History

The school was established in 1928 as a middle school for boys. In 1930, the name was changed from "Common Middle School" (平民中學) to Beiping No. 5 Middle School (北平市立第五中學). It became co-educational in 1968.

Although the school has been on its current location since 1945, the campus was totally renovated during 1991–1993.

In 1998, the middle school part was spun off into an independent school, although it still retains the "No. 5" in name.

Respecting the Teachers, Diligence, Seeking the Truth and Self-reliance (尊师、勤奋、求实、自强).
