ALEA SCHOOL

Location

the clever heart of Europe

In the heart of Europe: Bad Orb and the ALEA SCHOOL offer easy accessibility thanks to their central location, combined with secluded, unspoiled nature. The Rhein-Main metropolitan region in particular has attractive opportunities for infrastructure development in an easterly direction. Bad Orb is the western gateway to the Spessart.

There is a strong historical connection between the Main metropolis of Frankfurt and the spa town: the founding fathers of the Orber spa garden were Frankfurters, including Heinrich Siesmayer, who also designed the iconic Frankfurt Palm Hall. In addition, the Frankfurt hunting lords valued the Spessart Forest with its ancient beech and oak trees and had a decisive influence on Bad Orb. ALEA is reviving this connection: as a strategic partner of Eintracht Frankfurt, Bad Orb is becoming an important branch for Frankfurt's source of identification. ALEA SCHOOL cooperates closely with the Palm Hall and Senckenberg.

Learning in the countryside: ALEA SCHOOL is located in the heart of the Spessart Forest – and right next to ALEA PARK. Botany is, so to speak, the trellis on which the curriculum and the student body grow towards the sun. The flora and fauna of the Woodpecker Forest surround the school both sensually and spiritually.

Scholarship framework conditions

In principle, anyone can apply for a scholarship. The award committee will take various criteria into account when selecting the scholarship holders: First and foremost, the economic eligibility of an applicant family. This is based on the average household income (approx. €70,000) in the Main-Kinzig district and the applicant confirms that they have a lower household income. Voluntary commitment, special achievements or a particularly convincing application are also taken into account.

When applying for a scholarship, applicants must provide basic information, a letter of motivation and a letter of recommendation from a (class) teacher. After submission, the awarding committee will review the application and contact the applicants regarding the next steps.

At the present moment, two scholarship programs have already been confirmed.

  1. The Norbert Strauss partial scholarship
    5x per year
    Covers €400 of the school fees
  2. The Bad Orb full scholarship
    2x per year
    Covers the entire school fees

Further scholarship programs are currently being developed.

There will be both full and partial scholarships. Depending on the type of scholarship, either all or part of the school fees will be covered by the scholarship. Both scholarship models cover tuition fees up to the 10th grade to the extent indicated.
