I worked as the first vice principal and principal in a vocational middle school for seven years, which was the most unforgettable period in my life. I have devoted myself to it, worked hard and enjoyed the life course of success and joy.
As an educator in this hot land, I have the responsibility and obligation to recall some unforgettable people and events and some unforgettable feelings in these seven years, so I readily promised.
In this way, I traveled through time and space and entered the past years of vocational middle schools.
I vaguely remember one day in September, 1984. Comrade Yin, then deputy director of the Propaganda Department, said to me, "The county party secretary asked you to go to his office this afternoon." . What can I do for Secretary Guo? With doubts, I went to Secretary Guo's office.
Secretary Guo gave me the impression that he was approachable and amiable. Talking to me is like talking to an old friend. Actually, I don't know Secretary Guo.
He said: "A new vocational middle school has been built in our county, and the Standing Committee has decided to let you be the first vice principal and take charge of the work. If you agree, go back and explain your current job and take office tomorrow. Vocational school is a new job, you should try your best to run the school well. "
I said, "Secretary Guo, I know nothing about vocational education. I'm afraid I can't get it. Let others go. " Secretary Guo said, "Go, you don't know how to learn slowly." .
I have nothing to say here. Is it fate? Or heaven rewards hard work? How did I suddenly become a middle school principal from a primary school principal? Life is like this, you never know what the next page is, all you can do is keep looking back.
After Secretary Guo finished, I took office by bike. At this point, I think it's time to briefly review the history of vocational middle schools so as not to forget the roots.
The school site of vocational middle school is located in the south bank of Dashagou, north of Jingping, about five miles away from Jingping. At that time, there was only one vocational middle school in Beiping, which was remote and desolate. Water and electricity are often cut off, and the conditions for running a school are very difficult.
At the beginning of the school year, there were 48 bungalows, 18 faculty and staff, and two classes of students, one called farming and animal husbandry class, 18 students, the other called English class (normal class) and 59 students.
Comrade Hu Meng, the deputy county magistrate, is also the honorary president, and I am the first vice president in charge of this work. Comrade Zhan Huai is the secretary of the Party branch, Wang Quxi and Wang Huan are the vice presidents, and Zhang Rihua is the director of education.

There are 9 culture teachers, all young people, most of whom are graduates of Yanbei Normal University. Vocational middle school is the first stop of their work. They are full of vigor and enthusiasm, and have the vigor and wisdom of educated youth.
The logistics personnel are older, but they have the characteristics of that era: loyal to their duties, hardworking and frugal.
The road to vocational middle school is worth writing down. This slope is long and steep, especially in cold winter. If the road is covered with black ice, riding a bike on the road is really jittery, walking on thin ice, afraid of falling all the way.
Like the Long March of the Red Army, my teachers and I walked about three Wan Li when we were transferred from our posts in September. 1990. They joked: "We study like the Red Army and walk the 25,000-mile long March!"
Time flies, and the years leave marks, so the first generation of vocational middle school students ride bicycles to and from more than 20 miles every day, braving the cold in winter and hot in summer, not afraid of hardship, fatigue, no regrets and hard work. Today, this experience is still vivid and unforgettable.
There is still a long way to go in Xiu Yuan, and I will go up and down. What should vocational middle schools do? We went to the Vocational Education Office of the Provincial Education Commission and the Education Bureau of Yanbei Administrative Office to consult our colleagues. At the same time, I also went to vocational middle schools inside and outside the province to study and inspect; Of course, I also found relevant literature to study and discuss.
In the continuous study, exploration and practice, we contacted the actual situation of our county and found the first way:
That is to set up a major according to social needs.
Specialty setting can meet the demand of local economic construction and people's life for talents, so as to realize the connection between "production and marketing docking" and "training and use".
In order to make the specialty setting more adaptable, we must attach great importance to social investigation. From 1984 to 1990, we should go deep into institutions, enterprises, institutions and towns to conduct extensive social surveys every year, and have an accurate and auspicious understanding of the demand for talents.
According to the demand, majors such as coal mining, English, accounting, maternal and child health care, mine electromechanical, ceramic technology, garment cutting and production have been set up, and more than 2,000 professional and technical personnel have been trained.
