Fang Rong, 29, is the headmaster of Hope primary school of Luotian County, her alma mater. Born in a poverty-stricken region, Fang Rong was a left-behind girl. Thanks to the Hope Project and people's aids, she succeeded in graduating from a secondary normal school. To help more children and repay people's kindness, she decided to be a teacher at her alma mater. In spite of the austere way of life, Fang shouldered her responsibility from various aspects. Her students not only love class activities she holds, but also come to her for heart-to-heart talks, for they share the same feelings of being left-behind children. Fang's endeavors were awarded by authorities and were promoted as the headmaster in 2018. She has a tighter schedule after taking office, for she hopes more children in the rural areas will be benefit from educational development. (Xinhua)
