Staatliches Gymnasium Holzkirchen, Secondary school in Holzkirchen, Germany.
Staatliches Gymnasium Holzkirchen is a secondary school building with specialized programs in natural sciences, technology, and economic studies. The facility offers students focused learning areas supported by modern teaching methods such as double-period lessons and announced assessments.
The Staatliches Gymnasium Holzkirchen opened in the 2014/15 school year as the third Gymnasium in the Miesbach district, with Axel Kisters as founding director. Its building was completed in September 2014 after about eighteen months of construction under a public-private partnership. In 2017/18 it won the i.s.i. 2018 prize for internal school development. Since 2015 it has partnered with United World Schools and Con Cultures to build schools in Nepal.
The school offers students the chance to learn English as their first foreign language, with the option to choose French or Latin later in their studies. This multilingual approach shapes daily learning and prepares students for international demands.
The campus was built between June 2013 and September 2014 under a public-private partnership and also houses the FOS Holzkirchen. Lessons run in double periods, so the corridors empty between blocks. As a working school, the building is not open to visitors during class hours; the address sits at 47.88856, 11.70498 in Holzkirchen.
In 2017/18 the school won the i.s.i. 2018 prize (Innere Schulentwicklung & Schulqualität Innovationspreis). The jury cited the grading concept, with its announced or voluntary assessments, and the pupil-activating, competence-oriented teaching methods, and praised the systematic quality management process.
