About the School

Abendroth
Arthur Abendroth was a sly man born to one of the best known,German thick and through, pure blood families of the time. He grew up with the family beliefs, not influenced by other opinions during his school days he became a huge bully, noticeably picking the Muggle borns as his predominant target. When he began the school he valued purity and cunning. Bullies, Pure Bloods and future Dark Wizards or Witches can be found within this house.

Friedmann
Gilbert Friedmann had an average life, being kind to everyone and often going out of his way to do so. He got labelled for 'sucking up' to Professors, but it was only in his nature to be nice to everyone whatever the cost. So when he started his house, he thought of all the people who wouldn't fit into a category. He decided to create a house that would take anyone, to express his kind nature and so that nobody would be rejected for not belonging.

Reinbrandt
Rochelle Reinbrandt was noble and strong. Always looked down at by her male peers as she grew, even though she was stronger than many of them. So when she came into the school, she created a house for the noble and chivalrous, those who would perform those acts of bravery to stand up for a peer, friend, or for themselves. The Reinbrandt are defensive, and sporty, and many an Auror or Quidditch player was previously of this house. This house also produces many the trouble maker due to their reckless nature.

Schrieber
Seraphina Schrieber had a superior IQ score and everyone knew it. They asked her for help and advice a lot, and sometimes she wished more people valued gaining knowledge, like she did. Knowledge was a gift, and wise use is a right -> She wished more people realised that so she could converse with them. So, her house valued intelligence and knowledge above all else.

Students' Backgrounds
The Institute has a policy of a maximum of three internationals per user. An international qualifies as somebody from a country where German is not an official language. The Institute has a mainly German population but knows that there are students who may want to attend not from Germany and acknowledges this, but wishes to at least in the most part uphold the German traditions of the founders.
