended the LLG.

particularities

In the 1970s, new, at the time not uncontroversial concepts for reforming the upper level of the gymnasium (introduction of the course system) were tried out. As one of the first schools she offered subjects such as computer science , art , theater or Chinese on - first as a volunteer working groups, then as regular courses, some later as advanced courses . Due to its size, it was also possible to offer the students “exotic” subjects such as Russian or Italian as advanced courses.

Since 2009 the school and district library Opladen has been housed on the ground floor of the main building.

In the past few decades, the LLS was able to attract a large number of participants and winners in competitions such as Jugend forscht / pupils experiment , Jugend musiziert , Mathematik Olympiad and Jugend trained for Olympia .

The LLG is an elite school of sport , an elite school of football and a member of MINT-EC as well as in the network School without Racism - School with Courage .
