The academic environment at Yanping is strong,
college-oriented, and somewhat traditional. The School is a
"Complete High School," which offers both the junior-high and
senior-high programs. Currently the school has junior-high and
senior-high classes. The total enrollment is about 2700 students. There are around 134 faculty members.
After the first year in senior high, the students are required to choose between two fields of study: humanity or science, with four specialized areas. Most subjects are compulsory. The students may also take elective classes in the Arts, Social Studies and Science.
We have a five day school week. Regular classes start at 8:00
a.m. and usually ends at 5:40 p.m.. Most of the students join sports activities ( basketball, volleyball, track and field, etc.) or cultural activities (orchestra, drama, English conversation, fine arts, computer, etc.) Our school has had students achieve city and national recognition for their effort in these clubs. Club activities play an important role in our program in that the students can pursue their creativity and other abilities as well as promote their physical and mental health. The school also holds various events every season. The school festival in November is the biggest of all.
The nine-period school day begins at 8:00 a.m. and ends at 5:40 p.m. Eight periods are devoted to academic course work and one period is designated for student activities and activity-related course work.
