Teachers possess a benevolent heart and boundless love. During the critical stage of epidemic prevention and control in the district, under the overall leadership of the District Party Committee and District Government, the education system currently has 75 schools, over 360 testing sites, and nearly 4,000 teachers fighting on the front lines of the third round of nucleic acid testing. Grassroots schools have established frontline anti-epidemic Party branches, hung Party flags in testing rooms, and all Party members wear Party badges, continuously working in the most dangerous and demanding positions. Grassroots leaders and cadres work nearly 12 hours a day, standing firm at their posts. Many frontline teachers volunteered without hesitation—some had just been discharged from the hospital, others had very young children—yet they did not waver and actively applied to join the fight. The hard work and dedication of these teachers fully demonstrate the patriotism, resilience, and commitment of Tiexi educators, who answer the nation's call in times of crisis and are determined to prevail. It also reflects the loyalty to duty, practical responsibility, and tenacious spirit of Tiexi's cadres and teachers.

We believe that with the collective efforts of everyone and the strong support of various social organizations and caring individuals, all cadres and teachers in the Tiexi education system will overcome all difficulties and achieve the final victory against the COVID-19 epidemic.

As Shenyang's epidemic prevention and control efforts enter a critical period, the Shenyang Municipal Education Bureau has called upon all teachers in the city to take swift action, join hands in fighting the epidemic, assist in nucleic acid testing, and has launched an anti-epidemic psychological support hotline for the education system. Relevant leaders are personally overseeing and deploying efforts, working together to combat the epidemic and moving forward with vigilance.

Education Bureau leaders visited the front lines of epidemic response.

With persistently cold weather, to facilitate rapid and smooth testing for the elderly and children, schools have done their utmost to provide the most meticulous service, establishing clear green channels for those aged 70 and above and those aged 6 and below, fully demonstrating care for these special groups. Testing site schools have arranged for the public to queue indoors as much as possible, ensuring one-way flow without crossing or gathering. They have also provided seating and cushions for those undergoing testing, offering comprehensive and thoughtful public services, allowing everyone to feel a sense of warmth during the testing process.

In the face of the epidemic, the teachers of Shenyang Chuying Experimental Primary School have selflessly rushed to the front lines of mass nucleic acid testing, becoming proud volunteers. During Shenyang's difficult times, all teachers have contributed their modest efforts to help their city. We believe that with everyone's efforts, victory over the epidemic is just around the corner!

The leaders and all teachers of Xingtan Middle School Longjianghu Branch immediately immersed themselves in epidemic response work upon receiving the task of conducting nucleic acid testing for district residents. They arrived at school early each day to coordinate with the community, fully implementing all aspects of the work, including personnel arrangements, testing procedures, equipment and supplies preparation, and preliminary site disinfection. They actively and enthusiastically provided warm and thoughtful service to surrounding residents, successfully completing the first round of testing. On January 4, they once again participated in the second round of nucleic acid testing. As of the evening of January 5, together with the subdistrict office, community, health commission, and other departments, the school had completed nucleic acid testing for over 12,000 residents, with daily testing numbers exceeding 4,000 on two separate days.

 

 

During this critical period of the city's fight against the epidemic, less than 24 hours after the completion of the first round of testing, many grassroots Party branches within the Shenyang education system have issued calls to their Party members. Taking Tiexi District as an example, approximately 2,700 school leaders, Party members, and teachers from 77 testing sites and 274 testing stations across the system quickly participated in the second round of testing.

United as one, there is no obstacle too great; hand in hand, there is no mountain too high. We salute every educator fighting on the front lines and thank them for interpreting their original aspirations and missions through their actions, and for demonstrating responsibility and commitment through their dedication. Treating epidemic prevention, control, and response as the most urgent political task, we must make overall plans for epidemic control and routine work, be courageous in taking responsibility and proactive in action, forging ahead together with the heroic people of Shenyang, and go all out to win the battle against the epidemic!
