The connotation of school motto:
The school motto was drafted by the famous historian Qi Gong. "Learning to be excellent is to be an official" is the standard and spiritual pursuit of China's intellectuals' personality cultivation, and it is also an insight from his 70-year teaching career.
The most basic meaning of Qigong is "what you learn is a teacher in the world, and what you do is a model in the world". Learning refers to the knowledge, knowledge and skills that every teacher and student should possess. Learning to be a teacher is to make "learning" an example for future study. Behavior, that is, every teacher and student should have a moral character, a world model, that is, all aspects should be aboveboard at all times and be able to become a model in society.
He pointed out that no one in the school motto carries out examinations, inspections, grading and selection, and the key to practicing the school motto lies in the consciousness of teachers and students. Whether what you have learned can really become a model is not measured or represented by "professional title" or "level"; Whether what you have done can really be a model, but you should always ask yourself if you have any thoughts and actions to be ashamed of.
