How is Chongqing No. 5 Middle School?

Chongqing Guangyi Middle School (formerly Chongqing No. 5 Middle School) was founded in 1892. Missionary Robert Tao Weixin enrolled boys in Daliangzi, Chongqing (now Xinhua Road, Yuzhong District) in 1894. The school moved to No. 23, Xiadu Post Street (today’s Jiefangbei Meimei Department Store). It was approved by the Chuandong Daotai of the Qing Dynasty and was first called Guangyi Academy. In 1898, it was renamed Guangyi Academy. In 1904, it moved from Xiadu Post Street to Ba County. Chongwenli (the current address of Huangjueya, Nan'an District) was renamed Guangyi Middle School. In 1928, due to the anti-religious movement, the school broke away from the Christian Friendship Association of London, England. It was taken over by Yang Fengling, a Chinese, and restructured into Chongqing Private Guangyi Middle School. In the same year, Liu Xiang, a member of the Sichuan Provincial Government and a warlord in eastern Sichuan, personally presented the school with a plaque titled "The Crown of Jiangba School". Now it has a long history of 122 years, with alumni all over the country and abroad, and has made great achievements in running the school.

In 2001, it entered the ranks of Chongqing Joint Admissions Schools. It was one of the first batch of municipal-level "civilized etiquette demonstration schools" in Chongqing and a "model middle school" in Nan'an District. In April 2007, it was promoted to a key middle school in Chongqing. "Be humble when climbing high, and be humble when traveling far away" is the school's motto. The school spirit is: "Civilized, enterprising, realistic and innovative". The teaching style is: "Be moral, cultivate people, learn high and be rigorous". "Study diligently, seek truth, think more, and practice more" is the style of study. Starting from entering the joint education school industry in 2001, the school's development has entered a new historical period, inheriting a century-old heritage, establishing a modern brand, running high-quality products, and producing unique things. Now, all the teachers, students and staff of the school are marching towards a new journey with their heads held high - the 120th anniversary of Guangyi.
