The College entrance examination rate and the rate of pass of the graduates from Dongqi Secondary School rank among top and the proportion the graduates from junior middle school entering the senior middle school is more than 90%.The School has taken the lead in implementing the education of high school of popularizing in the whole province.
In 2005 the school was the school is transferred in the local government of Mianzhu with National policy separating the ownership of school from the enterprises to hand over to the administration of local government. Hence, Dongqi Secondary School changed to a school of Mianzhu City from self-established school of Dongfang Steam Turbine Works. Although the school is no longer under the administration of Dongfang Steam Turbine Works, the school insists on the policy of giving priority to serving the students from the enterprise, on the other hand it is expanding the enrollment locally constantly. There are 14 teaching classes of junior high school and 9 classes for senior students and the total number of the students is 891 before the earthquake.
The provincial key school went through fatal hits because of May 12. heavy earthquakes!! All building collapsed and the teaching body suffers heavy losses, 14teachers died in an accident including 1 teacher of a special classification, 4 teachers with senior titles 6 teachers with intermediate titles and 3 teachers with elementary titles. In addition, 6 teachers are injured. By June 6, the number of deaths is 210,with 24 persons missing and 58 injured.
After the earthquake occurred, the school did its very best to evacuates surviving teachers and students actively, on the other hand, the whole staff rescues the buried teachers and students actively. With the aid of the factory, the students have been transferred to Deyang Gymnasium and Dongqi Resin Subsidiary Factory in batches at first. Then the work of the school is divided into three parts. First, rescue the buried teachers and students. Second, manage and evacuate surviving students, assign safely them to their parents or relatives Third, figure out the number of casualties and console the relatives of the victims.
Though we have encountered so serious a loss, the strong-minded of teachers and students of Dongqi Secondary School will not fall down. Thanks to the support from Deyang Municipal Bureau of Education and Deyang No. Three Middle School, We have established the Deyang- Dongqil Tent Secondary School on the campus of Deyang No. Three Middle School. On May 21, the surviving students of Senior Three were encouraged to be the first ones to resume classes.
At present, with the aid and support of the various circles of society, and supported by municipal bureau of education of Deyang, a new movable school with materials made of board are under construction; the work of resuming classes of other grades is in tense preparing.
In future, we hope to follow Dongfang SteamTurbine Works closely in an attempt to rebuild a new Dongqi Secondary School in Deyang. The new school will carry on planning and design with the scale of 48 teaching classes according to the standard of high school of national-level for a model school!
