After Li Jianping sat down, he took out a tissue and wiped the sweat off his head before speaking again.
"Hey, what else can I do here? Just to report my work to you!" Li Jianping opened the folder on the table and began to prepare for the report. "I have three things to report to you."
"The first thing is that the volunteer applications for this batch of senior high school graduates have been completed. This includes the first, second and third batches of undergraduates as well as higher vocational colleges. All have been completed."
In this year's college entrance examination, Ruxu No. 2 Middle School's results were quite good.
78 students passed the first-class admission, 233 students passed the second-class admission, and 168 students passed the third-class admission. This number is considered good no matter where you put it. So this year, Ruxu No. 2 Middle School also paid special attention to the work of students in filling out their applications.
Wang Hongwen nodded. "The volunteer application process must be serious and rigorous! I stressed in several meetings last year that our teachers must give students correct advice and cannot be ambiguous or vague! But what was the result? Many students were rejected."
"One of them was even rejected by a top-ranked student! What is this? This is blatant irresponsibility! These students have spent twelve years of hard work to get to this point. How can we be worthy of them by doing this? We must learn from this lesson!"
Seeing this, Li Jianping also hurriedly said, "Don't worry! After you mentioned this matter in the meeting some time ago, I specifically reminded you again, and when the senior high school graduates return to school to fill in their applications, Director Sun and I will be on site to monitor them! There will be no problems this time!"
Although Li Jianping was sometimes a little off-key, Wang Hongwen believed that Li Jianping was extremely serious and responsible in his work. So when Li Jianping said this, Wang Hongwen also expressed his approval of what he said.
"What is the second thing?" Wang Hongwen asked.
When talking about the second thing, Li Jianping's face immediately showed excitement.
"Principal, let me tell you, this second thing is the real good thing!" Li Jianping said excitedly as he took out a few sheets of paper from a folder, pulled them out, and handed them to Wang Hongwen who was sitting across the desk.
Wang Hongwen took the papers and began to examine them carefully.
Seeing Wang Hongwen looking at it, Li Jianping began to introduce it to him, "The enrollment of the new class of freshmen has been successfully completed! This time, our enrollment of freshmen is much better than last year!"
As mentioned before, there are currently three provincial demonstration high schools in Ruxu, namely Ruxu Middle School, Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, and Ruyin Middle School.
Of course, although the teaching quality of Ruxu No. 2 High School and the number of students who pass the college entrance examination every year are increasingly approaching the perennial third place, and there are rumors that Ruxu No. 2 High School may be upgraded to a provincial model high school next year, but after all, hasn’t it yet been upgraded to a provincial model high school?
Therefore, at present, Ruxu Second High School is still only considered to be below provincial level, half a step away from provincial level.
Therefore, the high schools with strong capabilities at present are the three provincial demonstration high schools and Ruxu No. 2 High School, which is still considered a municipal demonstration high school and is half-provincial.
Putting aside the two strongest provincial demonstration high schools, Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, Ruyin Middle School and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, as the third and fourth oldest, are often the most competitive in the competition for freshmen every year.
The students with the best qualities usually choose Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School.
However, the inferior students will generally waver between Ruyin Middle School and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School.
In the past, as long as students were sure that they could not get into Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, they would generally choose Ruyin Middle School without hesitation, because it was the best high school in Ruxu, second only to Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School.
But in recent years, as Ruxu No. 2 Middle School has been catching up, the teaching quality of Ruxu No. 2 Middle School is not much different from that of Ruyin Middle School. The only difference is the title of a provincial model high school.
In addition, Ruxu No. 2 Middle School also has an advantage - geography.
One of the main reasons why many students are unwilling to go to Ruxu’s third high school, Ruyin Middle School, and choose to go to the second-rate Ruxu No. 2 Middle School is because Ruxu No. 2 Middle School is located in the urban area and has convenient transportation.
Ruyin Middle School is located in an ordinary township, and its transportation cannot be compared with that of Ruxu No. 2 Middle School which is located in the urban area.
Moreover, in the past two years, as the teaching conditions of Ruxu No. 2 Middle School and the number of students who have reached the undergraduate entrance examination have become better and better, more and more freshmen in the first year of high school will first consider Ruxu No. 2 Middle School rather than Ruyin Middle School when choosing a high school, even if they cannot be admitted to Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School.
"We have snatched a lot of students from Ruyin Middle School during this year's freshman recruitment!" Li Jianping said excitedly, "Thanks to the efforts of our admissions office teachers, even several students whose scores were high enough to enter Ruxu Middle School chose to study at our No. 2 Middle School."
Li Jianping was introducing things nonstop, while Wang Hongwen was listening and looking at the documents in his hands attentively.
After a long while, Wang Hongwen put down the documents in his hand, looked at Li Jianping, and smiled sincerely, "Not bad, you did a great job! This recruitment work is extremely important. If you do it well, you can basically complete half of the work for the next three years!"
It's no wonder that Wang Hongwen is so happy. For a student with good grades, it means that he/she has a great chance of going to college in three years.
It doesn't mean that students with poor grades will definitely not be able to go to college. After all, Wang Hongwen and his team have seen many such examples. But it is undeniable that students with good grades are more likely to go to good schools than students with poor grades.
In previous years, when it came to the high school enrollment stage, No. 2 Middle School couldn’t even get a seat at the table and could only watch from the sidelines as the three provincial model high schools in Ruxu competed for the delicious food.
After the three provincial model high schools have finished eating, it will be the turn of the remaining municipal model high schools, led by No. 2 Middle School and No. 3 Middle School, to grab the leftovers.
Although this year, Ruxu No. 2 Middle School still cannot beat Ruxu Middle School and Ruxu No. 1 Middle School, which are the top two, but at least it can sit at the table and eat, and compete with Ruyin Middle School, right?
"Although the enrollment work has been completed well, after the freshmen enter the school, various logistical work and teacher assignments must be done well and cannot be neglected!" Wang Hongwen reminded.
While listening, Li Jianping took out a pen and wrote down everything Wang Hongwen said. He then took the time to implement the work before reporting to school for the first year of high school.
Wang Hongwen was in a very good mood at the moment, and when he spoke to Li Jianping, his tone became more relaxed. "Okay, we've finished talking about the first two things. What's the third thing?"
