深化合作，情系犹他：王广发总校长致欢迎辞
王府学校深耕中美教育互联互通二十余载，学术成果斐然，毕业生80%以上进入美国高等学府深造，其中不乏常春藤盟校的杰出学子。
针对未来的合作，王广发总校长现场提出了两项设想：
推动“姊妹校”共建：倡议由犹他州教育部门对接一所当地优质公立学校，与北京王府学校缔结为姊妹学校，并计划邀请犹他州前任及现任州长共同见证签约仪式。
升级常态化青年交流：在过去八年持续开展中美学生夏令营的基础上，进一步拓展初中、高中的深度交换生项目，让双向交流走向制度化、常态化。
王广发总校长还向外宾介绍了法政集团的办学与产业版图——目前集团在全国拥有25,000名在校生，在海南布局了国际化学校和医疗与科研机构。他鼓励两国的优秀高中生未来投身生物医药等前沿科技研究，将个人成长融入社会发展的伟业中。

文化共鸣，历史纽带：陈尔刚教授分享中美教育交流感悟
在致辞中，陈尔刚教授不仅赞扬了中国教育的发展，更通过华工与横跨北美大铁路以及孙中山与犹他州的革命足迹两段历史故事，唤起了现场中美师生强烈的文化共鸣。陈博士指出，犹他州人口虽仅有300多万，但却是全美学习中文人数最多、普及度最高的州之一。这种深厚的中文教育底蕴，为两地青年心与心的沟通奠定了最坚实的基石。在此次交流中，王府学子展现出的流利、地道的英语沟通能力与大方自信的国际化素养，给陈尔刚教授和代表团成员留下了深刻的印象。对此，陈教授现场给予了高度赞赏，并借此向随行的美国学生们提出了期许：“王府学校同学们的英文表达极其出色。我希望当中国师生代表团下一次到访犹他州时，你们也能用同样标准、流利的中文为中国朋友做校园导览！”

语言桥梁，外交视野：衡孝军执行总校长分享教学感悟
衡孝军校长回忆起他陪同中国驻美大使崔天凯一行访问犹他州的难忘经历。在杨百翰大学，美国大学生用流利的中文进行提问；在Cascade小学，年仅7岁的美国孩童用纯正的中文自如交流——这极大得益于犹他州领跑全美的“中文全沉浸式教学项目”（Dual Language Immersion）。衡孝军校长表示，语言的尽头是理解。他建议未来双方学校可以通过寄宿家庭（Homestay）、语言互助伙伴（Language Partners）等更贴近生活、更有烟火气的方式深化交流，让中美两国民间友谊的火炬在年轻一代手中代代相传。

课堂体验，文化共振：让友谊在笔墨与互动间深化
结语：三十而立，携手共进
June 2026 – Beijing Royal School (BRS) welcomed a delegation of students, teachers, and parents from Utah, USA. The visit marked the first Utah student delegation to BRS since the pandemic, as well as the first American delegation to the school following the China-U.S. presidential meeting in May 2026.
Youth at the Heart of Bilateral Relations
BRS firmly believes that young people are the future of China-U.S. relations, and that language and culture serve as bridges between hearts. This exchange stands as a vivid testament to that belief.
Symposium Highlights Shared Vision and Historical Resonance
During the symposium, BRS Principal Wang Guangfa affectionately referred to Utah as his “second hometown” and stated, “The foundation of China-U.S. friendship lies in the people, and the hope for the future rests with the youth.” He reviewed BRS’s over two decades of commitment to fostering educational connectivity between China and the United States, proposing two initiatives: the establishment of sister-school partnerships and the upgrading of regular youth exchange programs. He also encouraged young people from both countries to engage in cutting-edge fields such as biomedicine.
Professor Chen Ergang, the U.S. delegation leader, evoked deep cultural resonance by sharing two historical narratives: the role of Chinese laborers in building the North American transcontinental railroad, and Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary footprints in Utah. He highly commended the fluent and authentic English of BRS students and expressed his hope that, in the future, American students could visit China with equally fluent Chinese.
BRS Executive Principal Heng Xiaojun, drawing on his extensive experience as a senior diplomat, shared insights on the vitality of Utah’s “Chinese Immersion Program” and proposed deepening people-to-people exchanges through more intimate, everyday forms of engagement, such as homestay arrangements and language partnership programs.
Cultural Workshops and a Milestone Anniversary
Traditional cultural workshops in calligraphy and martial arts brought students from both countries closer together. As BRS approaches its 30th anniversary, this visit reflects three decades of international education and deepening China-U.S. people-to-people exchanges. BRS remains committed to the belief that education knows no borders and will continue to foster cross-cultural understanding with global partners.
