In 1954, the Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium opened its doors. It started as a boys’ school focused on languages. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium was initially known as EMA II, a nod to its parent school, the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium quickly evolved. By 1970, it began accepting girls with the introduction of a bilingual German-French program. By 1976, it was fully co-educational. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium continued to grow. In 1993, it merged with the Elly-Heuss-Knapp-Gymnasium, further expanding its reach and impact. Today, the Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium boasts roughly 1,200 students and 100 teachers. It’s not just about quantity, but quality. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium stands out for its unique international profile. It offers not only the German Abitur but also the French Baccalauréat, the International Baccalaureate, and the CertiLingua. This makes it the only gymnasium in Germany with such a wide range of international qualifications. Students at the Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium delve into a world of languages. They all learn at least three. English and French are mandatory from the start, with a choice between Latin and Spanish later on. Beyond languages, the Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium has a robust focus on STEM subjects and a vibrant arts program. This includes choirs, orchestras, theater productions, and regular cultural events. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium also has a long-standing tradition with its school country home on the Aremberg. This tradition dates back to 1932, offering students a unique retreat. The school’s Schülerruderclub (SRC), founded in 1956, focuses on both physical fitness and personal development. The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium believes in collaboration. It has partnerships with organizations like Deutsche Telekom and Deutsche Post DHL, providing valuable opportunities for students. The school is a launchpad for successful individuals. Alumni include athletes, politicians, artists, and entrepreneurs, highlighting the school’s impact on diverse fields.
