On June 29, 2021, Zhang Guimei was awarded the highest honor of the CPC—the July 1st Medal in the Great Hall of the People. This tough, devoted and selfless woman once again came into the publics view.

Born in 1957, Zhang has put down roots and built a life in the frontier for more than 40 years. In 2002, Zhang was a rural teacher in Huaping County in Yunnan. When she went to the mountains to visit her students homes, she found that there were so many girls of school age who could not attend school because of poverty and ignorance. She felt very shocked and confused.

In the end, she made a conclusion that only by providing them with free education could all this be changed. When she first put forward the proposal to build a high school for girls, people around her either thought she had a mental problem or laughed at her for being too unrealistic. However, Zhang Guimei really started to take action. In order to prepare the schools money, she even went to the streets of Kunming to beg and collect donations, but it was far from enough. With the care and attention of the CPC committees and governments at all levels, and the support and help of all sectors of society, Huaping High School for Girls became a reality in August, 2008.

However, half a year after she established the school, nine of its 17 teachers resigned because of the poor conditions. She didnt lose heart. Together with the rest of the teachers, Zhang managed to help all 94 students of the schools first intake be admitted to universities three years later. Due to years of heavy work and stress, Zhang suffers from more than 20 diseases, relying on a lot of medicine every day, and sometimes she feels so painful. But she never gives up. She often says, “People always have to do something while they are alive.” Under her leadership, over the past 12 years, the school has helped more than 1,800 impoverished (赤貧的) girls realize their dreams to further their studies at university, creating an “educational miracle” in the mountains. Through Zhangs tireless efforts, the school has been ranked the citys top school. Now, with great determination and perseverance, she is still striving for an unfulfilled wish—her students can be admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University.

A person devotes all of her energy to one thing—the thing that benefits others. This is already commendable(值得赞扬的)! Zhang Guimei deserves the award! Lets show our respect for teacher Zhang Guimei!
