the third batch of shandong province's warm rural campuses, shandong province's green campus, shandong province's star-rated libraries for primary and secondary schools, shandong province's star-rated canteens for primary and secondary schools, shandong province's pilot school for the introduction of chinese medicine culture into campuses, shandong province's advanced collective for campus safety work, and the national advanced collective in the education system... the fact that this township middle school in xintai has won so many provincial honors and has been named an advanced collective in the national education system is both amazing and thought-provoking.
a few years ago, xintai gongli town junior high school was a little-known rural middle school with poor teaching quality. when parents of nearby students mentioned this school, they all shook their heads silently. no one was willing to send their children to this "poor school". changes began in 2020. under the leadership of yin yanxin, the party branch secretary and principal of the school, this middle school actively explored and innovated. through unremitting efforts and continuous reforms, it successfully embarked on a unique "teaching + brand" characteristic road, achieved a leap from "backward" to "advanced", and blazed a path for the revitalization of rural education.
in the campus of gongli town junior high school, the red geography park behind the teaching building is particularly eye-catching. this geography park reproduces the route of the long march, and uses taishan stone to mark important landmarks of the long march. an xianglun, a sixth-grade history teacher, said: "by reproducing the long march route map, students can experience the red culture in person, while deepening their knowledge of related history, politics, geography and other subjects, achieving multiple goals at one stroke. many classes also carry out colorful activities such as recitation, lectures, and first lessons here."
the first lesson activity mentioned by an xianglun is a vivid practice of the first lesson ideological and political responsibility system implemented by gongli town junior high school. the first lesson responsibility system is an ideological and political education initiative innovatively launched by tai'an city. it aims to provide ideological and political education to students 5 minutes before the first class of each day, so as to strengthen students' moral education and ideological guidance. the school has carried out the activity of party members taking the lead in giving the first lesson, carefully created school-based courses such as "stories of the holy spirit", "gratitude education", and "traveling with the twenty-four solar terms", and established a rich first lesson resource library. through the short and concise "first lesson" content, ideological and political education is organically combined with subject teaching, effectively improving the quality of ideological and political education and the comprehensive quality of students.
gongli town junior high school also pays special attention to the connection education between "high school, junior high school and primary school". for the connection between junior high school and primary school, in accordance with the idea of "connecting top and bottom, integrating connotation", inter-school collaboration among 8 primary schools and 1 middle school in the region is carried out, and teachers are organized to carry out interdisciplinary teaching research, and students are organized to visit campus and experience activities to strengthen exchanges and collaboration. for the connection between junior high school and high school, a coherent curriculum framework has been developed to provide students with advance knowledge reserves. under the good ecology of steady and rapid development of the school, a large number of provincial and municipal teaching masters have emerged in the school. there are currently 58 provincial, municipal and county backbone teachers, which provides a solid talent guarantee for the high-quality development of the school.
"i, as a parent, feel relieved that my child is studying here. the campus environment and learning atmosphere are good, and there are many special courses offered. my child's academic performance has improved, and he is very happy to learn." wang wenjuan, the parent of a graduating student, said sincerely.
every wednesday afternoon is the favorite chinese medicine culture course of seventh grade student he huanfei. she said: "i like chinese medicine culture very much. it is great that the school has opened this course. i can learn a lot of relevant knowledge and go to the chinese medicine herb garden to learn about various medicinal herbs. during each solar term, the teacher will also guide us to make some handmade works such as medicine bags and sachets, which is very meaningful."
building a distinctive campus culture system is the key to achieving sustainable and high-quality development of schools. gongli town junior high school has not only achieved the "fast track" development of compulsory courses, but also promoted the innovation and characteristic development of elective courses. in recent years, the school has attached great importance to labor education, focusing on building a high-quality "six-in-one" system of labor education, relying on the local "hesheng culture", establishing the "virtue and harmony, integration of knowledge and action" school-running philosophy, carefully planning and opening 14 special courses such as labor education, traditional chinese medicine culture, flower pressing, 3d printing, etc., and developed a brand development path with "five educations" as the core characteristics.
"this year, there are two more first-year junior high school classes than last year. in recent years, parents from many other towns and villages in the surrounding areas are willing to send their children to our school, which is a great recognition of our teaching quality." speaking of the changes in the school in recent years, yin yanxin, secretary of the party branch and principal of xintai city gongli town junior high school, said happily.
the gorgeous transformation of gongli town junior high school is a microcosm of the revitalization of rural education. it has proved with practical actions that as long as we are brave enough to innovate and reform, even rural schools with relatively backward conditions can embark on a path of high-quality development and become a shining pearl of rural education.
