The Reincarnated Immortal Emperor: Supporting Education in Remote Mountainous Areas Chapter 85 A stepping stone, it can be difficult to use, but it can't be without.
Chapter 85 A stepping stone, it can be difficult to use, but it can't be without.
The dusty Shangwa Primary School is extremely lively.
At the school gate, there are parents sending their children to school, and one or two teachers are already there to receive them.
In the teacher's office, under the hanging TV, there were the excited smiling faces of Lao Fan and other teachers. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the special report on the TV.
"Old principal! Look, it's the old principal!"
"And Teacher Su, Teacher Su, you are also on TV."
"Teacher Zhao, hahaha, look at the confused look on the teacher's face."
Watching the TV reports about Shangwa Primary School, including interviews with rural teachers and reports on their deeds, Lao Fan, Su Mei and others couldn't control their emotions.
Everyone really never thought that one day he would be on TV.
Moreover, he was regarded as a model by the county, and a column was dedicated to praise him during the news period.
It was worth it. Seeing this, these rural teachers felt that it was worth it to stay in Shangwa for more than ten or twenty years.
And not only that, some students were also interviewed in the column.
Some of these students are primary school students who are going to school in Shangwa, and some are past graduates who have already attended middle school.
There are even students who are already working or going to college outside the country.
Seeing this, some of the teachers had wet eyes.
Especially Su Mei and other emotionally sensitive teachers.
"I am very grateful to Teacher Su Mei. My family conditions were not very good at that time. My father wanted me to drop out of school and go out to work. It was Teacher Su Mei who found my home. I still remember what Teacher Su said. She said, 'Money is my
If you want to go out, at least let your children go to junior high school. If you drop out of school at such a young age, your children will be ruined for the rest of their lives.'"
"Without Teacher Su Mei, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"Then do you have anything to say to Teacher Su Mei?"
"Teacher Su Mei, thank you! You will always be the most beautiful teacher in my heart. I will remember everything you taught me, and I will work hard to take care of myself and become a useful person to the country and society."
In the picture, the speaker is a female college student who has received an offer from a large company.
Seeing all this, Teacher Su Mei burst into tears.
"Don't cry, Teacher Su." Seeing Su Mei cry, other teachers rushed to comfort her.
In fact, for Su Mei and others, twenty years have passed, but many students can't remember it clearly.
However, they know that for these students, it is their childhood and youth.
And these teachers themselves are part of the imprint in their lives.
Similarly, the old principal Fan Deyi also had red eyes.
After all, he has stayed in Shangwa much longer than Su Mei.
In the video of the news column, he saw many children he had taken care of, many whom he had not seen for a long time and whose faces he could not even remember clearly.
There are also many children who I have helped.
After all, in the early years, it was not uncommon for students to drop out of primary school.
Now, in the column video, the children I once taught have grown up and are in all walks of life in society.
At the end of the video, there is a combined video of hundreds of greetings.
The avatars are gathered together to form a complete picture.
Smiling faces, smiling together, warmly, full of confidence and responsibility, wishing the alma mater Shangwa Primary School expansion, may the world be filled with peaches and plums, and wish the teachers good health and all the best.
However, although Lao Fan was happy and wiped away tears, he actually felt uncomfortable.
Because he knows that these children in the picture all have relatively successful careers.
It is probably because the TV station specially selected some of the more successful students of more than 20 years to appear on TV for publicity purposes.
In fact, most of the children who go out from Shangwa Primary School are not so glamorous.
Not to mention a primary school, it is a junior high school or a non-key high school. Not all students after graduation can get along well.
Not to mention the children in Shangwa Primary School, a primary school in a poor mountainous area.
For example, Lao Fan personally saw poor students in towns and counties.
Some live on the streets, while others still farm and cannot make ends meet, making life very difficult and embarrassing.
There were several times when a relatively downtrodden student took the initiative to say hello. The awkward smile on his face will never be forgotten in his life.
And, sometimes, I can't remember their names because too much time has passed.
The scene was very embarrassing, and these students might even think too much.
"Alas~" Seeing this, Lao Fan was filled with emotion.
He really hopes that every child will become a talented person.
Even if you can't have a successful career and become famous as everyone imagines, you can at least support yourself.
Be able to live happily, with dignity, and take care of yourself.
"What's wrong, old principal?" Teacher Zhao Bingqiang asked as Lao Fan sighed, and something wasn't right.
"It's okay. I met a student when I went to town yesterday. He failed to pass the high school entrance examination and couldn't live without her at home. Then he farmed at home for two years and wandered the streets for two years." Lao Fan replied.
"Walking around the streets for two years? Farming?" the teachers asked in surprise.
"Alas." Lao Fan sighed, acquiescing.
"Isn't that useless?" Other teachers also became worried.
"Who says it's not the case? After seeing me, this student hid at a distance for fear that I would recognize him." Thinking of that scene, Lao Fan felt sad.
"This child's grades are actually pretty good. He is only 20 points away from being admitted to a key high school, but his family can't afford the money for the difference, and the child doesn't want to waste time going to a general high school or a vocational school. So."
Lao Fan said.
In addition to the three key high schools in Jinzhao County, the other high schools are basically just for fun.
These non-key high schools can’t even get a few undergraduate exams in one year.
"This student still has self-esteem." After arranging the morning classes for the primary school students to practice cultivation, Zhang Beichen also walked in.
"Yes." Other teachers also sighed.
Another teacher also shook his head: "It's a pity that we are just a primary school, and we are just a group of ordinary primary school teachers. We can't control their junior high school and beyond."
"Well, it's a primary school after all. We can't teach them anything else. There are still some such students after graduating from junior high school, but there shouldn't be too many." Teacher Zhao Bingqiang said.
Moreover, Shangwa Primary School where their previous students attended did not have such good conditions, especially after Teacher Zhang came. Shangwa Primary School changed drastically.
"Well, not every student can go to high school." Teacher Su Mei also agreed.
"What is the current diversion rate in Jinzhao County?" Zhang Beichen asked.
"Less than 50%, and all seven high schools are included." Zhao Bingqiang replied, "But the non-focus of those schools is really just for fun, it is better to go directly to a vocational school."
"You can't say that. In fact, as long as you enter high school, no matter how good or bad you are, you can go to a university in the future. It's just that there are good and bad universities." Zhang Beichen said.
This is a fact.
In fact, in China, as long as you can go to high school, you can definitely go to university, even if your college entrance examination score is very low.
Some of the universities that Zhang Beichen refers to that can be attended by money are not really famous universities.
Although it is a bit embarrassing, and although these schools are not that good, at least you can learn something, especially if you work hard.
And you can also get a college diploma.
Sometimes, this is a stepping stone. You may not be too good with this kind of brick, but you can't live without it.
