AHohenzollern-Gymnasium in Sigmaringen ktuelles A visitor to a German Gymnasium may assume that the curriculum and academic activities are the same in all secondary high schools in Germany. Such an assumption will most likely prove to be incorrect. Although local and regional differences from one Gymnasium to another become quite apparent, there are nevertheless many similarities. The Hohenzollern-Gymnasium is located in Sigmaringen, a small town in southern Germany, about 30 miles north of Switzerland and 70 miles northwest of Austria. The school was founded in 1818, at which time most of the students were taught by the clergy. Since 1975, when a new school was built, the Hohenzollern-Gymnasium has been a public secondary school under the jurisdiction of the City of Sigmaringen. The school is attended by 680 students (grades 5-13) in 28 classes. Less than half of these students come directly from Sigmaringen, with the rest commuting from 26 other towns or communities. Most students come by bus or train. During the warmer months, many students ride their bikes or walk to school. Since German teenagers cannot get a driver’s license before they are 18, only very few students come by car or motorcycle. About 4 percent of the students in this school are foreigners from such countries as Turkey, Afghanistan, Italy, Hungary and Yugoslavia. School starts Monday through Friday at 7:45 A.M. Each class period is 45 minutes long. After the first two periods, there is a 15-minute recess (Große Pause) followed by two more periods with a second 10minute recess. After another two periods, students are dismissed three of the five days at 12:50 P.M. On the other two days, students have a lunch break (Mittagspause) until 2:20 P.M. and get out of school after 4:55 P.M. Most students bring sandwiches or snacks to school which they eat during their recess or lunch break. They also can purchase food in a cafeteria around the block from the school or at a fast-food restaurant nearby. Beverages can be bought from a vending Lektion A Wie kommen sie in die Schule? Die Stadt Sigmaringen The name Hohenzollern goes back to the Graf von Zollern in the 11th century. In the year 1805, the Duchy of Hohenzollern became a sovereign principality and remained as such until 1849 when it was integrated into Prussia. Today, there are still some family members of the royal family in the Sigmaringer Schloss. 97
Was lernen sie? machine located in the hallway of the school or from the school’s janitor. Students have a choice of following three curriculum tracks. First, they may enroll in the ancient language track (altsprachlicher Zug) taking Latin, English and Greek. French can be substituted for Greek in the ninth grade. Second, they can select the modern language track (neusprachlicher Zug) with emphasis on English, French and Latin. Finally, they can take the natural science track (naturwissenschaftlicher Zug) that emphasizes such subjects as mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. Another characteristic of this school is its strong music program from fifth through eighth grade. Ninth graders can choose to take music rather than a third foreign language. Depending on the students’ ability and interest, each class schedule may look considerably different. The following is a possible class schedule for a tenth grade student: MEIN STUNDENPLAN ZEIT MONTAG DIENSTAG MITTWOCH DONNERSTAG FREITAG 7.45–8.30 Englisch Sport Gemeinschaftskunde Biologie Mathematik 8.35–9.20 Mathematik Sport Religion Griechisch Englisch 9.20–9.35 Große Pause Große Pause Große Pause Große Pause Große Pause 9.35–10.20 Griechisch Geschichte Griechisch Mathematik Gemeinschaftskunde 10.25–11.10 Chemie Mathematik Englisch Englisch Geschichte 11.10–11.20 Pause Pause Pause Pause Pause 11.20-12.05 Physik Latein Latein Deutsch Religion 12.10–12.55 Deutsch Deutsch Chor Chemie Latein 14.20–15.05 Biologie Kunst 15.10–15.55 Griechisch Musik 98 Explain what these subjects in this student’s class schedule mean: Gemeinschaftskunde social studies; Kunst art. <strong>Kapitel</strong> 4
