Seven Years Of Hard Work For Military Spouse To Run Schools For Migrant Workers

Yesterday was the first day of school, and more than 200 special pupils came to Rongchang in Pujiang Road, Longhu.

These students are special because they come from more than 10 provinces in the country. They are children from migrant workers who come to work in Shantou province.

Free shuttle bus provides free lunch to preschool and first grade students. The school provides free two school uniforms every season, and free textbooks are available to preschool students.

The school is considerate of students, and the tuition fees are reduced to the minimum each semester.

This loud and loud reading voice, especially to a woman, is full of joy and satisfaction, and it also moves people who understand Rongchang schools.

She is the founder and principal of the school, and Fan Rongchang, a former military spouse.

In the past seven years since the founding of the school, Fan Rongchang has gone through a very arduous pioneering process. He moved from scratch, moved several times, and spent a lot of effort and money, only to support a "home" - the desire to let the children of migrant workers have a "home". This year, Fan Rongchang, 54, was born in Henan, and graduated from Nanyang normal school in 1976. He was named the first batch of senior teachers in the country in 1988.

In 1980, she worked in Xinjiang for 20 years with the army. She was repeatedly rated as an advanced education worker and excellent teacher at the district level.

In 1998, she went to Shantou with her lover Gu Zhonglin.

As a "foreign worker", Fan Rongchang contacted more workers in Shantou Province, which changed her mind and feelings greatly.

One time when she came home from work, she met two teenage girls at Chen CuO's roadside. She turned the waste paper and bottle in the garbage dump. She couldn't help asking why she didn't read. The children asked in a panic, "are you a teacher?"

We didn't want to read, but we didn't have money at home, dad said, "I'll pick up the trash and save enough to go to school."

Hearing these words, watching the children's naive, eager to read the eyes, Fan Rongchang's heart of love arises spontaneously.

From then on, Fan Rongchang visited Chen Cuohe and Xia Guipu on the weekends and holidays, and found that this area is a relatively concentrated area of migrant workers. Their children are quite young at school age. For many reasons, it is difficult to find suitable schools.

Fan Rongchang has sprouted the idea of a hope school and a warm home for these children.

In March 2001, Fan Rongchang was invited to participate in the Symposium on floating children education and juvenile crime prevention held in Kunming by the British children's Aid Association and the China Youth Crime Prevention Research Center.

For this reason, she gave up the opportunity to organize teaching and arranged for a school with migrant workers and children in a hot heart.

In the seven years and four degrees of entrepreneurship, the school moved five shifts to the site.

Fan Rongchang spent 200 thousand of his wife's conversion fee, together with all his family property, as the starting capital. He just started hiring a private factory building, looking for someone to decorate, buy desks and chairs, equip teaching equipment, and recruit teachers to the job market.

After half a year's efforts, the school finally started in September 2001.

As a result of starting from scratch, the conditions and venues for school running are difficult to meet the requirements at once and cause repeated eviction and relocation.

In seven years, it moved four degrees and moved five times.

Every move and relocation must be renovated and renovated, and the rent is higher than the rent each time, and the expenditure is tight.

Fan Rongchang clenched his teeth. He got up every day and went home at 10 in the evening.

In the fifth year, the school has just entered the right track, and the original site was suddenly converted into a residential area, requiring that it be removed within a week.

Fan Rongchang did not have any mental preparation. In a hurry, he paid a high price for a civilian building in Xia Guipu, and spent nearly one hundred thousand yuan on furnished tables and chairs. In less than half a year, he failed to pass the inspection by the relevant departments. He ordered the relocation to be limited, otherwise more than 400 students would be diverted.

At that time, the lover had just finished the stomach cutting operation, and the body needed to be treated and nursed. The only child had to take care of the child, and the two loads of family and school pressed Fan Rongchang hard to breathe.

With the help of the Commissioner for work in Longhu District, he chose the site now.

Where is the school site chosen?

When Fan Rongchang had no way, he turned to his comrades in arms.

Later, Mr. zealous Mr. Shaw heard about the situation and gave generously to ease the pressure of insufficient funds.

So far, Fan Rongchang has invested about 1000000 yuan in raising money.

The honorary "external personnel" was chosen as the model worker in the city. Many people do not understand Fan Rongchang's practice. The husband has a stable job, the child is also big, and the family is not short of money. Why do he still work so hard?

Fan Rongchang said: "I do not plan anything, in order to do a social responsibility."

The purpose of Fan Rongchang's founding of the school is "service, care and dedication".

In the past seven years, schools have waived more than 150 books and tuition fees for poor students. Last year, they sent two school uniforms to more than 200 students.

In order to take care of students who are far away from school and are not convenient to go to school, they also borrow money to buy a free van for free daily.

Fan Rongchang and teachers often work overtime to help their children with their homework. The annual summer holidays are free to open English classes, calligraphy classes and dance classes to enrich the children's holiday life.

The parents sent the banner of "love for migrant workers and selfless love" to the school.

In the past seven years, Fan Rongchang has gone through a very arduous pioneering course. He has also been affirmed by the society. On the eve of "71" in 2004 and 2005, Fan Rongchang was appraised as an excellent party worker and a school Party branch by Longhu District Education Bureau as an advanced grass-roots party organization.

In November of 2005, she was also rated as an advanced individual in Longhu area who was concerned about the next generation of work, and the school was also rated as an advanced unit.

She was also selected as the city's labor model in May 1, 2006.
