Overview
Nanjing Jinling High School (, or Jin-Zhong/金中 for short) is a public high school located in Gulou District, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China.
History
American missionaries of Methodist Episcopal Church in China founded Fowler Biblical School in 1888 and established its high school branch in 1890. Fowler Biblical School was reorganized as Jinling University (University of Nanking) since 1910 and the high school branch had been therefore called High School Affiliated to Jinling University (金陵大学附属中学) and Jinling High School for short.
In 1937, the school was relocated to Chongqing due to the Second Sino-Japanese War. During the Nanking Massacre, the school's campus was part of the Nanking Safety Zone, where civilians were protected from the slaughter by Japanese troops. The school restored its operation in Nanjing in 1939, which was fully recovered in 1946 after the war.
