Xinping No.1 Middle School, formerly known as Xinping County Junior High School, was founded in March of the 16th year of the Republic of China (1927). With the support of Zhang Yanan, the then county magistrate, Guangxu of Xinping took the initiative to establish Xinping County Junior Middle School and served as the principal, with a three-year academic system. In that year 1 class enrolled 24 students, and in the following year 1 class enrolled more than 20 students. In view of the historical conditions at that time, the school enrolled students every two years, and the school was a two-level school.

The establishment of the school, like a dazzling lightning, opened the door to ignorance and poverty and brought green vitality to the students, thus opening a new chapter in the history of Xinping education. In order to write down this rich and colorful stroke, Ma Taiyuan, who is "looking for a Confucian forest", personally wrote the school motto of "diligence, simplicity and perseverance" and wrote an inscription with the stone as his ambition. In addition, in order to select the backbone and encourage students to become pillars, a school song was also presented.
