History

[edit]

The High School Affiliated to Minzu University of China traces its origins back to the Mongolian and Tibetan School,[1] established in 1913. The school has produced many prominent figures, including former Vice President Ulanhu and renowned poet Guo Xiaochuan. Chairman Mao Zedong and Premier Zhou Enlai showed significant care for the school, personally meeting with student representatives. Former Premier Wen Jiabao wrote a dedication for the school's 95th anniversary. Various Party and state leaders have supported and visited the school. On the occasion of its centenary, President Xi Jinping acknowledged the school's contribution to nurturing numerous outstanding talents from ethnic minorities.

The predecessor of the High School Affiliated to Minzu University of China was the Mongolian and Tibetan School, established in 1913. It was renamed the Mongolian and Tibetan Specialized School in 1918, and in 1929, it was renamed the Mongolian and Tibetan School of the Mongolian and Tibetan Commission in Beiping. From 1937 to 1949, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was renamed the National Beiping Mongolian and Tibetan School. In 1950, it was renamed the Mongolian and Tibetan School. In 1951, the school was named the High School Affiliated to the Central University for Nationalities. During the Cultural Revolution, the school was renamed Beijing No. 160 High School. In 1978, it was restored to its original name. In 1993, it was renamed the High School Affiliated to Minzu University of China.
