History

edit

The school traces its origins to the former Shuangfeng Academy (双峰书院), founded by the local government in 1760 and would later become the Shuangfeng School in 1905.

In 1905, under the order of Qing dynasty (1644–1911) Emperor Guangxu (1871–1908), the old academy was renamed Shuangfeng Higher School (双峰高等小学堂). Peng Shiyi (彭时绎) was the first supervisor.

In 1941, the school became a middle school.

In March 1950, the school merged with Xiangxiang Second Girls' Vocational School (湘乡第二女子职业学校) to form the Xiangxiang County Second Meddle School (湘乡县立第二初级中学). Peng Xixian (彭希贤) served as its president.

In November 1953, the school was renamed Xiangxiang County First Meddle School (湘乡县立第一初级中学).

In 1956, the school became a high school.

In 2017, Shuangfeng County No. 1 High School ranked at number 389 on the National Top 500 High Schools.[1] In January, the new campus has been basically completed and fully operational.[2]
