Colegio Alemán Alexander von Humboldt (Mexico City)

January 01, 1970

Colegio Alemán Alexander von Humboldt, A. C. (German: Deutsche Schule Mexiko-Stadt) is a network of German-language primary and secondary schools based in Greater Mexico City.

There are three campuses under a single school board, with each campus acting autonomously.[1] As of 2010, the institution together is the largest German school outside of Germany.[2]

History edit

 
Students at the school, 1903

The school was established in 1894,[3] situated on Canoa Street in Mexico City. By 1900, the number of students was approaching 300,[citation needed] including students from outside the German community.[citation needed]

The school included German, Mexican, and other teachers and was modeled after other German schools abroad. There were multiple divisions, and Division A had facilities tailored for female students.[4]

In 1940, a campus in Tacubaya was opened, and by 1968 the Civil Association "Alexander von Humboldt" is created,[clarification needed] named after the German naturalist and explorer. The institution had incorporated itself into the Mexican Educational System,[when?] so students could obtain either Mexican or German certificates. By 1970, two additional campuses were opened and over 1000 students attended the school.

The association currently has 3 main campuses, and additionally a Kindergarten, and an Elementary School. The unaffiliated Club Alemán de México is used as a cultural and athletic facility by the German community.

In 2014 there was controversy over bullying in the Lomas Verdes campus.[5][6]

Language of classes edit

Most subjects are taught in German, and children are required to be bi-lingual, unless they are starting Kindergarten.
