context_page_description: Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe-Gymnasium Chemnitz is a public secondary school in Chemnitz, Saxony, Germany, for grades 5–12. It is one of seven secondary schools operating in Chemnitz.
  Its name changed in the past multiple times, and the school is now named after the famous German poet and natural scientist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
  Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe-Gymnasium has an annual average enrollment of about 700 students and 46 teachers. It offers a variety of 22 extracurricular activities. The principal of the school is Steffen Morgner and the assistant principal is Veronika Pißler.
  The school building was established in 1910 after only one year of construction work to educate the increasing number of students due to the emerging population of Chemnitz-Bernsdorf. Throughout the years, the school faced several changes to its school system. In the early years, the school separated boys and girls and served as a common board school to teach children for eight years. The school went coed in 1949, still distinguishing in Bernsdorf School I and II, and added grades 9 and 10 in 1959.
