Chapter 341
Director Lin and Teacher Li Lifang are old classmates. During evening study, I thought about going over to talk to her about what happened today.
It happened that the other head teachers were out making rounds, and Teacher Li Lifang was grading papers. Director Lin walked into the office, pulled up a chair familiarly, and sat across from Teacher Li Lifang. He spoke with a somewhat helpless look on his face:
"Lifang, I'm saying those three in your class are blind. They just walked right into the trap and stupidly asked who should handle it. They didn't even realize they'd fallen into the trap set by others. Are they really top students?"
Teacher Li Lifang shook her head and sighed, "Alas, I've talked to them about this problem many times. Everything else is fine, but I don't know why they've become obsessed with cutting in line! They even cut in line when getting textbooks!"
The girl with short hair is called Huang Yanfang. She has been the top student in our class since freshman year. How can I handle this? The principal has emphasized several times that we must maintain our ranking. How can we maintain our ranking if we treat the top student too harshly?
Director Lin frowned when he spoke of this, then nodded in understanding: "In the past two years, No. 2 Middle School and No. 3 Middle School have both developed rapidly, and we are under a lot of pressure to get into higher education.
Although we have always been at the top of the list in terms of the number of students admitted to universities, this year's provincial top scorer in science is actually from No. 2 Middle School. This is the first time that both top scorers come from our school.
We had originally submitted a report stating that we would be renovating the playground this year, but once the top scorer was lost, the matter was immediately suppressed. If this continues next year, the pool of outstanding students will slowly drain away, making it even harder to obtain resources in the future."
Teacher Li Lifang said helplessly: "That's just how it is. Not only the top scorers, but also the number of students admitted to universities are catching up. So I think, if it's not a particularly serious problem, I will still focus on oral education.
I never expected it to develop to this point and cause such a negative impact. I have an unshirkable responsibility."
Director Lin consoled her, "Don't blame yourself too much. This isn't entirely your fault. It takes time for students to develop good behavior. And kids these days have their own ideas. They might not listen even if you tell them."
Senior year is a critical time. We need to ensure that their grades are not affected and that they recognize their mistakes and don’t make them again.”
Teacher Li Lifang nodded and said, "I've already talked to them separately today. Apart from the queue-jumping issue, I asked Huang Yanfang and Li Junming not to hang out together all the time.
Although their families agreed to their relationship, this is school after all, and it would have a bad influence with so many classmates watching. They admitted their mistakes and had a good attitude. As for the follow-up, I will keep an eye on it."
Director Lin spoke to her for a few more words and returned to the topic of securing the top prize: "I gave the punishment on the spot today without informing you, so don't get any ideas.
After all, with dozens of students looking at me, I need to make a clear statement. As for Su Miao, she was indeed bullied today. She was cut in line and pushed, so it is reasonable for her to ask for an explanation.
Teacher Li Lifang smiled and said, "This is the point you wanted to tell me, right? Are you worried that I might have an opinion of Su Miao? Am I such a petty person?"
"I'm also her chemistry teacher and have always been fond of her. Just talking about what she did and said today, there's nothing wrong with it. The other students' behavior was deviant, and the teacher's lack of strict management is not her fault."
"Okay, okay, I was just saying that. You know Su Miao's grades. All the leaders are keeping an eye on her. She's the top seed for next year's science student. Even the principal said that as long as it doesn't violate the principles, all her teaching plans and requests will be greenlit.
In my opinion, even if it touches on a matter of principle, anything that can be resolved can be resolved for her. Didn't you see how Teacher Wu Jianjun rushed over to question her as soon as he heard the news today?
"Haha, Teacher Wu Jianjun is still as lively as ever. When he won the top spot in the imperial examination, we all thought he would stay in Beijing to work. We didn't expect him to come back to teach at our school. However, he is also the youngest homeroom teacher in our school."
Director Lin didn't quite smile: "Teacher Wu... was also burdened by family matters, otherwise he would have had a better future, which is why the leaders took Su Miao's joining the party so seriously last time.
We must sort out those things clearly to avoid any negative impact on her future development. We can no longer waste talent on such meaningless things."
…
Su Miao ate a little too much for dinner, and halfway through the second self-study session, he felt a stomachache and ran to the toilet to defecate a large amount. On the way back to the classroom, he happened to meet Director Lin coming out of the office.
"Good evening, teacher."
"Yeah, okay."
Listening to Director Lin's cold response, Su Miao thought that what happened today had indeed tricked him, so he said very sincerely: "Teacher, my behavior of arguing with my classmates today was indeed a bit inappropriate.
I should have reported the incident to the teacher first, but arguing in front of so many classmates was a bit too impulsive."
Director Lin looked at Su Miao who was waiting obediently to be lectured. Although he knew that she was still a student, he still wanted to tell her some things that they might not understand.
This place happened to be at a corner, and no one was passing by during evening self-study. Director Lin said, "Student Su Miao, don't worry about what happened today. You didn't do anything wrong.
This matter is over, but I hope you can understand that the school and teachers are full of expectations and dedicated to the cultivation of all students.
Only when schools maintain high-quality teaching results can they receive more educational resource support, and these resources will be used for students.
So sometimes, there is indeed a tendency to favor students with good academic performance. Of course, I'm not saying this is a good thing, but I hope you can understand that schools and teachers also have difficulties."
Su Miao nodded and answered seriously: "Teacher, I understand. Actually, what I did today was not entirely for myself.
During the short few days of living in the school dormitory, the behavior of the three classmates spread among the classmates. Everyone was already under a lot of pressure from studying, and when the incident came out, the annoyance became even stronger.
I know that the leaders and teachers have always taken good care of me, so I was so bold as to ask the teacher to deal with them today. I hope this bad phenomenon can stop here.
My gratitude to the teachers is too much to express with words, so I can only work harder to study and live up to their expectations."
Director Lin nodded with satisfaction. "It's great that you understand, Su Miao. The teachers are all very optimistic about you. During the final sprint of your senior year, just focus on reviewing well. If you have any difficulties, just talk to your homeroom teacher. Okay, let's go back to the classroom."
"Okay, thank you, teacher!"
Director Lin looked at Su Miao's back and thought to himself: He is so talented at such a young age, intelligent and humble, courageous and insightful, and he has a bright future!
