The Märkisches Gymnasium has been a district high school for the western districts of the city of Hamm since it moved from the center in 1973 . From this spatial location and the needs of the people who live here, the specific social mandate of this school is constituted: to provide high school education to many students who are traditionally not related to this course of education or who have a migration background, as well as the provision of cultural offers in the west of the city. The second social mission of the school results from the opening of the development branch at the then modern language grammar school in 1964. For more than forty years, the school has taken on a function for the educational system of the entire municipality and thus laid the foundation for the long tradition of teaching students Realschule and Hauptschule, with a qualification note, to enable them to attend the gymnasiale Oberstufe and thus open the way to the technical college entrance qualification and the Abitur.
Earlier names
To mark the centenary, naming the “new language” was lively discussed. The former name Graf-Adolf-von-der-Mark-Oberschule, ordered by Mayor Erich Deter in 1937 in the Führer style, only unwillingly accepted by the college, had become unacceptable. School members reacted with reluctance even to the name Adolf in the title. It took 22 years after the Second World War until a new name was given. The official name in its full form was initially after the council resolution of February 20, 1970: Märkisches Gymnasium Hamm, Städtisches Neusprachliches Gymnasium and advanced high school for secondary school leavers . The current name is Märkisches Gymnasium Hamm .
history
In 1867 the rectorate school was founded at the parish church of St. Agnes. In 1907 she moved to the new building on the corner of Franziskanerstrasse and Brüderstrasse. In 1922 it was converted into a Realprogymnasium, and in 1924 into a Realgymnasium. In 1925 the school moved to Hohe Straße, where an extension was later built. The first trip to the school camp on Wangerooge took place in 1927. In 1927 the first high school graduates were released. In 1937 it was renamed Graf-Adolf-von-der-Mark-Schule.
In 1944 the school house was destroyed by fire bombs. The lessons could be resumed in 1946 as part of a dual institution together with the later Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium in the former infantry barracks. From 1951 the school was again independent as a modern language grammar school in Hohen Strasse. In 1964 a “development branch for secondary school graduates” was set up, and in 1966 the first female high school graduates were released from the previously purely boys' school.
In 1967 the grammar school celebrates its centenary. One year after the anniversary, the city council decided to build the new language grammar school. The grammar school was renamed the Märkisches grammar school in 1970. The topping-out ceremony for the new school building was celebrated in 1972 on Wilhelm-Liebknecht-Strasse. The new building was inaugurated in 1973. In the same year, the differentiation was introduced in the upper secondary school. In 1992 the school celebrated its 125th anniversary. The new show program was developed in 1996. In 1998 the “MGH - 25 Years of the District School in Hammer West” became. The extension was inaugurated in 2003. The MGH was transformed into the first all-day high school in Hamm at the beginning of the 2009/10 school year. The cafeteria opened on September 28, 2011.
