Be true for learning and sincere for standing.

School motto is the symbol of school spirit, the soul of school culture, the concentrated expression of school-running concept, and the expression of school's expectation and admonition for students and teachers' life development goals.

Our school motto is "seeking truth and being pragmatic", which has extremely profound and rich connotations.

The superficial definition of "truth is learning" is that truth is the method of learning, that is, learning with a true attitude. The profound understanding of "truth" includes two aspects: first, it refers to the origin and itself, and "truth for learning" refers to the learning value orientation of believing in science, fearing laws and pursuing true knowledge and truth; Second, it means truth and sincerity. "Seeking truth for learning" refers to the spiritual characteristics of seeking truth from facts, boldly questioning, bravely criticizing and actively exploring.

"Honesty"-its superficial definition is that honesty is the basis of honesty, that is, to become a person with "honest" character. The profound understanding of "sincerity" includes two aspects: one is sincere and sincere, pointing to people's "inner cultivation", that is, sincere feelings, simple personality, open mind and transparent heart; The second is honest life, which points to people's "outreach", that is, observing morality, keeping promises, communicating sincerely and rejecting falsehood.

The school motto of "truth-oriented, honesty-oriented" expresses the proofreader's overall expectation and concentrated admonition to teachers and students: learn to learn and learn to be a man.
