The Ludwigsgymnasium Straubing is a state-run science , technology and language grammar school in Straubing, Lower Bavaria .
history
Today's Ludwigsgymnasium was founded in 1837 as an agricultural and trade school. From 1877 it was a secondary school . The cramped conditions in the old trade school made it necessary to move to a new building on Stetthaimerplatz in 1913. Since 1914, the school also bears the name of the last Bavarian King Ludwig III.
In the Third Reich , the school was converted into a high school for boys, and after the end of the war it was finally merged with the humanistic grammar school , today's Johannes Turmair grammar school . This "double institution" existed until 1952. Since then was renamed the school as a secondary school , in 1964 as a secondary school with secondary school and since 1965 as a mathematics and natural sciences and modern languages school .
At the end of the 1960s, the company moved to a new building on Max-Planck-Strasse on the outskirts. This was inaugurated in 1968. The rapidly increasing number of pupils required extensive expansion measures just three years later. A high point was reached in 1974 with 1,133 students, after which the number of students decreased again to finally settle at around 500.
Also in 1974, a study seminar for trainee teacher training was set up. Today the Ludwigsgymnasium is a seminar school for the subjects German, English, mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry and history.
Extensive renovation work has been carried out on the school building since the turn of the millennium. Internal measures were taken first, then the school was also renovated outside. The largest structural measure was the cafeteria, which is directly connected to the auditorium and opened in 2008. In 2011 and 2012, the two gyms were completely refurbished, the intermediate building with changing rooms and equipment rooms between the two gyms was demolished and rebuilt with two floors.
In 2014 the auditorium was demolished and then completely rebuilt. The new building, which now houses the physics, bio and chemistry rooms, was completed towards the end of the 2016 autumn break. During the construction of the new building, the number of new registrations at the Ludwigsgymnasium collapsed, but 66 students again registered for the 2017/2018 school year, more than twice as many as in the previous year.
At the beginning of the 2019/2020 school year, the general renovation of the administration wing began, and the administration and library were moved to the old scientific rooms.
Lessons offered
The Ludwigsgymnasium offers the scientific-technological and modern language courses. The first foreign language is English, the second French or Latin (scientific branch) or the second Latin and the third French (modern language branch). Since the 2010/11 school year it has been possible to learn Spanish as a late-beginning foreign language from year 10 onwards.
Since the school year 2011/12, the Ludwigsgymnasium has been offering the enrichment program for particularly productive, highly talented and motivated students, in which campaigns in six different areas are organized over the entire school year. For this purpose, the school works with universities such as the University of Regensburg, but also with companies such as the Sturm Group (2011/12), Gluth Systemtechnik (2012/13) or KUKA AG (2013/14). In addition, every year a famous person comes to the Ludwigsgymnasium and spends a day with the students. In the school year 2011/12, the arithmetic artist Gert Mittring showed the students some math tricks, for example calculating the day of the week for any given date of birth. In 2012/13 Harald Lesch came to Luggy and, after a two-hour workshop with the students, presented a lecture in front of a large audience on the subject of "Where do we come from and who are there besides us?" In 2013/14, Oscar winner and former student Thomas Stellmach showed the beginnings of animation and was also able to encourage people to create their own, simple animations.
The theater group of the Ludwigsgymnasium under the direction of Karl-Heinz Frankl has received several awards. In 2005 she was invited to the theater festival in Berlin as part of the “Schiller 05” competition and counted with her play Fräulein Ritter. Glove scenes freely based on Schiller about the award winners.
The school has two computer rooms and a photovoltaic system . Afternoon care with lunch was introduced in 2003, but initially only used by a few students. The school's school newspaper, the Pennäler founded in 1949 , is the oldest school newspaper in Bavaria. After a long pause in publication, Pennäler has been published regularly since the 2009/2010 school year.
The partner schools of the Ludwigsgymnasium include schools from different countries with which a student exchange is offered. These include Holy Rosary College in Tuam , Ireland (annually), Ponderosa High School in Parker, Colorado (every two years), and Lycée Alain in Alençon , France (every two years).
