In the early 1970s, the Are-Gymnasium initiated school partnerships and exchange programs with institutions in France and England, expanding in the mid-1980s to include a partnership with a school in Chicago. The school transitioned to a full-time institution in 1974, accommodating students from grades 5 through 13. In 1989, legal action by students and parents successfully prevented the school's closure, with a decision in their favor by the administrative court.[4][5]
In 2008, the Are-Gymnasium was among the first G8 all-day high schools in Rhineland-Palatinate. In 2018, it was officially recognized as a European School,[6] and in 2019, it also gained certification as a Fairtrade School.[7] On July 14, 2021, the school was significantly impacted by the flooding of the Ahr River.[8] Since January 4, 2022, the Are-Gymnasium has been operating out of a container school in Ringen. Prior to this, they had been using the facilities of the IGS in Remagen.[9][10]
On August 1, 2022, Nina Pfeil became the first woman to assume the position of principal.[1]
106 teachers have been or are currently employed at the Are-Gymnasium.[2]