65438-0984 According to the demand of schools for English teachers, English majors are set up, focusing on training English teachers in primary and secondary schools.

Hu Meirong, a student of this class, 1986 to 1994 works as an English teacher in Wowohui Middle School. Her substitute class won the first place in the senior high school entrance examination for five years in a row, became a public teacher, was rated as a backbone teacher by the Provincial Department of Education, was awarded the title of excellent class teacher and model teacher by the Municipal Education Bureau, and was rated as a senior lecturer.
Jia Zhigang of this class is now a professor at Northwest A&F University. Tang Xingping is a famous English teacher in Rocket Class of Shuozhou No.1 Middle School. Zhao Pisen is a famous English teacher in Lilin Middle School.
According to incomplete statistics, 24 students, including Guo Yongliang, the current teaching director of Pinglu No.2 Middle School, have become excellent English teachers in primary and secondary schools in the whole region through different channels and unremitting efforts, and some even become school leaders.
Students can achieve such excellent results, people will not forget the English teacher Xue Zhenbiao, nor will they forget the head teacher Liu Hai and other teachers, who have contributed greatly.
Starting from 1985, according to the needs of various technical talents in township coal mines, related majors have been set up one after another. After several years, we have trained a group of professional and technical personnel needed by coal mines. Many of these students have become the technical backbone of coal mines and are still active in the coal front.
, Meng, Chen, Yang Yi, etc. The coal mine survey class alone has worked in various coal industry groups. Some are developing their careers in other provinces and cities: Wang Shangyi is in Weinan, Shaanxi, and Liu Zhenxiong is in Yuncheng. According to students, there are still many people who have developed in other places.
When he was a student, Cao Jianxin used his skills to boldly start a business, and successively built coal mines and iron mines in Inner Mongolia and other places, becoming a well-known private entrepreneur.
People will never forget that Zhao Yong, Shiping Li, Hou Run, Zhao Wei, Cui Qi and Xu Ping, the teachers of coal professional courses, gave up the generous treatment in the coal industry and were willing to teach in a vocational middle school with very difficult school conditions, which in itself is a noble selfless dedication!
Vocational middle school graduates rely on their own skills, self-improvement, hard work and bold innovation, and have made due contributions to the country and society.
Many people have a successful career and become leaders in all walks of life; People are afraid of their incompetence whenever and wherever they are. As long as they have a skill, they won't worry about not having their own market. As long as people and things are done well, traveling around the world is an excellent trump card, and the whole world will make way for you.
There is still a long way to go in Xiu Yuan, and I will go up and down. In the continuous study and practice, the second road we explore is:
We must take the road of running schools jointly.
Vocational and technical education involves teachers, textbooks, school funds, practice bases, student employment and many other aspects. Therefore, it is impossible for a person to run a school behind closed doors. We must win the support of all sectors of society and take the road of running schools jointly.
We have cooperation with Coal Management Bureau, Health Bureau, Family Planning Commission, Ceramic Factory and Township Bureau.
The liaison office did its duty and did a lot of work: helped solve the school funds, professional teachers and practice bases, and actively contacted graduates for employment. They helped solve 43 professional teachers and provided Daxing Coal Mine and Papaya Coal Mine. More than 20 practice bases, such as Pinglu County People's Hospital and Shanyin County People's Hospital, have enabled students to learn not only theory but also practical skills.
It's a long way, Xiu Yuan Xi. I'll go up and down. Our third way is:
According to the needs of the society, hold short-term training courses for all kinds of on-the-job personnel to improve their quality.
The natural resource in Pinglu is coal, but most of the mine managers and on-the-job technicians in township coal mines are not qualified for their posts.
This situation has seriously restricted economic development. In view of this situation, we jointly established the "Shuozhou Branch of Shanxi Coal Staff Training Center" with Shanxi Coal Staff Training Center.
The branch school is located in Pinglu Vocational Middle School, and a new brand has been put up in Pinglu Vocational Middle School, called "Shuozhou Branch of Shanxi Coal Staff Training Center", which is responsible for training mine managers and on-the-job technicians of township coal mines in Shuozhou City. After passing the training, they will issue certificates on behalf of the provincial training center.
1On May 25th, 989, presided over by Comrade Mei Jinshan, then the head of Pinglu District, the opening ceremony of "Shanxi Coal Staff Training Center Shuozhou Branch" was held in the conference hall of the district committee.
