At the 21st session on September 30, the People's Council of Hoa Binh province approved the investment policy for the Lac Son District Boarding Secondary and High School for Ethnic Minorities project. The project has a total investment of 140 billion VND, of which the project capital comes from the provincial budget (90 billion VND for the 2021-2025 and 2026-2030 periods) and funding from the Vietnam Electricity Group (50 billion VND).
The new school project will be built in Xuat Hoa commune, Lac Son district with a total land area of 4.37 hectares. The project implementation period is from 2024 - 2027; progress is 36 months from the commencement date.
On October 8, reporters were present in Vu Ban town, Lac Son district. When asked, the people and parents were all excited and happy that the Lac Son District Boarding Secondary and High School for Ethnic Minorities is about to be built at a new location. According to observations, the school is currently located in a small alley of Vu Ban town with 2 separate areas (teaching area and boarding area for students).
Ms. Dinh Thi Thanh Tuoi - Principal of Lac Son District Boarding Secondary and High School for Ethnic Minorities said that the school was established in 1995 and is currently located in Vu Ban town, Lac Son district, which is old and degraded. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school has 330 students/11 classes.
According to Ms. Tuoi, the school's campus area is narrow (more than 7,700 m2) with no playground or training ground, causing many difficulties in improving students' physical strength during the learning and training process.
In addition, the school's dormitory, built in the 90s, has deteriorated, many rooms are leaking, water seepage in the walls, weak lighting system... The school campus is divided into two separate areas, causing difficulties in managing and implementing the school's educational activities, student management by the Board of Directors and protecting the facilities...
"The school, teachers, parents and students are very excited when Hoa Binh province approved the investment policy for the project to build a new school, thereby helping students feel secure in studying and teaching" - Ms. Tuoi shared.
Parent Bui Van Dung (born in 1970, Vu Binh commune, Lac Son district) shared that parents are very happy that the government is interested in investing in building a new school, especially for mountainous areas that are still facing many difficulties. Hopefully, the new school will be built soon to have spacious facilities, ensuring better teaching and learning.
Mr. Bui Thanh Tung - Vice Chairman of Lac Son District People's Committee assessed that after completion, Lac Son District Ethnic Boarding Secondary and High School will ensure conditions to meet National standards level I in terms of facilities for teaching, learning and living. At the same time, it will build a green, clean and beautiful pedagogical environment and improve the quality of education, creating conditions for comprehensive development for the school's students.
