Abitur Ball 2021
On Friday, June 11, 2021 the traditional Abitur-Ball gala took place at the Residence of the Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany, Dr. Emily Haber, who graciously invited our graduating class to hold their celebration in this festive setting. Dr. Haber congratulated the students in person on their successful graduation. Although our Class of 2021 was forced to prepare for their Abitur examinations mainly in distance learning mode, they managed to achieve outstanding results. Consequently, spirits were high as the tension of many months of hard work could finally be left behind. Mr. Löckmann and some of their teachers were present as well to raise their glasses and congratulate the young adults on their successful graduation.
