history
As early as 1897, the Franciscan Sisters of Sießen had set up an educational institution for girls and women in the former Hotel Deeg “Zur Krone” in Friedrichshafen. In 1917 this moved to the Villa Taubenheim, where it developed in the following years from a “boarding school for senior daughters” to a public secondary school for girls. By order of the National Socialists, the school was closed in 1936. The building, which was then used for teaching municipal schools and later as a dormitory for workers from the armaments factories, was destroyed in 1944 bombings. After school had been idle for another fifteen years after the end of the war, in 1960 the St. Antonius commercial school in Karlstrasse started the first class of the newly founded St. Elisabeth secondary school for girls . In the 1060s the school was renamed the St. Elisabeth Girls' Realschule .
In 1965, the new school building at Werastraße 23, which began in 1963 according to plans by the architect Hanns Schlichte, was completed. The inauguration took place on September 21, 1965. In 1977 the building was extended by one floor (six classrooms). Further modifications took place in 1984/85 and 1991/92. In 1996 the schools in Sießen were transferred to the "Sießen Schools gGmbH" and thus obtained legal independence. In 1993, pupils, teachers and parents founded the Friends of the Girls' Realschule St. Elisabeth e. V. as a sponsoring association of the school.
Since the 2012/13 school year, the school has also been accepting boys and, as the St. Elisabeth secondary school for girls and boys, offers co-educational classes in addition to all-girls classes.
Lessons and offers
Religious focuses are set by the morning circle , daily school prayer , regular church services, days of reflection for grades 7 to 9 and various study trips to the monastery days in Sießen as well as to Assisi and Rome .
The teachings of Franz von Assisis and Elisabeth von Thuringia also flow into the overall concept. Another important offer is the vocational orientation ( BORS ), which enables the pupils in grade 9 to gain an initial insight into the world of work and to help them find a career.
Working groups are offered in the musical-creative, scientific and social fields. A partnership with the Collège Lycée Saint-Joseph from Vendôme has existed for 35 years .