Li Piquan, Party Secretary of Provincial Coal Department, Lei Gong, Secretary General of Shuozhou Municipal Government, and Li Yao, Director of Shuozhou Municipal Education Commission, spoke at the meeting. The mine manager who participated in the training and the relevant leaders of Pinglu District attended the meeting.
The convening of this meeting marks the formal establishment of Shuozhou Branch of Shanxi Coal Staff Training Center in Pinglu Vocational Middle School.
1985-1990 September, held three training courses for township coal mine managers in the whole city, training mine managers 122 people; More than 600 on-the-job technicians in township coal mines have been trained, and all of them have passed the examination.
What you deliberately pursue may not be available for a lifetime, but the brilliance you didn't expect will come unexpectedly in your indifference and calmness. It's hard, but only by blowing away the wild sand will you get gold.
With the strong support of leaders at all levels and all walks of life, through the efforts of vocational school students, all the work in our school has gradually stepped onto a formal and better situation, which has been recognized and praised by the society and leaders at all levels.
A lot of work at that time is still worth remembering today, and many can be used for reference today and tomorrow.
Our school was awarded "Red Flag Unit of Educational Reform" by Yanbei District Committee and Administrative Office. It was awarded "1987— 1989 Advanced Collective of Vocational and Technical Education in Shanxi Province" by the Provincial Education Commission.
At the meeting of the first batch of principals of key qualified vocational middle schools in Shanxi Province, our school made a typical speech of "aiming at township enterprises and serving economic construction". At the "Shanxi rural education reform experience exchange meeting", our school made a typical speech of "facing the society and taking the road of running schools jointly".
1987 10, Pinglu Vocational Middle School was inspected and accepted by Shanxi Provincial Education Commission as "the first batch of key qualified vocational middle schools in Shanxi Province".
1989 The third issue of Shanxi Education Magazine was entitled "Cradle of Cultivating Technical Talents", and the fourth issue was entitled "The Broad Road of Joint Education", which introduced our school-running experience.
Shanxi TV reported the deeds of Pinglu Vocational Middle School on 1989 and 1990 respectively.
Stars don't ask people who are in a hurry, and time pays off. Vocational schools can be recognized by society because of the spirit of vocational middle school students, who have gone through a difficult and tortuous road. There are not only professional teachers, but also cultural teachers such as Zhang Rihua, Gao Juncheng, Wang Ping, Jia, Yang Zhanbin, Ji Zhenhua, Zhao Jiyong and Ji Changqing. They are conscientious and conscientious.
Wang Xiqi, Li Jinhua, Wu and other logistics personnel have also made their due contributions to the normal operation of the school!
1September, 990, Comrade Mei Jinshan, then secretary of Pinglu District Committee, talked to me and asked me to work in Lilin Middle School. Since then, I have left the vocational middle school.
Good years lie in their inevitable passage. It has been 29 years since I left the vocational school.
The original Pinglu vocational middle school is a pure land in the minds of the first generation of vocational middle school students, which has written a lot in the history of Pinglu education.
The spirit of self-reliance, hard struggle, courage to explore, pioneering and self-improvement of the first generation of vocational middle school students is still precious in today's new journey of "Do not forget your initiative mind, bearing in mind the mission" and building Socialism with Chinese characteristics in an all-round way. May this spirit be passed down and carried forward forever.
This document is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, to the students of the first generation of vocational schools, and to the leaders at all levels and people of insight who have given full support to vocational schools!
Several years have passed and things have changed. At that time, for the lofty vocational and technical education of the party and the country, some people tried their best to work hard, and some people were old. Some of them are getting old; Some of them haven't waited for me, the junior principal, to say sincerely: thank you! He left this world in a hurry.
Although there are no earth-shattering achievements, they have made extraordinary achievements for the party and the motherland in their ordinary posts.
They stand in my heart forever like monuments! I will always remember them! History will not forget them! People will never forget them!

Once, Professor Dai Jianye of Huazhong Normal University told his students about his marriage: his wife grew up in the city and was beautiful, but she was a poor student from the countryside. After only a few days of marriage, we quarreled intermittently for eight years. Then one night, Dai Jianye watched him fall asleep.
