On the other hand, Han Zixin was getting scolded by the principal without a break. It was as if the principal was on his periods and he was lashing out his real emotions at the poor boy.
“Sir, the boy is sorry. We should forgive him, “Teacher Jin, the former head teacher of class Ten K said. “We have another motive for today’s ceremony. Shouldn’t we complete that first?”
The principal stopped scolding and took deep breaths.
In another row, two boys were standing while looking at the principal who was scolding Han Zixin. They looked at each other, their eyes carrying the same question.
“Do you think our sister has something to do with this?” Gu Shangyan asked.-.
“Han Zixin is in trouble and how could it have nothing to do with our sister?” Lu Xuan snorted. He could just see from Han Zixin’s bowed figure that his sister was somehow involved.
“Hey, stop saying nonsense about our Queen, “Wang Yuxi glared at the two of them but was ignored.
“For once I thought she will think twice before acting stupid now that she is public figure, ” Lu Xuan sighed.
“Ah Xuan, look straight or now the principal is going to scold you. After all, you are the school’s favourite topic after Crybaby, ” Gu Shangyan didn’t not forget to inform him.
Lu Xuan groaned. He didn’t want to talk about this at all.
Finally, Han Zixin’s issue was resolved by punishing the boy. The punishment was light, thanks to teacher Jin who handled the matter quite well.
The principal stood on the podium and looked at all the students with a smile on his face. He greeted the students in a cheery voice, “Good morning, students.”
“Good morning, sir, “Everyone wished him back.
It was the first day of the school and everyone was filled with excitement and anticipation for the new school year.
“First of all, let’s clap for all the students of class Ten who managed to clear the difficult entrance test, “The principal said and the crowd erupted into claps. “This year ten thousand students applied for admission in the high school which is higher than ever.”
In the last few months, the school had built ten new buildings in the old abandoned playground to handle the extra crowd that came to their school. The ten buildings were donated to the school by Orchid groups of hotels.
Jingyuan high had to bring a lot of changes in its curriculum since last year. The school which was initially known for dominating the college entrance test was the first choice of the students for sports.
This year the school increased the reservation for the sport quota admissions from ten percent overall to twenty percent. This year, two students of Jingyuan high won national awards. Two senior students of last year joined the national football team.
“Another round of applause for the senior students that performed excellently in the college entrance test, “The principal announced. “We had twenty students that scored more than 700 marks out of 750. Five Students who scored more than 740 and a Student who scored perfect score. 750/750. As you all know, he is no one other than Han Nanxian. He is now studying in Havard on a full scholarship programme. The students who work hard got paid off the same way. Will you all work hard like your seniors?”
“Yes, sir!” The crowd erupted into cheers. They were shocked by hearing the extraordinary result of seniors.
There was no doubt that Jingyuan High was the best school in the country. If the top school ranking could be seen, Jingyuan High was topping even among the best schools of the capital city. The reason why it was the current best school would be because of its new curriculum.
“We, at Jingyuan High, understand that every student is unique, “The principal said into the microphone. “Every Student can’t score a perfect 750 like Han Nanxian and neither should they. If everyone began scoring perfect scores in one stream, where would be the variety? We identify and nurture our students’ individual talents at Jingyuan High. Every student could be the best in their field. There is no limit to talent and success.”
The students smiled and clapped. Many students in class ten applied to this school because they knew that this school was not obsessed with forcing the students to cram. The environment here was relaxed and motivating. This was one of the reasons why they wanted to study here. Another reason was that despite being a private school, the treatment of students was fair. The incidents of bullying here were negligible. This was how awesome this school was.
“Last month, a student of our school was invited by the honorable education minister to talk about the pressure that students feel in school and how the pressure could be relieved, “The principal said. The students were in awe of the girl. They had seen clips of the girl’s talk with the minister on the internet. “Due to her position, she acted as a representative of all the students of the country to talk about the condition of students in high school. Let’s applaud Student An Xiulan for taking this matter to a national level.”
When the Class Eleven heard the name of their classmate, they clapped loudly. Although she was a student of section K but since she was from class Eleven, everyone felt as if they belonged to the same class. It didn’t matter to anyone now if they were from class A or B or J. If they wanted to boast about being An Xiulan’s classmate, they would without any shame.
“Let’s welcome student An Xiulan on the stage with another round of applause, “The principal said with a wide smile and everyone clapped until their hands hurt.
The old teacher of An Xiulan looked at her with teary eyes and a hint of pride in their eyes. Teacher Wang, the English teacher, was so emotional that he was crying on the shoulder of the stoic social studies teacher.
