Shanghai Foreign Language School (SFLS, Chinese: 上海外国语学校) is a secondary school based in Shanghai, China. It is not a traditional 'language school' as in schools delivering only language teaching. It is a full-time high school providing education to students aged from 12-15 (junior high school) and 15-18 (senior high school). Foreign language teaching is traditionally a specialty.
Shanghai Foreign Language School (SFLS), affiliated with the Shanghai International Studies University (SISU), is a seven-year boarding school located to the northeast of Shanghai. It covers an area of 33 mu, with the total construction area of 22,508 square meters. SFLS was established in 1963, and reports directly to the Chinese Ministry of Education.

What we possess, if this is true, are the fragments of a conceptual scheme, parts of which now lack those contexts from which their significance derived. We possess indeed simulacra of morality, we continue to use many of the key expressions. But we have—very largely if not entirely—lost our comprehension, both theoretical and practical, of morality.”
—Alasdair Chalmers MacIntyre (b. 1929)
“In truth, the legitimate contention is, not of one age or school of literary art against another, but of all successive schools alike, against the stupidity which is dead to the substance, and the vulgarity which is dead to form.”
