Northern Shaanxi folk songs are a representative cultural business card of northern Shaanxi local culture, and an intangible cultural heritage left to us by our ancestors, and it is of far-reaching significance for northern Shaanxi folk songs to enter the campus. In particular, Chairman Mao Zedong led the Red Army in northern Shaanxi and Yan'an to form many red folk songs in northern Shaanxi, which not only have beautiful tunes and noble words, but also imply innocent red stories, which are more guided, educational, shaping and motivating to students. We call on school leaders and all walks of life to attach importance to the inheritance of excellent northern Shaanxi folk songs, while imparting scientific and cultural knowledge to students, infiltrate northern Shaanxi culture into the classroom, guide students to establish correct values, and constantly stimulate and enhance students' feelings of loving the motherland, the party and their hometown.
