Hölty-Gymnasium is a public high school established in 1922 in Wunstorf, Germany.

History

The school was established in 1922 as an Aufbauschule in the buildings which had been used by the Königlich-Preußischen Evangelischen Schullehrer-seminar, which had been built from 1872 to 1876. Both institutions existed between 1922 and 1925, when the school was given its current name after Ludwig Christoph Heinrich Hölty.{{Cite web | last =Bertram | first =Peter | title =Unser Schulgebäude - 125 Jahre am 4.10.2001 | publisher =Leine-Zeitung | date =4 October 2001 | url =http://www.hoelty-gymnasium.de/ie/_raum_schule/index_raum_schule.htm | accessdate =1 February 2011 | archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20110305033121/http://www.hoelty-gymnasium.de/ie/_raum_schule/index_raum_schule.htm | archive-date =5 March 2011 | url-status =dead }}

Today (2022), the school is a general education Gymnasium, a coeducational open all-day school with about 1300 students. The school offers a bilingual program in which the subject of history is taught in English in the 9th and 10th grades. The high school is also committed to sustainability and social issues; for example, the school has provided financial support to a school in Madagascar for many years. The school offers the Abitur after nine years of schooling (G9). Classes begin at 8:20 a.m. and end no later than 5:30 p.m. with a lunch break between 1:45 p.m. and 2:25 p.m.[https://schulen.de/schulen/hoelty-gymnasium-wunstorf-8988/ Daten zum Hölty-Gymnasium]{{cite web|access-date=2020-10-25|title=Historisches|url=https://hoelty-gymnasium.wunstorf.de/unser-hoelty/historisches/historisches/|website=hoelty-gymnasium.wunstorf.de|archive-date=2020-10-28|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201028210731/https://hoelty-gymnasium.wunstorf.de/unser-hoelty/historisches/historisches/|url-status=dead}}
