history

The Richard-Wossidlo-Gymnasium Ribnitz-Damgarten is a merger of the two high schools in Ribnitz and Damgarten. The school is located in Damgarten.

Ribnitz School

The Ribnitz School was founded in 1834 and went through several changes in the type of school, the school premises and the school name.

After the Second World War , the school was temporarily used as a hospital and was converted into a high school for girls and boys in grades 9 to 12 with a boarding school by 1947 .

On March 31, 1950, the school was named after the local historian and writer Richard Wossidlo .

In 1955/1956 the Ribnitz School became an extended secondary school (EOS). From 1982 the student body was limited to grades 11 and 12, in 1990 grades 10 were resumed.

Damgarten School

The Damgarten School goes back to a sexton school next to the Damgarten Church from 1570. The town founded its own school in 1698. In 1863 a new school building was built.

The ceremonial opening of the new main building in the Damgarten district in June 2002 gave the starting signal for the relocation of the grammar school. Since 2003, the school has officially only consisted of the Damgarten location, which was modernized and partly rebuilt under the sponsorship of the district of North Western Pomerania and the State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania for the equivalent of € 30 million. The number of pupils has fluctuated in recent years due to the irregularly strong birth cohorts, ranging from around 1200 pupils in 2004 to only around 600 in 2008. However, the Richard-Wossidlo-Gymnasium Damgarten retains its functional role as a central high school location As before, as students from the rural area of ​​the Ribnitz-Damgarten community are concentrated here.
