On the one hand, the school does this out of respect for the school history and teacher Zhou; On the other hand, considering the requirements of many old alumni, they have a strong sense of identity and belonging to the history of our school, and they are more willing to see old things when they revisit their old places. Therefore, in the last relocation, the school did not change the original inscription. The new building was built in the same way.
