Lintong County Huaqing Middle School
Lintong Huaqing Middle School is one of the first batch of key middle schools in Shaanxi Province, and it is also a full-time complete middle school in Shaanxi Province. She is located at the foot of Lishan Mountain, next to Huaqing Pond. Founded in the 28th year of the Republic of China (1939), the school site was first in the city, that is, the location of the county court, and then because of its narrowness, the new site was surveyed and rebuilt, and the 31st year of the Republic of China (1942) moved to the east gate of the county under the Dongxiu Ridge, which is the current school site. In the spring of the 29th year of the Republic of China (1940), the school enrolled 100 junior high school students in two classes at the old site in the city, with 5 teaching staff, the school site was only 6 acres, and the teaching equipment was extremely simple. Until the eve of the liberation of Lintong County in 1949, although the scale of the school has developed, there are only 12 classes, 550 students, 36 teaching staff, the school site area of 106 acres, the school building area of 1924 square meters, more than 3500 books, more than 100 teaching instruments. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, under the leadership of the party and the government, the school has developed rapidly. In 1989, there were 33 classes with 2,100 students (including 315 Tibetan students). There are 217 teaching staff, including 12 senior teachers and 46 first-level teachers. The school covers an area of 86,667 square meters, with a construction area of 18,000 square meters. The library building (also known as Yuntai Building) has a collection of 103,000 books, and the laboratory building (also known as Xuanji Building) has a chemical laboratory and instrument room of 210 square meters, 186 pieces of equipment, and complete medicines; 212 square meters of physics laboratory and instrument room, more than 2,500 instruments (sets); The biological laboratory is 106 square meters and has 152 specimens; 13 electronic computers, 1 video player; Microcomputer room 42 square meters; The electric classroom is 84 square meters.
From its establishment to 1985, Huaqing Middle School has changed its name eight times, and its order is: Lintong County Lishan Middle School, Lintong County Zhongzheng Middle School, Lintong County Junior High School, Lintong County No. 1 Junior High School, Zhongzheng Middle School, Shaanxi Huaqing Middle School, Anti-Japanese War School, Huaqing Middle School. Despite the changes in the name of the school, its purpose of nurturing talents for the revitalization of China has never changed.
Huaqing Middle School is a school with a glorious history and revolutionary traditions. She was founded just after the Xi'an Incident. At that time, the people of Lintong County were inspired by the patriotic actions of patriotic generals Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng and the revolutionary activities of the CCP's underground organizations, and anti-Chiang sentiment was generally high, and their revolutionary enthusiasm was increasing day by day. This struggle against the dark rule of the Kuomintang against communism and the people was also reflected in the process of establishing Huaqing Middle School. The school was originally funded by local people who are enthusiastic about education in Lintong County. In the spring of the 29th year of the Republic of China (1940), Wang Mu, the enemy and puppet county magistrate, requested that the name of the school be changed to Lintong County Zhongzheng Middle School in order to "commemorate the commission" and show his loyalty. On October 11 of that year, the puppet Ministry of Education allocated 1,000 yuan to the school and presented a set of biological instruments as a sign of funding. In July of that year, on charges of "infiltrating the party", he arrested student Lu Zongzhou (a member of the People's Pioneers and an underground member of the Communist Party of China) and sent him to the Xi'an labor camp for "probation". After the Lu Zongzhou incident, in order to strengthen the fascist rule of Huaqing Middle School, the Kuomintang reactionary authorities ordered the puppet provincial education department to dismiss the former principal Liu Mingzhai from his post on January 8 of the following year, and instructed Wang Jialin, the new county magistrate, to be the principal and "earnestly rectify" the school. Wong Ka-lun took over as president on January 16 and was appointed to the acting role of the director of academic affairs, Cheng Ting-cheung. At that time, the struggle between revolution and counter-revolution revolved around these two events. In February, Li Hucheng, director of the preparatory committee for the establishment of the school, and Zhao Dengyun, director of the general affairs unit, reported to the school that Lintong Zhongzheng Middle School had requested to be renamed as a private Lintong Zhongzheng Middle School, and that Li Kunshan, who had graduated from Peking University, had been hired as the principal. Less than 10 days after this submission, it was approved by Jiang Dingwen, the puppet provincial chairman: it is not allowed to change "county" to "private", and Wang Jialin is still the principal and responsible for rectification. Since then, the "driving king" student tide has been brewing in the school. On 30 June, the student representatives put forward a five-point demand for democracy and freedom and opposition to authoritarian dictatorship to Cheng Tingzhang, the acting school administrator. The strike lasted for more than a month, forcing Wang Jialin to resign on 9 August and appoint Zhou Keren as the principal. After Zhou took office, in April of the 31st year of the Republic of China (1942), the school was renamed Lintong County Junior High School, and the struggle was over. Soon after Zhou Keren took office, in August of the same year, the progressive Chong Zhaoxu took over as president. Since then, Huaqing Middle School has become an important stronghold of the CCP's underground activities.
