Students actively participate in the construction of the rule of law
Law popularization is the basic work for comprehensively governing the country according to the law.
General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized at the Central Committee's Work Conference on the Comprehensive Rule of Law that the work of law popularization must be focused and effective. In particular, it is necessary to strengthen the education of the rule of law among young people, and continuously improve the awareness of the rule of law and the quality of the rule of law of all citizens.

In November 2020, the High School Affiliated to Shanghai East China University of Political Science and Law suddenly received a letter of thanks from the Legal Work Committee of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.
It turned out that a proposal of the school’s students was formally adopted by the legislature and written into the "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors."
To this end, the Legal Work Committee of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress praised them for studying and using the law, advising on the rights and interests of young people, and taking the initiative to assume social responsibility in the form of a letter of appreciation.
The legislative suggestions of middle school students were adopted and revised into national regulations, which is rare in the country.

"Regarding Article 116, if the public security organ discovers that the guardian of a minor has committed domestic violence against the minor, it shall be admonished, ordered to pay a deposit and receive family education guidance. For those who refuse to receive family education guidance, The content of the security deposit can be confiscated. In view of the different economic conditions of each minor's family, it is recommended to modify it to mainly educate the guardian in such a situation."
This is the suggestion made by the volunteer team of the Student Affairs Center of the High School Affiliated to East China University of Political Science and Law.
Seeing that their amendments have been taken seriously and adopted, the friends are encouraged: "To participate in the legal amendment to protect themselves, not only sees the deep care of the party, government and all walks of life for minors, but also for personal participation I feel this journey will be unforgettable for a lifetime."

They look and pay attention to social issues around the campus, try to learn and learn to take civic social responsibilities.
For example, they discovered that Niuqiaobang, which is 100 meters away from the school gate, was officially opened and traffic lights were installed at the intersection, but the congestion at the school gate during peak hours did not improve at all, so they wrote a serious investigation report, which was later converted into a CPPCC proposal. .
