history

In 1808 a Ms. Ebert from Frankfurt (Oder) asked the Consistorial Councilor Hermes for permission to set up an educational institution for women in Quedlinburg. In fact, a Ms. Wippermann, wife of a Quedlinburg entrepreneur, founded a private secondary school for girls, which was set up in the house of the Wurmstich family at 63 Hohen Strasse in Quedlinburg. 40 students were taught in the school. However, the number of female students turned out to be too low and financial difficulties arose. The spatial conditions were also bad. Ultimately, school operations had to be stopped again. In 1840 the city of Quedlinburg, the state and the Protestant church committed to the continuation of the school. This was followed by a new establishment as a secondary school for girls by a Dr. Creator. This private school established four classes in 1841. Financial problems continued. From 1843 clerical conductors campaigned for the school.

On March 2, 1863, the city of Quedlinburg took over the school under Mayor Brecht as the municipal secondary school for girls. The first principal of the school was Mr. Hasenbalg from 1865 to 1872. The school was already running physical training based on the GutsMuths concept. Theodor Müller was rector from 1872 to 1897. On November 1, 1876, the school moved with 140 pupils into the house of the carpenter Rath in Weberstrasse. By 1879 the number of female students had risen to 170. In the course of a school reform in 1894, the school became a nine-class high school for girls with four preschool classes.

From 1897 to 1905 Hans Löhr held the office of rector of the school. An extension took place during his tenure. Including an advanced class, the school had 230 students. During the term of office of the director Ehrichs (1905-1909) the school became a lyceum after a further school reform in 1908 . During the short term of office of the next director, Theile (1909–1911), a second extension was built in 1910. In 1918 the pre-school system was abolished. In 1919 a one-year women's school was added. In 1920 the director Knoke also took over the private kindergarten teachers' seminar at Neustädter Kirchhof. There were plans to convert the school into an upper secondary school with the introduction of the secondary school leaving examination . In 1935 the school was then introduced as a high school for girls and a three-year Abitur level. The first High School All tests were performed in 1938. On July 4 of that year, they renamed the school after Elisabeth Loeper , the wife of the Nazi party - Gauleiter Wilhelm Friedrich Loeper .

During this time various buildings belonged to the school. Weberstrasse 6 acted as the main building. Weberstrasse 9 housed the seminar for kindergarten teachers and after-school care workers. A kindergarten and other classrooms were located on Kaplanei Street, and the daycare center on Heiliggeiststraße.

During the Second World War , school operations were largely stopped from November 1944. Only the after-school care building could be heated. With up to 75 students per class, lessons were only given by the hour. From April to September 1945 classes were completely suspended. From October 1945 school operations were resumed on the instructions of the occupation authorities. The Neustädter Schule was still used as a military hospital and barracks for Soviet troops until 1946 . The students attended the boss school . The number of students had increased due to refugees.

In the years from 1946 the market school and the Mummental school were run jointly by the Rector Stolze. In total, the schools had 1,391 students in 8 classes and 23 primary school classes. The Mummentalschule then moved to Weberstrasse 6 in November 1946, which also became the main building. The number of pupils rose in 1947/1948 to 1713 pupils in 15 upper and 25 lower classes. A special feature was the so-called hall singing, which started every week. This was a continuation of the tradition of the Mummental School as a singing school, which had existed since 1938. The division of classes was organized in 1948/1949 in such a way that classes 1 to 3 were taught in the market school and classes 4 to 8 in Weberstrasse. Because of the shortage of space, classes were held in the mornings and afternoons. On September 1, 1949, the market school became independent again.

House Weberstrasse 6

The school, known as the Mummental School, had rooms at Weberstrasse 6 and 9 and was then renamed the Ursula Goetze School on June 26, 1950 . The school had 21 classes. The change of many teachers to the western part of Germany proved to be problematic. In September 1955 the Ursula Goetze School and the Market School were merged again. 31 classes were taught, with classes 1 to 4 again being housed in the market school and classes 5 to 8 in Weberstrasse. In 1958/1959 a 9th grade was introduced. A year later, the school developed into the Polytechnic Oberschule (POS) had three 9th and one 10th grades. At the beginning of the 1970s, the market school became an independent POS.

After the political change in 1989 , the school became a primary school with grades 1 to 4 following a school reform. At the school, reading and spelling classes were set up for grades 2 to 3 , which are used by children from the entire district.

In February 1992 the school was renamed Neustädter Grundschule. Various renovation and renovation work on the school building followed, such as replacing the heating, the windows and the roof. From 1994 to 1996 the school received new toilets, from 1997 a new electrical installation and redesigned hallways and classrooms. Overall, the construction work continued until 2004. From 1990, the after-school care center was initially on Oehringer Straße, later on Weberstraße 9 and today in the main building. The after-school care center has been run by the city of Quedlinburg since 2001/2002. In that school year, the school also got a computer room and a new playground.

The school became a school with fixed opening times and later a school with reliable opening times. The tradition of the singing school was continued. There is a theater group in the Neustädter Grundschule. In 2005/2006 the school became a language support center.

There are 12 teachers, 2 pedagogical employees, 4 after-school teachers and 4 technical and office technicians working at the school.
