The Schwarzwald-Gymnasium Triberg (short: SGT) is a state high school in Triberg in the Black Forest , Baden-Wuerttemberg , which emerged from the private school with boarding school "Schwarzwaldschule - Private Oberschule". Parts of the school building are under monument protection .

history

The first efforts to establish a community school in the city of Triberg go back to the second half of the 19th century. The economic rise of the city and the rapid population growth had increased the desire for an expansion of the school education offer during this time, especially the emerging middle class no longer wanted to be satisfied with the compulsory local elementary school . However, the plans initially failed, both because of the high costs and the lack of suitable teachers. For decades, the citizens had to be content with a wide variety of temporary arrangements. Finally, the stubborn waiting in Karlsruhe but led however to success: In 1905, the Grand Ducal school inspector approved the establishment of an independent public school, and they took in the fall of 1905 initially with a Sexta and Quinta the sublevels operation. This was the hour of birth of what would later become the grammar school.

In the following years the school was expanded rapidly. In 1908 it became a higher middle school with the establishment of an upper secondary school, in 1909 after the formation of a lower secondary school - today grade 10 - it became a grand ducal secondary school. This completed the build-up phase. The new school took place in the population very well received not only in the area stem , but very early in the city Hornberg , from where the students came soon after Triberg to "junior high school". The number of pupils increased rapidly and it was soon necessary to build a school building of their own. This building was built in 1907/08 on Bergstrasse and is still used by the grammar school today.

The Realschule at that time formed the six-year short form of the Oberrealschule , which, like the old-language grammar school or the later Realgymnasium, led to the Abitur. The Realschule at that time did not convey a professional or an independent school qualification; Rather, its significance lay in the fact that, according to the military regulations of the German Reich, it was entitled to issue the “Certificate of academic qualification for one-year voluntary military service” after a six-year visit. This so-called “one-year-old” was qualification enough at that time, especially for the upper classes of the bourgeoisie. Those who pursued further goals could of course continue their school career at a foreign grammar school, for example in Villingen , up to the Abitur. The Triberg Realschule reached its climax immediately after the First World War in the school year 1918/19, when 208 pupils were taught in the six classes. In the following years, however, the number of pupils fell rapidly. The type of school lost its attractiveness mainly because the original qualification of the “one-year-old” lost its importance during the Weimar Republic and further qualifications were hardly associated with the secondary school leaving certificate.

In 1931 the school was taken over by a private sponsor, since 1933 it was called "Black Forest School - Private Oberschule". At the same time, a boarding school was added to the school, which had been under the direction of the pedagogue Hans Sproll since that year.

In 1952 the grammar school received state recognition and thus also the qualification for the Abitur. In 1966 the boarding school, now well-known in large parts of Germany, was converted into a GmbH ; From then on, the supporters were the Catholic and Protestant parishes in Triberg. The strong expansion in the boarding school area prompted the school authorities to acquire the former monastery "Maria Tann" near Unterkirnach in 1968 in order to relocate part of the boarding school there.

A crisis caused by many factors, in which numerous private schools got caught in the early 1970s, also raised the question of the continued existence of this educational institution in Triberg. The increased access by external students made this step seem justified. While about 40 percent of the students lived in the boarding school in the 1960s, the proportion of internal students in 1980 was less than ten percent. As a result of this development, the school had largely changed its function by the time it was "nationalized" in 1975: It was no longer primarily a boarding school, but rather a grammar school for the communities in the Triberg area - the basis for this was the decision of the Baden-Württemberg office Ministry of Culture from 1974 to build a publicly funded grammar school on August 1, 1975 instead of the previously private "Black Forest School Triberg". In March 1980, this transformation process also came to an end externally when the extension of the grammar school was inaugurated and given its intended purpose.

Since many of the upper school students began to prefer private apartments in the city of Triberg to boarding school life and other boarding schools offered more attractive sports and leisure activities, the number of “boarders” decreased increasingly. This ultimately led to the boarding school initially being leased and then finally closed in 1989. In 1995 the building was finally demolished.

