History of Wentong in Jiujiang Wentong Middle School

The fishing songs of Jiujiang, Kuanglu, Cui Rong and Peng Li, the thoroughfare of the Yangtze River, are rich in products and the people are happy. Historically, people gathered together and their culture developed.

Enjoy the reputation of "land of truth, land of justice"! In 1950s and 1960s, the history of Jiujiang in modern times began to change dramatically. In modern Jiujiang, according to the Tianjin Treaty of 1858, trading ports were opened. After Jiujiang opened its port, the modern economy developed in the competition with foreign businessmen. Under the baptism of European style and beautiful rain, Chinese and western cultures blend, and the social atmosphere and people's values are gradually changing. Wentong Middle School and Confucian Girls' School were born under this background.

140 years ago, 1867, American Methodist missionaries Hurley and Tao Li came to Jiujiang from Fujian. He set up a classroom at Tuqiaokou (now Xupu Road) outside Jiujiang Concession and founded Brown Primary School. 188 1 year, the German-American missionary Kusufei came to Jiujiang to take charge of the school affairs of Brown Primary School, and planted flowers and trees on the newly selected school site, opened up a playground, built school buildings and enriched equipment, and formally established a two-level school for primary and secondary schools, taking the meaning of "all over the world, cars on the same track, books on the same book" in The Mean. 1905, Wentong established a university named "Jiujiang Nanweilie University", also known as "Nanweilie Academy". Jiujiang Nanweilie University is divided into preparatory courses and junior colleges. 19 17, due to the financial difficulties of the school, Nanweilie University, which founded 12, had to reluctantly close down and was renamed as "Jiujiang Wentong Middle School".

Under the background of Jiujiang's opening to the outside world and the impact of western culture in modern times, Gertrude Howe, an American female missionary, came to Jiujiang in the autumn of 1872, and on New Year's Day of 1873, Ms. Hao Geju, who is known as the "first American-Israeli missionary woman", founded a half-day girls' primary school in Jiujiang.

1898, Li Kaide, a missionary, became the principal for 34 years, changing a half-day girls' school into a full-time school. In September, 1907, the middle school department was added. In the same year, in memory of Ms. Lurison, the deputy editor of Xinhua News in Michigan, the school was officially renamed Lurison Girls' High School. Li Ru Girls' Middle School founded Jiujiang Girls' School, which is also the earliest girls' school in Jiangxi.

1938, due to the Japanese invaders approaching, Jiujiang was in danger. In order not to make students drop out of school and interrupt the history of the school, Wentong Middle School and Li Ru Girls' Middle School went through all kinds of hardships and moved to Bishan County in the suburbs of Chongqing and Zizhong Middle School in Sichuan (and 1940 Suining) respectively, and persisted in running schools.

On May 1949, 17, Jiujiang returned to the people's arms amid the rumble of a million soldiers crossing the river.

Jiujiang was liberated, and Confucianism with the same language was reborn. June 1950, 10 People's Government took over Li Ru Girls' Middle School and renamed it "Jiangxi Xunyang Girls' Middle School"; On June 1950, 1 1 day, Wentong Middle School held a ceremony to recover its educational sovereignty, which was officially taken over by the people's government and renamed as "Xunyang Middle School in Jiangxi Province". The following year, the Rulin Girls' Middle School merged with Jiujiang Middle School. 1952 was renamed "Jiujiang No.2 Middle School". 200 1 With the approval of Jiujiang Municipal Government, Jiujiang No.2 Middle School was restored to its original name: Jiujiang Wentong Middle School.

In the history of running schools of Confucianism and Wentong, both principals made great contributions, which is still widely known today. Wu, a native of Jiujiang, Jiangxi, 19 15 graduated from Confucian girls' high school. After graduation, she entered Jinling Women's College of Arts and Sciences with a bachelor's degree, and then went to the University of Minnesota for further study and returned to China with a master's degree. 1929, Wu became the third principal of Kong Li Girls' Middle School after Ms. Li Kaide, and the first person from China to be the principal of Kong Li Girls' Middle School. She presided over the school affairs for 24 years, was enthusiastic about education, never married, took the school as her home and treated her students like nephews until 1952 died. Xiong Xiangxi, a newcomer from Jiangxi, holds a bachelor's degree from Jinling University, a master's degree from Northwest University and a bachelor's degree from Gardner University. 1928, Xiong Xiangxi became the principal of Wentong Middle School. He was in charge of the school for 24 years until 1952 when he left school and returned to Shanghai. When President Xiong Xiangxi was in charge of Wentong Middle School, he put forward the school motto of "study hard and be a good person" and the principle of "pay equal attention to reading and being a man, and pay equal attention to being an adult and becoming a talent", clearly requiring teachers to "cultivate students' moral character and improve their level" so that they can be meticulous, persistent and unforgettable in their life and study. Especially in the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, President Xiong Xiangxi led all the teachers and students to speak the same language in Dingjiaao.

Build a thatched cottage as a classroom, dig wells to get water, work hard and persist in running schools. As always, there are more than 400 teachers and students, most of whom are Sichuan children. Nowadays, although these fellow students are over 80 years old, they are still full of enthusiasm when they think of the Chinese character 10 shoveled by President Xiong Xiangxi on the hillside, "Perfecting the ancient and modern laws and repairing the meaning of heaven and earth". 1942, Wentong Middle School celebrated its 75th anniversary. General Feng Yuxiang, former vice chairman of the Kuomintang Central Committee and honorary chairman of Wentong Middle School, visited the school to encourage teachers and students and congratulate them.

147, Wentong was a model of patriotism. Moral education has always been the main content of Wentong's middle school education. Strong patriotic feelings have always been the core connotation of Wentong's spirit, echoing the May Fourth Movement, recovering the concession and celebrating the liberation of Jiujiang. Wentong's flag is always the first to hunt and fly in Xunyang street. Even if the Japanese invaders trample on them and move Wentong thousands of miles to Bishan, Chongqing, they will never forget to persist in running schools, spreading culture, persisting in anti-Japanese propaganda and persisting in saving the country.
