On June 23, 2024, at 6:57 PM, a results presentation event was held at Fengzhu Junior High School in Gongliao District, New Taipei City, with local officials, relocated teachers, and graduated students returning. The school's unique teaching methods have helped students who had educational challenges gain confidence to move beyond the mountains and onto the next stage of life. Through agricultural education classes, students actively engage in farming activities from planting to harvesting. By sharing their experiences, students like Zhang expressed their fears turning into unique memories, highlighting the impact of hands-on learning. The transformation of students like Zhang was witnessed by her father, a speech-disabled person, using voice-to-text software on a mobile phone to better understand his daughter's progress. Fengzhu Middle School, under the leadership of Principal Chen Honglian, aims to instill in students the appreciation for nature and the ability to experience, appreciate, and cherish hard work firsthand, empowering them to face challenges and grow. The supportive environment for students' growth also included activities like rock climbing to build strength and enhance logical thinking. Former Keelung City Education Bureau Director Liu Meilan praised Principal Chen's nurturing leadership style, attributing the increased confidence in Fengzhu's students to the introduction of external resources, hands-on activities like chicken-raising, and the vital exposure to life beyond the school premises.