The Schwarzwald-Gymnasium Triberg is today one of the smallest high schools in Baden-Württemberg with around 320 students. However, the requirements of the infrastructure in the area make the school an indispensable facility for the city of Triberg and its surrounding area.

architecture

The listed old building of the grammar school was built in 1907/08 according to the designs of the Karlsruhe architects Arthur Pfeifer and Hans Großmann under the construction management of the Triberg architect Rudolf Eisele. The building was built on the slope with a natural stone-view base as a two-storey plastered building in the local style. The stair tower has a distinctive Welsche dome , which also forms the highest point of the building. The steep gable roof has a wooden shingled gable.

Inside the old building there are numerous preserved wall-mounted fittings from the construction period, such as a tiled wall fountain and original historical wooden doors, as well as a double swing door that can also be used as an additional entrance. Ornamental wall tiles of different colors have also been preserved.

Profiles

The grammar school teaches two profiles from grade 8. A natural science profile with the subject natural science and technology as a new major and a linguistic profile with French and Spanish . Latin is also offered in AG form at the Schwarzwald-Gymnasium.

School trips

Since 1963 Triberg and Fréjus , France have been twinned, which also includes an annual school exchange with the Collège André Leotard and the Lycée Albert Camus . This takes place on both sides and lasts 8 days each. Another partnership exists with the Vincent Van Gogh College in Blénod-lès-Pont-à-Mousson . Every year, 8th grade students accept students from Blénod-lès-Pont-à-Mousson and offer them 8-day accommodation. There is also a one-week language exchange between the two schools.

Every year in grade 10 there is a one-week trip to England . In addition, Triberg students traditionally travel to Rome as part of a study trip in the course level and have the opportunity to take part in various course trips (e.g. Berlin , Weimar , Cologne , Milan , Prague ).

Hector Children's Academy - on-site school

Since June 2019, a location for the Hector Children's Academy in Schwarzwald-Baar has been set up at the Schwarzwald-Gymnasium Triberg. The academy's first courses were offered as early as winter 2019. In the afternoon courses, the inclinations, interests and talents of particularly gifted children are additionally encouraged. The offers are aimed at all particularly capable, interested, motivated and creative primary school children in the Schwarzwald-Baar catchment area , but also in the Ortenau district . The academy for primary school pupils is an important component of the promotion of talented students in the state of Baden-Württemberg. In the courses at the Children's Academy, elementary school children have the opportunity to discover and develop their personal talent focuses. Courses from the MINT area in particular are offered , but also in many other areas. The courses are intended to encourage independent and experimental learning. Participation is mostly free, only the trips to the courses have to be organized by the parents themselves.

The following procedure applies to the selection: The teachers of the primary schools in the catchment area ( Triberg , Schonach , Schönwald , Hornberg ) report to the management of the Hector Children's Academy in Schwarzwald-Baar the children who, in their opinion, have a special talent and special interest. With the consent of their parents, these children can then take part in the courses at the Schwarzwald-Baar Children's Academy at the respective locations.

Projects (selection)

Tablet project

In a school experiment the Ministry of Education tested the use of tablets in education at grammar schools since the school year 2017/2018. In addition to 4 pilot schools, the Schwarzwald-Gymnasium is one of 14 other model schools that are taking part in the trial. It is examined whether and under what conditions digital devices can promote learning processes. The Hector Institute for Empirical Educational Research at the University of Tübingen and the Leibniz Institute for Knowledge Media (IWM) are accompanying the school experiment.

History project: "Polish forced laborers in the Black Forest during the time of National Socialism"

In the school year 2008/2009, the tenth grade students of the Black Forest High School Triberg and the Polish schools Gymnasium 2 in Lask, Gymnasium 26 Nikolaus Kopernikus in Łódź, the general education Lyceum Tadeusz Kosciuszko in Lask and the Gymnasium Queen Jadwiga worked with the support of the Universities of Łódź ( Paweł Chmielewski) and Freiburg ( Heinrich Schwendemann ) in addition to teaching together on the project “Memory for the Past - Fate of the Forced Laborers of the Third Reich as a Message for the Generations of Europe”, a project funded by the EU.

Since the end of the project, excerpts of the results of the development have been presented on a specially created website. So two recorded presentations can be viewed - but interviews can also be heard in full (or cut thematically). The project was subsidized by the European Union with 20,000 euros.

School without racism - school with courage

The project School without Racism - School with Courage was decided by an initiative of the student council in the school year 2019/2020 and finally implemented on September 7, 2019, after a signature campaign . Over 78% of all people involved in school life previously spoke out in favor of a school with courage and thus agreed to the three SOR-SMC basic principles mentioned.
