history

Former school building on Wall

At the beginning of March 1830, General Superintendent Ferdinand Weerth proposed to his sovereign Prince Leopold II a plan to found a "daughter's school" in Detmold. He approved it on March 10, 1830 , so that lessons could begin on April 13, 1830. The school began in two rooms in Neustadt and moved to Leopoldstrasse 23 in November 1831. In the summer of 1841 the school was housed in the New Palais until the rented rooms at Exterstrasse 30 were available. When the rooms in Exterstrasse could no longer withstand school operations, Director Drüner offered to build a new school building on Wall (Wall 5) at his own expense. The city pays him interest on the construction costs for that part of the school. With a renovation and an extension in 1911, the school stayed in this building until 1966. In the following decades the “Töchterschule” developed into the current city high school : from 1871 the school was called the Höhere Töchterschule , from 1893 the municipal higher girls’s school (after being taken over by the City of Detmold on April 1, 1893), from 1912 municipal lyceum , from 1928 municipal upper lyceum, from 1938 municipal secondary school for girls, from 1950 municipal modern language high school for girls, from 1960 municipal high school for girls in Detmold with modern language and social science branch and women's secondary school and finally since August 1, 1969 Detmold City High School. In 1894 and 1908, the Principality of Lippe took over the reform provisions of Prussia, through which the girls 'schools were equated with the boys' schools. In 1925 the term of office of Gerhard Bonwetsch began , who brought the school through the National Socialist dictatorship and World War II. With the establishment of a Obersekunda in 1928, the opportunity was created to take the Abitur examination at the Oberlyzeum . The first pupils then did their Abitur at the municipal high school in 1931. From 1912 to 1930 women could only take their Abitur in Detmold at the Leopoldinum . The National Socialist state pushed back school education for girls, so that from 1936 onwards the female graduates were temporarily no longer allowed to study with the school leaving examination and the lessons should take more into account the "female nature". In 1950 the girls' high school got Hildegard Sauerbier, the first female headmistress in its history. Hildegard Sauerbier was one of the first women ever to be allowed to study in Berlin and accordingly she strongly advocated the right of girls to education. Since December 5, 1966 , it has been located as the Detmold municipal high school on Hiddeser Berg, in a building designed by the Osnabrück architect Friedel Helbrecht , which, in addition to the main building, has a specialist section for biology, chemistry, physics and art, which has a red closed bridge can be achieved. Coeducation was introduced on August 1, 1969, and the name was changed from urban girls' high school to Stadtgymnasium Detmold. On August 1, 1970, the municipal high school for girls with a modern language and social science branch was revoked and the model of the upper level reform designed by the Detmold municipal high school was tested. The cooperation with the Ministry of Culture of North Rhine-Westphalia helped the school to gain a national reputation. An emergency hospital was located under the building until the end of the 1990s. The rooms of the former hospital have been used by the city archive since 2015. The original construction of the main building, specialist wing and gymnasium was first supplemented by a further gymnasium (green gymnasium) and then expanded to include a classroom building for the lower level (extension building).

The bridge between the main building and the specialist class wing

The Stadtgymnasium attaches great importance to modern-language, music-artistic, natural-scientific-mathematical and social science education.

A quote from Theodor Fontane was inserted into the facade in stone-chiseled 1964 and formulates the educational claim: "O learn to think with the heart and learn to feel with the spirit."

The fifth grades are formed according to pedagogical criteria in order to achieve a balanced class structure. In the first half of the year, each class gets to know the profile courses in music, science, economics and society. From the second half of the fifth grade onwards, each child chooses a profile course in one of the subjects, which comprises one double period per week. A wind instrument is relearned in the music profile course. The profile courses then result in accents for further education through participation in competitions and organization of teaching in projects. In grades 5 and 6, all students have intensified English lessons, extended by one hour per week, which creates the opportunity for bilingual lessons from the 7th grade and leads to the bilingual Abitur.

Due to the corona pandemic , computer science was introduced as a compulsory subject in grades 5 and 6 earlier than planned in order to improve the basics for teaching at a distance .

In addition to English, French and Latin, the city high school also offers Spanish as a foreign language, which can be learned from the eighth grade. Instead of Spanish, from the 8th grade onwards, computer science, Europe, aesthetic education or natural science can be chosen as elective courses.

In the subjects English, French and Spanish, certificates can already be obtained at school, which are required for studying at English ( TOEFL ), Spanish ( Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera ) or French-speaking ( DELF ) universities. From the school year 2010/2011, the school is recognized as a CertiLingua school in accordance with the provisions of the Certilingua label of excellence.

Since the school year 2009/2010, the school has had its own cafeteria in addition to the cafeteria, where food cooked on site is offered. After class, the students can go to homework support or take part in the in-school tutoring (tutors' ring) or visit a study group.

As part of the school's support concept for individual and more successful learning by students, reference can be made to the school's three-pillar model:

In the first area, all students receive intensive support and advice over two student consultation days per school year. Diverse inclinations and interests of the students are addressed through a wide range of study groups.
The second department is about the promotion of special talents, for example the development of language skills in bilingual English lessons or musical skills in the school's wind orchestras, but also of natural science talents, for example in the cooperation with the Weidmüller company since January 2002.
The third task of the The support concept consists of compensating for the learning difficulties of individual students, for which homework supervision or school tutoring have been set up.

Since August 1997 there has been a school medical service , which includes pupils who have at least been trained in first aid . They provide first aid in the event of accidents , injuries and illnesses until the emergency services arrive . Further tasks can be found in the medical service care of school events. The school medical service is organized as a working group.

Since the beginning of 2012, the Stadtgymnasium has had an online learning platform ( Moodle ) to which both students and teachers or every class and course have access.

In 2014, the school community made up of students, parents and teachers decided to actively combat racism and joined the initiative School without Racism - School with Courage .

School without racism

Since 2008 pupils have participated in the selection for the European Youth Parliament. The student delegations from the city high school have repeatedly qualified for the European Youth Parliament and represented Germany at international meetings.

In December 2016, the Stadtgymnasium Detmold was recognized as a European school by the Ministry of Culture of North Rhine-Westphalia .

Partnerships

The Stadtgymnasium cooperates in the advanced courses in the upper level with the two other urban Detmold high schools, the Christian-Dietrich-Grabbe-Gymnasium and the Leopoldinum .

Trivia

The city high school was three times in the finals of the school duel organized by the radio station 1Live and won it in 2014 with its teacher Christoph Reuter.
