Chung Chi’s motto is “In Pursuit of Excellence”. So, what is “excellence”? In short, it refers to progress from continual renovation to constant perfection. To reach it, we must focus on the sense of renovation, which represents a state of never becoming outdated or regressive. Once we deeply engage in academics with perseverance, we will be worthy of being Chung Chi students.