In February of the 32nd year of the Republic of China (1943), underground party members Zhang Yiping and Sun Xunshan entered the school to teach under the cover of Principal Chong Zhaoxu. Zhang Yipingming is the director of discipline and education of the school, but in fact he is the special liaison officer of Guanzhong designated by the provincial party committee, responsible for the underground organization of the school; Sun Xunshan succeeded Chong Zhaoxu as principal from the autumn of the 34th to the 37th summer of the Republic of China (1945-1948). Therefore, in the past five years, the leadership of Huaqing Middle School has been in the hands of underground CCP members and progressives sympathetic to the revolution. During this period, the revolutionary forces among the faculty and staff also accounted for a considerable proportion, and there were eight underground party members, including Du Songshou (researcher of the Chinese Character Reform Committee), Zhang Zhiping, Zhao Chungu (editor of the supplement of Guangming Daily), Yao Yizheng, Yin Xingsan, Ding Shouguang, Yu Haibo, and Pan Wenbo. At that time, the struggle between the enemy and the enemy was extremely fierce, and Huaqing Middle School had actually become the contact point and transfer station for the CCP's underground activities. Its main task is to disseminate revolutionary ideas and protect revolutionary comrades. During his tenure as principal, Sun Xunshan protected underground party members and progressives from enemy arrest. Three revolutionary comrades, including Chen Shaomin (former member of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of the Ministry of Textile Industry after the founding of New China), Qiu Hong (political commissar of a certain regiment of the People's Liberation Army), and Zhao Shiying (Li Xiannian's personal soldier), were safely transferred and rescued from danger. At that time, there were underground CCP members as the backbone from the leaders to the teachers, and under their open or secret dissemination of revolutionary ideas and correct guidance, the vast majority of the students established the conviction of studying for the rejuvenation of China. In the winter of 1948, on the eve of the liberation of Lintong County, more than 10 students from the high school went north to the border area to participate in revolutionary work; After the liberation of Lintong County in May 1949, about 90% of the students at the 50th and 51st levels of the high school immediately embarked on the revolutionary road and became grassroots cadres under the direct leadership of the Communist Party of China.
Huaqing Middle School not only has a glorious history and revolutionary traditions, but is also able to pay close attention to the improvement of the quality of education.
After the liberation of Lintong County in May 1949, the party and the government took over the school. From 1950 to 1956, the school, like other industries, also went through a period of transformation, development and improvement. First of all, the enrollment system of old China for the imperialist and landlord-comprador classes was changed, and the schools were opened to the children of workers and peasants; An ideological transformation campaign was carried out among the teaching staff to make it clear the direction in which it was necessary to integrate with the workers and peasants. The school building and scale have been greatly expanded and developed. In accordance with the spirit of the party's instruction that "teaching work is the overriding central work of the school", we have always adhered to the teaching work as the center and strengthened teaching and research. During this period, due to the attention of the leaders and the efforts of teachers and students, the quality of education in Huaqing Middle School has been improved to a certain extent, which has laid the foundation for further improvement in the future.
From 1958 to 1965, in order to reverse the tendency of education to be divorced from politics, production, and reality in the early days of the founding of New China, to resolutely implement the party's education policy, and to train students to become educated workers with socialist consciousness and all-round moral, intellectual, and physical development, the school vigorously grasped the educational revolution and teaching reform from 1958 to 1965. From 1958 to 1959, he carried out the ideological struggle of "prospering without destroying capital" in the field of education, and built school-run factories and farms through three-diligence and work-study. From 1960 to 1961, Chairman Mao Zedong's "Two Theories" ("Theory of Practice" and "Theory of Contradiction") were used to guide teaching. The school has put forward the goal of "rapidly raising the quality of school education to the advanced level of the whole city, the whole province, and even the whole country," and has greatly improved the quality of education by combining classroom teaching with production and labor, and by integrating the theory learned with practice. In 1960, the school's fresh high school graduates participated in the Xi'an unified test, and their scores jumped to the first place in the city, and the college entrance examination rate reached 98% of the graduates. From 1962 to 1965, he continued to adhere to the educational reform, and began to establish a normal teaching order, summed up practical teaching principles and methods, did everything possible to inspire students' thinking to the greatest extent, and solved every problem in a down-to-earth and pinpoint manner. The quality of education has steadily improved, and in 1963, it was identified as one of the 10 key middle schools in Shaanxi Province.
