Chenchen learned that more than 200 years ago, a young pastor, Usher· Arnold and his 24-year-old wife and a few protégés traveled thousands of miles from the European continent to this small town in Connecticut, and he vowed to cultivate more upright, kind, responsible, and learned talents for society and the country through soul-touching education. A prominent local lawyer, moved by the spirit of the Reverend Arnold, donated a manor house in the countryside to them to build a school that would provide the most sophisticated and rigorous education for the local aristocratic white boys.

Reverend Arnold experimentally combined religious, academic, and romantic ideals to establish an otherworldly, non-seeking liberal arts education system through a Christian-style home school, which the great pastor gave to the school with the motto "Let us learn on earth, and knowledge will continue in heaven." In addition to religious courses, the school also attaches great importance to the humanities, including Latin, Greek, and philosophy, and at the same time, sports and artistic education are also placed in a very important position, with the aim of training students to become gentlemen with a high degree of inner moral and spiritual qualities.

Pastor Arnold believed that if a person was to remain pure in spirit, he and his disciples worked hard to make the school a sacred home that was in harmony with nature, as it was to grow up closer to the mountains, rivers, earth, trees, and ......flowers, and at the same time to isolate themselves from the hustle and bustle of the world. This tradition has continued for more than 200 years, and the area of School A has expanded from 50 acres to a campus of more than 1,000 acres. During World War II, more than 100 of the white young people of School A fought for world peace, and the school built a cemetery for them in a vacant lot on the back mountain.

In the mid-twenties of the twentieth century, schools began to accept people of color, in the early seventies, they began to admit civilian students, and in the early seventies, they began to admit the first female students......

Chenchen listened quietly to the introduction of the senior, and he found that the school's step by step journey towards democracy, freedom and tolerance was so similar to the progress and development of the United States.

During the "Gilded Age (the end of the Civil War until the beginning of World War I)" and beyond, the educational philosophy of the Reverend Arnold was supported by most of the political and business families in New England, who sent their young children to study in the "Gilded Age" and beyond. Year after year, countless political, business, and cultural elites have gone out of School A.

In order to ensure the highest level of high-quality educational resources, to give the greatest care and cultivation to each student in the school, in the past two hundred years, the school has not expanded its scale, and has always maintained the number of students in grades eight to twelve, about 550 students per year, and it is precisely for this reason that the conditions for school A to recruit students have become extremely harsh, and at the same time, the tuition fee is surprisingly expensive.

Chenchen also learned that the teachers of the school are people who truly love students and are willing to dedicate their lives to students. The campus is dotted with a number of quaint and eclectic cottages that house faculty and staff. Nearly 100 faculty members live on campus throughout the year, and even on weekends and breaks, they are willing to spend time with their students for research discussions, individual tutoring, and often even invite students to their homes for dinner.

Today, the oldest teacher on campus is over 90 years old, and he has been working as a trainee teacher at A since he left Harvard University at the age of 23, where he has spent more than 60 years, and just a few years ago, he was still teaching and researching.

The school crest depicts a pelican pecking a piece of meat from its chest to feed its youngsters, a symbol of the sacrifices teachers are willing to make for their students.

After listening to the introduction of the senior, Chenchen couldn't help but be full of heartfelt love and pride in his school.

Chen Chen looked at the Yi Ting beside him, his face was also a rare look of reverence, he whispered to Chen Chen: "The president of our student union, he is so handsome, I have never seen such a handsome boy, I feel as if I have been bent by him!" ”

Chen Chen wrinkled his brows and looked at the naïve Yiting, shook his head and said, "You are so avant-garde in your thinking, does your mother know?" ”
