School thrives after teacher returns

Liu Rongzhi, a 58-year-old teacher at a private primary school in Daping village, South China’s Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, teaches a lesson to his students, Sept 20, 2011. Liu started working at the school as a teacher in 1975 before moving on to find other work in 1982. The school went without a teacher during this time, until, in 1992, Liu re-founded the school because students had been forced to study at remote schools or drop out. The school now has 61 students and three grades. [Photo/Xinhua]
