Wenshang County No.2 Middle School was founded in 1996. It is an ordinary high school aided by Taiwan Province Xu Zhen. Although the quality of teaching has been rising year after year and the social reputation has been continuously improved, the development potential of the school is limited due to insufficient financial investment and debt management. Attracting foreign investment to develop education and transforming No.2 Middle School into a private school are put on the important agenda of the county, which coincides with Sun Cungang's idea. After his contacts and positive recommendation, in April 2002, the school accepted an investment of 30 million yuan from Master Shi Yongxin, president of Shaolin Charity and Welfare Foundation and abbot of Shaolin Temple, and planned to turn the former No.2 Middle School into a provincial-level standardized school in three years, and renamed it Shengze Chinese and English School.
The establishment of Shengze Middle School conforms to the wave of educational investment diversification. It has no old rules and regulations and can carry out reforms that are difficult for state-run middle schools. This is the vitality of Shengze Middle School. In a short period of one year and three months, he raised more than 20 million yuan successively, and built a comprehensive building of 6.5438+0.68 million square meters, a student apartment of 6.5438+0.10.00 million square meters, and a multifunctional restaurant of 6.5438+0.27 million square meters. The school has built a campus network, a laboratory, a computer room and a language lab with gigabit to the building and 100 megabytes to the desktop.
Sun Cungang, chairman of Shengze Middle School, often talks about "keeping people by career, feelings and treatment". In order to attract and retain talents, the school has established a mechanism of assessment, reward and punishment, education and training, hired 20 elite teachers in the form of personnel agency, regularly invited domestic and foreign education experts to visit the school, provided high-end apartments for teachers free, and organized teachers to visit and study in other places during the summer vacation. The 15th day of the first month of every year is Foreign Teachers' Day. Sun Cungang and President Yang accompany foreign teachers to celebrate the festival. 654.38+0.96 million yuan was used to reward outstanding talents, which mobilized the enthusiasm of faculty and staff.
"Satisfy students, reassure parents and satisfy society" is a solemn promise made by Shengze Middle School to the society. Sun Cungang put forward the management mode of "full-time, whole campus and closed", and trained 4,000 students in paramilitary training, which made the students deeply feel the warmth and strength of the collective. He went to Jining, hired a nutritionist with high salary, and prepared different nutrition packages according to the growth and development characteristics of students. The student apartment is equipped with hot water supply and bathing equipment, which provides students with a safe and comfortable learning and living environment. At the same time, rural students with difficult family life can also enjoy high-quality education services from the school. The school has reduced the training fee for students with difficulties by more than 200,000 yuan, and will set up the Shengze Scholarship Foundation at the end of the year to help poor students from poor families complete their studies.
Today's Shengze Middle School didn't cost the country a penny, which saved the training cost of 1 100 yuan for the country, solved the re-employment of more than 200 people, and met the social demand of popularizing high school education. They are actively trying to build a league and run an international school. When talking about the future development prospects, Sun Cungang said with confidence: "We will firmly seize the opportunity brought by China's entry into WTO, set up the West Campus in six years according to the needs of collectivization and industrialization development, acquire 600 mu of land off campus in 10, set up institutions of higher learning, and develop Shengze Middle School into a modern education group."
