Without a house of her own, 63-year-old Zhang Guimei has lived in a student dormitory for the past 12 years.
Zhang is the principal of the Huaping Senior High School for Girls, the country’s first public high school that provides free education for female students, in the city of Lijiang, southwest China’s Yunnan Province.
She has been educating and aiding students in need, most living in isolated and poor areas. The school, led by Zhang, has created a miracle for the girls: 1,804 graduates have been admitted to colleges.
A girl was crying and snuggling in Zhang’s arm. She was immersed in grief over her father’s death. “Don’t cry, sweetheart. Tell me if you have any difficulty,” Zhang said, comforting the girl.
