Fu Jia, the headmaster stationed in a remote primary school： Dashan’s ＂daughter＂ went home.

CCTV News:Waergang Primary School is the most remote and remote mountain village primary school in Taoyuan County, Hunan Province.

At 7: 20 in the morning, the morning glow on the horizon and the clouds in the mountains have not yet dispersed. In the classroom of the sixth grade of Waergang Primary School in Niuchehe, Taoyuan County, Hunan Province, Lang Lang’s reading sound has already been heard. At this time, Fu Jia is explaining poetry to 11 students.

Three years ago, Fu Jia saw the information that his primary school alma mater was recruiting rural teachers, so he resigned from a well-paid job in Changsha and returned to the place where he grew up and became a teacher at Waergang Primary School. Today, Fu Jia is the principal of Waergang Primary School. The 24-year-old young principal is not only a "general teacher" for children, but also an omnipotent "all-round principal" in the eyes of children.　 　 　

21-year-old Tao Li Nianhua returned home to teach.

"Yellow River Wan Li sand, waves TaoFeng winnow from the end of the world. Now go straight to the Milky Way and go to the home of Petunia and Weaver Girl. "

In the class of Waergang Primary School, Wang Liyan, a student, is reciting the ancient poem Langtaosha Jiuqu Yellow River Wan Li Sand with the tune of Legend of the New White Snake, and this method of reciting by singing is one of the "magic weapons" of Fujia’s teaching.

Because the students are young, they have limited understanding of many words in ancient poetry, and it is difficult to empathize with the poet’s emotions. In order to stimulate children’s interest in learning, Fu Jia will try to make children recite poems in ancient sounds, or even sing them out in the melody of familiar pop songs.

Niuchehe Town, where Waergang Primary School is located, is located at the eastern edge of Wuling Mountain, at the junction of Changde, Zhangjiajie and Huaihua in Hunan, with high mountains and long roads and inconvenient transportation. Among the 46 students in the school, left-behind children whose parents go out to work account for nearly 90%.

Waergang Primary School accepts children from four surrounding villages. Due to the small number of students, including Fu Jia, there are only seven teachers in the school, and all of them are female teachers. Fu Jia not only teaches Chinese at school, but also teaches English, art, music, physical education and many other subjects. In order to teach the children well, she also taught herself guitar and other musical instruments.　

The school’s cement basketball court is the main position of physical education class. In class, Fu Jia is not only a PE teacher, but also a referee and player. When I first came to school, the school’s sports equipment was very short, and only a football with a leak was barely used as a basketball.

In the past two years, with the primary school in this mountain village being gradually paid more attention, dozens of basketball and football have been donated, and other sports and fitness equipment such as hula hoop have been continuously sent. Although playing ball with her children will make her happy every time, the lack of professional teachers of music, sports and beauty in the school has always been her heart disease.　

Now the school environment has improved. In order to make children study better, children in grade four and above eat and live at school and go home on weekends. In order to take good care of the children, Fu Jia has become a "universal mother".

The "universal mother" of 46 students

At noon, when the meal is served, the children line up neatly to receive the meal, and lunch is a standard configuration every day. However, some children don’t like radishes or vegetables, and they always take advantage of Fu Jia’s inattention and secretly pour the vegetables into the leftovers bucket. Every time Fu Jia finds out, she will quietly write down these children. The next time she makes pickles, she will definitely ask them to help and let them participate in the labor together.　

Fu Jia said, I want them to know that food and vegetables are hard to come by in the process of washing, cutting and drying radishes by hand, so that they can develop a habit of cherishing food.

Recently, Shanshan, a sixth grader, looked depressed. After Fu Jia found out that something was wrong with her, she called her outside the classroom to have a heart-to-heart talk after class. It turned out that Grandpa Shanshan’s tuberculosis had relapsed and he was coughing up blood. He had been sent to the city hospital for treatment overnight, while Grandma Yuan Xueqing herself was suffering from various diseases and could not do heavy work.

Shanshan and her sister, who are in the first grade, have repeatedly told Fu Jia that they want to go out to work early to earn money. In order to stabilize the children’s mood and visit their families, Fu Jia drove more than 10 kilometers of mountain roads for home visits, and this is the fifth time she has come to Shanshan’s house this year.

After Shanshan’s parents divorced, her mother went away from home and never heard from her. Her father worked in Huizhou factory in Guangdong all the year round and came back at most once a year. He could only send home more than 20,000 yuan every year, basically buying medicine for the two old people. The situation like Shanshan is not uncommon in Waergang Primary School. Here, 40% of the students come from single-parent families. Fu Jia not only takes good care of every child’s emotions, but also tries to solve their practical problems.

During Fu Jia’s teaching for more than three years, the value of newly acquired materials and materials donated by caring people in the school totaled about 1,592,900 yuan, and 29 poor students received financial aid successively. Every child in the school received school supplies, clothes and even household necessities donated by caring people.

Teach the children, take care of their food and drink, Lassa, chop wood and light fire, do laundry and cook, and do all kinds of dirty work. Since entering the school in August 2016, Fu Jia’s three-year grass-roots service period has long passed. According to the regulations of the education department of Taoyuan County, she can apply for transfer to a school with better conditions, but she did not hesitate to choose to stay.　

In three years, children are increasingly inseparable from this omnipotent "all-round principal" and "all-round mother". Choose to stay, because Fu Jia feels that the children need her, and she also feels that what she has done is very meaningful.

"choose to stay, the children need me."

There is almost no decoration in Fu Jia’s room, and two dolls on the bed were given by friends when they came to see her. But she has a lot of treasures, such as small gifts given to her by children in recent years, small wind chimes made of waste materials, thank-you letters written all over the text, and many small paintings drawn by Zhang Xuesheng. No gift costs more than two yuan, but it is the most precious treasure in her heart.　

Fu Jia received a "big gift" from the students.

One day, a first-grade child stopped her on the road that day and gave her a "big gift". Fu Jia proudly told reporters: "I thought it was just a blank piece of paper that looked very simple. As soon as I opened it and saw a rainbow-like fan in it, I felt very attentive, very happy and gratified."

In more than three years at school, not only Fu Jia has grown, but Wa ‘ergang Primary School has also become better day by day. The school has newly acquired solar street lamps, brand-new adjustable desks and chairs, multimedia audio-visual equipment and monitoring probes to ensure school safety, and the teachers’ turnover room has also been put into use. The treatment of teachers in schools has also been fully implemented in accordance with relevant policies.

On December 26, 2019, the Qianzhangchang Railway, which runs through Chongqing, Guizhou and Hunan provinces, was opened. This railway, which is responsible for poverty alleviation, brought hope to Niuchehe Town, which is rich in resources. After the train is opened, it takes only 20 minutes by train from Niuchehe Town to Taoyuan County, while it took 2 hours by shuttle bus before. Now Fu Jia wants to take the children out for a walk every day to let them have more contact with the outside world.

"I think the greatest significance of education to help the poor is to make rural education and urban education closer, and then let students get better education. We must make urban and rural education more integrated, so that all students’ horizons can be at a level." Speaking of the significance of education, Fu Jia confided his feelings to reporters.　

At the beginning, Fu Jia studied hard in order to get out of the mountains and change his destiny. When she grew up, Fu Jia chose to go back to the mountains and feed her hometown in order to let more children in her hometown walk out of the mountains like her.

Perhaps, in the near future, they will sing like that song, "When I grow up, I will be you!" "
