A performance by students of the school to mark its 50th founding anniversary.

Currently, the school houses 76 staff members and nearly 1,300 students in 30 classes.

After withstanding difficult years during the resistance war against the US, teachers and students of the school have over the years upheld solidarity and improved quality of education and training, which is viewed as a key and long-term strategic task.

In addition to teaching and learning, campaigns on building a friendly school with active students and teachers being role models in ethics, self-learning and innovation, have been effectively carried out to bolster education-training quality and nurture talents.

The rate of good and excellent students ranges between 55 percent and 68 percent per year, while that of students entering universities makes up over 50 percent.

Due attention has been paid to general training, as the school is ranked second or third in Yen Bai in the number of students winning contests at provincial and national levels.
