GuangMing XiaoXue
(光明 小学),
This is a rebuilt school. Once there were
only a few rooms. Can you believe that we had half a day of school until I was
in 5th grade. Today, I connected with my niece’s 3rd
grade teacher. My niece went to the same elementary school as me. It is amazing to
see how 3rd graders learn around the globe. When I was in
school, English didn’t start until I was in 6th grade. But now,
Chinese kids study English when they are in kindergarten. 
By the name itself, you may figure out that the school ranks pretty high in terms of achievement. In each city, there are few great public high schools, where the 8th grade students actually have to take a test to get in. It requires serious studying. Too often, I hear my friends in China to complain about the homework. Many students finish five to six hours of homework each night. When I went to school here, middle school was on the south side and high school was on the north side. Today, the campus only has high school.
High school only is three years in China.
Did you have to do the same amount of homework as the schools do now?
