At the opening ceremony of Shanghai Hongrun Boyuan School on the afternoon of August 31, many outstanding SHBS students got on the stage in turn to receive awards along with scholarships. Among all the awarded candidates, the most shining ones were the winners of the Founders Award. 

SHBS Founders Award is to recognize students who have excellent performances on all fronts and have brought wide positive influence in the school or the community. All applicants are required to have a top 10% GPA of their respective grades in the previous academic year and get straight As in all subjects. They must also shoulder at least one leading position in extracurricular activities (e.g. ASB position, club president, or organizer of a school-wide event, etc.), and receive high praise for their work.

They work very hard and are highly self-disciplined and confident. 

With great passion and love, they are committed to improving themselves and helping others in the community. 

With great integrity, moral sense, and strong academic performance, they forge ahead with a low profile. 

They have achieved excellence with hard work, and they have interpreted responsibility with dedication.

He is Hanxiao Cai, winner of this year's "Distinguished Founders Award".

SHBS attaches great importance not only to the students' academic progress, but also to the development of their comeprehensive skills and the cultivation of their sense of responsibility. The reknowned 17-year-old  group purchase leader Hanxiao Cai, who helped his compound purchase supplies during the lockdown in Shanghai, is not a rare case. His classmates had also demonstrated similar commitment and courage. During the epidemic, Sean Xu and his friends launched the Guardian Program and helped more than 3,000 people get the medicines they need during the lockdown. Charlotte Li took the lead in launching an online charity fair to transform the creative talents of her friends into commodities, to raise money for the "Pearl Retrieval" program, and to help poor children in mountainous areas realize their educational dreams...

SHBS is committed to cultivating "Chinese citizens who can integrate into and illuminate the world", and keeps practicing the philosophy that "education is to make people better". All these have been put into practice step by step, and are demonstrated in the vision and sense of responsibility of SHBS students. We will keep learning and improving ourselves and contributing our share to the development of the education in China.
