Daegu Gyeongseo Middle School Wins Grand Prize at "Beautiful School" Awards

Daegu Gyeongseo Middle School (Principal Park Misuk) announced that it received the Grand Prize at the 26th Beautiful School Awards Ceremony, which was held at Namseoul University on December 17, 2025.

The "Beautiful School Award" is hosted by the Beautiful School Movement Headquarters and sponsored by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Environment, and city and provincial offices of education. Its purpose is to discover and spread outstanding educational cases nationwide that have transformed schools into more beautiful and enjoyable places for learning.

Daegu Gyeongseo Middle School is holding an award ceremony for the Beautiful School Award.

Founded in 1969, Gyeongseo Middle School has operated the "DAH Project Class" since 2015 under the school slogan, "Gyeongseo People with DAH! Embrace the World." The goal is to nurture creative, convergent, future-oriented global talents equipped with Dream, Ability, and Humanity.

The "DAH Project Class" is an integrated curriculum project that is reorganized around core topics and themes for each grade. It is designed to help students extend what they learn in class to actions in their daily lives and local communities.

For first-year students, the "Eoullim Project" has been continuously implemented to prevent school violence, resulting in the school being selected as an excellent school for school violence prevention for five consecutive years. For second-year students, the "Sustainable Environment Project" has been systematically promoted as part of ecological transition education. As a result of ongoing practical, experience-based environmental education connected to the curriculum, the school was designated as an Excellent Environmental Education School by the Ministry of Environment in 2025.

Gyeongseo Middle School received the Grand Prize at the 26th Beautiful School Awards Ceremony in recognition of its outstanding case of stably operating student-led inquiry and practice-based project classes, thereby leading qualitative growth in school education.

Principal Park Misuk stated, "We will continue to systematically and sustainably promote project-based classes in connection with the Daegu Future School curriculum, not only within the school but also together with the local community. I would like to thank everyone who participated in our educational activities, and we will do our best to continue building a dignified and beautiful school."
