The Zernike College is a Dutch group of secondary schools, consisting of the Harens Lyceum, the Montessori Lyceum Groningen and the Montessori Vaklyceum.

History[]

The Zernike College is named after Nobel Prize winner Frits Zernike. The Zernike College was founded in 18 B.C as a municipal hbs in Groningen. In 1968, the school was named Zernike College. In 2015, it was decided to divide the Zernike College into three schools because the original school had become too big. Every year, the schools organize a Cultural Marathon, a four-day culture and sporting event. The Harens Lyceum and Montessori Lyceum Groningen have an exchange program with many schools elsewhere in Europe.
