history

the main entrance

The building that was used after the establishment of the grammar school on Hochdahler Strasse was no longer up to date in 1967, so it was decided to build a new one. The new building on Adlerstrasse was inaugurated in 1969 and expanded in the following years. The school orchestra was founded in the 1970s, the school choir and the school newspaper Medium began their work. In October 1987 the school conference decided to set up a condom machine . However, the decision was later dropped and, in addition to the condomat, the candy shop in the caretaker's box was closed. A discarded railroad car that has been standing in the school's courtyard has served, among other things, as a wagon for the student council since 1989, where they can also buy exercise books or pens.

In 2017 the school celebrated its 50th anniversary.

European school

Since December 6, 2013, the grammar school has been awarded the certificate European School of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia . This honor is made possible by the European school profile, the European idea is firmly anchored in the school program. There are numerous exchange programs to France , Hungary , the Netherlands , Senegal , Argentina , Italy , Latvia , Croatia and Poland . In addition, the language certificates DELF and Cambridge are offered, as well as elective subjects in the eighth grade, either Spanish or bilingual lessons called cultural studies .

New building

Auditorium of the grammar school (demolished)

Since the building is in need of renovation, a new building was decided in December 2012. There has been intensive new building planning since 2013. The spatial and functional program has already been approved by the Haan city council. Instead of the planned demolition in 2016, the main hall and all benches, trees and stairs in the schoolyard were demolished in September 2017. The laying of the foundation stone for the new building, which is being built on the site of the former auditorium, took place on July 9, 2018. The plan is to complete the new building at the beginning of the 2020/2021 school year in summer and then to begin with the demolition of the old building complex.

classes

The grades are usually in four classes. For the upper level there is a cooperation with the Helmholtz-Gymnasium Hilden . This enables almost all possible advanced courses to be offered for the qualification phase. Particularly noteworthy are the Latin and French courses offered at the Haaner Gymnasium. In addition, there is a cooperation with the Emil-Barth-Realschule Haan for the lower and middle grades, whereby joint programs for language certificates, facilitation of school transitions and other things can be offered. In the fifth grade there are the main subjects music / musicals, robotics and sports. These allow a deeper understanding of the material offered by increasing the number of hours in this subject.
