Loyola Gymnasium Prizren, Kosovo, was opened by German Jesuits in 2005, in the wake of the civil wars in the area. It is a boarding school and accepts equal numbers of girls and boys, from grade 6 through gymnasium. Most students have some command of English, and it along with German and Latin are taught.[1]

History

More than half the population of Kosovo is younger than 25 years old. Loyola Gymnasium accepts girls and boys of all ethnicities and faiths. Kosovan parents in the fall of 2002 approached Renovabis (Action of solidarity of German Church with the people in Central and Eastern Europe) seeking help for the establishment of a school in Kosovo, the Jesuit who visited recommended a boarding gymnasium, serving an equal number of girls and boys from Kosovo and the neighboring countries.

In the fall of 2003 mostly with funds from Renovabis the German Province of the Society of Jesus began construction. Prizren lies in "German sector" and can be reached quickly from Macedonia and Albania.[2]

In September of 2005 classes began for 184 children. Sports fields would include three fields with a layer of rubber granulate.

Program

German is studied as a foreign language in preparation for the "German language Diploma of the Ministerial Conference of Education and Culture of Germany" (DSD).[3] This language degree, given in two levels, encourages foreign students to study in German-speaking countries. Latin is studied to the point of understanding "Caesar's Gallic Wars", since around 20 percent of the Albanian vocabulary has Latin roots. It is studied from classes VI through X for four or five hours a week. Most students come with a basic knowledge of English.[4]

Fees cover about two thirds of operational costs. Scholarships are available where there is proven need and promise in the student.

The school's newsletter is available online.[5]

Internships have been made available for graduates, especially for teaching and for continuing studies in Germany.[6][7]