During the 10-year "Cultural Revolution", Huaqing Middle School was criticized as a "black model" of the revisionist education line, teachers were persecuted, teaching order was destroyed, and the quality of education declined significantly. After smashing the Jiang Qing counterrevolutionary clique, she was once again identified as one of the first batch of key middle schools to be run well in Shaanxi Province. At this time, the school immediately put things in order, revived its spirit, and vigorously grasped the improvement of the quality of education. First of all, the examination system was restored, a normal teaching order was established, the policy on intellectuals was implemented, and unjust, false and wrongly decided cases among the teaching staff were rehabilitated. After the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the school resolutely implemented the spirit of the plenary session, paid close attention to the construction of spiritual civilization, and carried out spiritual civilization construction activities centered on "learning from Lei Feng", "creating three good" and "establishing a new style" among students, which promoted the all-round development of students and improved the quality of education. For example, Huang Weidong, who graduated from high school in the 80th grade, was admitted to Peking University and later went to Canada for further study; Luo Hanying's college entrance examination score ranked first in Weinan in the eighth grade of high school; Huangpu River, the 84th grade of high school, ranked fourth in the province with a score of 606 in the college entrance examination. In 1983, in the National Mathematics Competition for Middle School Students, the school's group ranked first in Xi'an and third in Shaanxi Province, and won the "Outstanding Collective" award. In 1986, Xue Binghua, a senior high school student of the school, won the first place in the Shaanxi Division in the National Mathematics Competition; In the same year, in the National Essay Competition for Middle School Students, Zhang Xinrui, who is in high school 87, won the second prize; In 1987, in the national synchronous essay competition for middle school students in seven cities, the senior high school 87 answer Hongwei won the first prize; In 1988, Ding Min, a senior high school student of the eighth and ninth grades, won the third prize in the preliminaries of the 5th National Physics Competition for Middle School Students; Huang Zhongzu, a high school student of grade 8 and 9, won the National Mathematics League Winning Award; In 1989, Zhang Huaqun, a senior 90 student, won the second place in the National Chemistry Competition for Middle School Students.
Huaqing Middle School, before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, cultivated batches of revolutionaries, builders and defenders for the country. There are a total of 11,500 high school graduates (including those who graduated from the 50th and 5th classes), of which 3,700 have gone on to higher education institutions for further study, and the rest have directly participated in industrial and agricultural production or other work after graduation. Many of these students have made major contributions to the party and the state, and they are still fighting on all fronts and shouldering the heavy task of building a modern socialist motherland. For example, An Qiyuan, who is the secretary of the party group and director of the National Earthquake Administration, is responsible for leading the work; Shen Zhijun and Liu Mingyuan, senior 50, are professors at Dalian Institute of Technology and Northwestern Polytechnical University respectively, engaged in teaching; Li Xuechao, a senior 50-year-old student who studied in the Soviet Union, is currently a senior engineer at Hongqi Machinery Factory, engaged in scientific research; Li Yaohui, who is currently the chief physician of Lanzhou Railway Central Hospital, is engaged in medical work; Yang Yukun, a 60-year-old senior student, is now a reporter for Shaanxi Daily, engaged in journalism. In addition, Cheng Xuehua, the fourth and ninth grade of the junior high school, participated in the archaeological drilling work of the Qin Warriors Museum and discovered the world-famous precious cultural relics of copper chariots and horses. What is even more unforgettable is Yang Anji, who was admitted to Xi'an Institute of Foreign Languages after graduation, and died honorably in the flood relief in the southern suburbs of Xi'an in the summer of 1956, becoming a martyr who is deeply mourned and admired by people today.
Huaqing Middle School, because it was able to fully implement the party's education policy and continuously improve the quality of education, the party and the government gave her great trust and high honor. In 1960, the school attended the National Cultural and Educational Heroes Conference, and Premier Zhou Enlai personally awarded the honorary title of "Advanced Unit"; In 1980, the integrated circuit metal tube shell produced by the school-run factory of the university was used on the first carrier rocket launched from the mainland to the Pacific Ocean, and was commended by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of Aerospace. In 1983, the school was rated as an advanced collective of "Five Stresses and Four Beauties as a Teacher" in the national cultural and educational system, and was commended and commended by the Ministry of Education and the All-China Education Federation of Trade Unions. In the same year, the student union of the school was elected as a member of the All-China Federation of Students; In August 1985, the Nara Prefecture Education Delegation of Japan visited the school, and at the same time, the Provincial Department of Education and the National Education Commission determined that Huaqing Middle School was one of the 16 middle schools in the mainland to hold Tibetan classes, and since 1985, 100 Tibetan students have been recruited every year for four years. In 1989, a Seychelles education delegation visited the school.
