History

edit

Korean No. 2 Middle School was established in 1962, and received permission to convert from an ordinary middle school to a foreign-language vocational middle school in September 1992. It was the only ethnic vocational middle school in Heilongjiang province.[3] Its conversion into a municipal-level standard school was approved in December 2010.[4]

In 2006, the Heilongjiang College of Education organised computer training for teachers at the school and several other Korean schools in the province.[5] In 2011, the school signed an agreement with the Harbin Tourism Department to train Korean-speaking tour guides.[6]

The No. 2 Korean Middle School is located at 86 Tongjiang Street, Daoli District, in a building constructed in the late 1910s. The same building once housed the city's Jewish Middle School; it is listed by the municipal government as a second-class preserved historical building.[7]
