You wouldn't typically picture a
school being
This empty, but
This one in
rural Youyang County, near Chongqing in inland China, is so empty it
only has two
students and one teacher.
The teacher in charge, 53-year-old Yang Jinhua, has taught for nearly 35 years in the village elementary
school since he was 18.
Despite the tiny attendance, the
school has remained opened in part because of Yang's dedication to it, according to the
Chongqing Morning Post. Yang has refused jobs from principals in other counties, town centers and even corporations.*
