Who knows Mu's special education school in Pingxiang County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province?

If the disabled are the vulnerable group of human beings, then the blind are the most vulnerable group. Because, in their life journey, they are surrounded by darkness, and they don't know there is light?

In order to help the blind solve this problem, the special education school founded by Mu, a blind farmer in Zhai Dongxin Village, Pingxiang County, Hebei Province, has brought a glimmer of hope for the blind to break through the darkness and move towards the light.

165438+1On the afternoon of October 24th, the reporter came here to interview Mu, then the principal of a special education school. He told reporters that he overcame many difficulties to set up this school in order to help the blind overcome the existing mental, life and intellectual obstacles. Lay a foundation for the blind to seek self-care and self-reliance.

To this end, Mu Mengjie provides acupuncture, massage, playing and singing at school. In the past seven years, nearly 200 special education students from rural areas have embarked on the right path and become real people. Because they learned "survival skills" and mastered "one skill" here. In the past, some people despised them and thought they were useless because they couldn't see or do it. Now they have become popular people in society-a self-reliant person-by studying for further study, developing their intelligence and releasing their potential. In this school, two graduates were detained to teach because of the lack of special education teachers. Other graduates have basically found jobs, some earn more than 1000 per month, and some start their own businesses as small bosses.

Speaking of these things related to the future and destiny of students, Mu just fulfilled the original intention of establishing Pingxiang County Special Education School at that time, and he was particularly happy! So, he was very happy to introduce me to his experience in running a school in recent years:

-running a school should have the spirit of never giving up. Mu Mengjie, who was blind because of optic atrophy since childhood, was exiled at the age of 13 because he was unwilling to endure the insults of healthy people. In 14, he learned from his teacher, played the piano, sang and asked for advice, and accumulated millions of wealth. It is a good thing to set up a school for the blind now, but it has been criticized by some people. Some people say that he wants to make money by running a school; Some people accuse him of running a school for the blind, which is impossible to succeed. Therefore, the school submitted for approval from 1997, and it was not until 1999 that it was officially allowed to break ground. During this period, Mu Mengjie also encountered some problems such as insufficient funds for the establishment of the school, which were overcome by him with amazing perseverance. Looking back now, he sarcastically said that without the spirit of giving up and resisting all kinds of pressures, the school for blind children with an investment of 6.5438+0.25 million yuan and an area of 654.38+0.5 mu would not have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and I am afraid I would not be the principal of this school.

-Pay attention to ways and means in teaching. Mu told reporters that Pingxiang County Special Education School is a full-time boarding private aided school. In addition to recruiting blind children, we also recruit sound children to school. Since the school was opened in 2000, most blind children come from rural areas and live in a closed environment for a long time. Many blind children can only crawl around when they first enter school, and some are almost 20 years old and can't walk with chopsticks. In order to change this situation as soon as possible and promote the development of teaching along the normal track, Mu, after some hard thinking, gathered two blind children and six healthy students together so that they could communicate and learn from each other. When he put forward this idea at the teacher's regular meeting, it was recognized by everyone. Therefore, he named this activity "2+6 activities of enjoying colorful sunshine in the same blue sky". This is a brand-new special education method. This activity is held every Wednesday afternoon in the third class. Two blind children and six healthy students form a group. The names of the groups are celebrities or influential people around Xingtai, such as "Guo Shoujing Group" and "Bian Que Group". Through various forms of entertainment measures such as singing contest, intelligence quiz, washing, reading, etc., blind children and healthy students can feel the truth that "walking into the special education door is a family" and "holding hands is a brother and sister", so as to dispel the psychological obstacles such as inferiority and loneliness of blind children and achieve the purpose of developing intelligence and learning to communicate. At present, this activity is deeply loved by children.

-based in Pingxiang, facing the whole country. After several years of accumulated experience in running a school, Mu, 43, has a grand goal, that is, to base himself on Pingxiang, recruit students for the whole country, and turn Pingxiang County Special Education School into a training center for the blind. He told reporters that the school has now enrolled blind students in Heilongjiang Province, the oldest being 35 years old, and blind volunteer teachers in Chongqing. His name is Wang Weiming. He is 5 1 year old. He used to be a middle school teacher. At the age of 47, he lost his sight because of a sudden eye disease. He learned through the Braille website that Mu Mengjie was deeply moved by running a school for the blind, so he signed up as a volunteer to teach English and microcomputer courses here. He said that he would work with Mu to build the first rural special education school in China into a brand school with high taste and scale.

-I hope that public and private enterprises will be treated equally. From 65438 to 0986, rich Mu married Cao, a healthy rural girl who actively courted in Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang City, and could have lived a happy life. However, he overcame all kinds of obstacles and established a special education school so that the disabled blind children in rural areas would not go back. I am the headmaster and my wife is the administrator. Nearly 500 students in the school, including more than 40 blind children, will post about 40 thousand yuan every year. With the gradual expansion of the school scale, the number of students has increased year by year, and the financial deficit of the school has also increased year by year. To this end, he called on both private and private schools to enjoy the policy of "two exemptions and one subsidy" like public schools, especially private special education schools, which should be supported by the state.
