今年6月，美国布什总统亲笔签发2007年度“总统教育奖”，这是美国政府颁给全国中、小学生的最高奖项。在这100名获奖者中，年龄最小的是浙江瑞安籍少年陈路，今年12岁。
校园里的小明星
陈路的爷爷奶奶是土生土长的浙江瑞安人，其父母在80年代末留学美国，毕业后分别在美国大公司担任高级工程师。陈路1995年3月出生于美国俄亥俄州德顿市。由于父母工作繁忙，又常国外出差，所以陈路未足九个月就被断奶送回原籍让爷爷奶奶抚养。小陈路活泼聪明，三岁能背唐诗，四岁学哼瑞安鼓词，五岁能用一口本地话与爷爷对话。后来他父亲陈建伟在越洋电话里说：“儿子回美国快7年了，到现在和我们交流，有时还会插几句逗人的瑞安话，把我们肚子也笑痛了。尽管他是美国小学生，但骨子里是个‘瑞安儿’!”
陈路6岁回美国进入宾夕法尼亚州哈里斯堡小学读书。校长罗纳德教授注重基础教育，经常举办数学速算、马拉松浏览、人文历史朗读等趣味竞赛，陈路每每夺冠，学习兴趣也越来越高，最后被选进重点班。不到两年他名跃全段前三甲，每年的全州小学统考总能折桂，因此从校长到老师，几乎个个都赏识他，同学们都夸他是“校园小明星”。
杂志封面人物
美国小学强调快乐教育，家庭作业少，文体活动与游戏多。陈路博闻强记，理解力很强，又好提问，幸好父母知识面广，对素质教育又懂行，他们把全部的工余时间都用来培养陈路的学习兴趣，让其在玩乐中感悟求知、合作和竞争。爷爷风趣地说：“陈路书包里玩具比书本多，爱玩偏偏玩出了名堂!”父亲鼓励儿子健体训练，打从陈路上小学起，就入了本市篮球与橄榄球俱乐部，每天练习不少于一小时，既练体质，又练意志和毅力，跌跤了、摔伤流血了陈路从来不哭，夜晚或周六，交亲还按陈路的选择让他学练钢琴和小提琴，不惜重金给他请家庭老师。陈路父母深有感触地说，陈路的活动锻练多，不仅学习更加灵活，动手能力也大大加强了，去年7月家中电脑程序坏了，他在父亲指点下动手拆卸了软件，居然修好如初，妈妈乐得直拍手，竖起大拇指夸奖儿子。
陈路从三年级开始经常参加校内外的文艺演出，五年级由校篮球队主力队员升任为队长，在一次全州竞赛会上艰难夺冠，给业界留下深刻印象，被推荐登上美国赫赫有名的《篮球》杂志封面。
因为有颗平常心
陈路的爷爷和奶奶朴实善良，常帮左邻右舍排忧解难，陈建伟夫妇继承了这一传统家风，不仅治学踏实低调，并教育陈路诚恳、勤奋，时时保持一颗平常心。
因为有一颗平常心，陈路与同学、队友以及邻居伙伴都友好相处，乐于助人，所以不管同班或不同班的同学过生日甚或过节，都会邀请他参加，有些家长视他为少儿的楷模，常打电话给他父母，邀请陈路去他们家作客和他们子女结交，以便互相学习共同进步。一位家长说：“陈路成长的背景，是五千年的中华文明啊！”
因为有颗平常心，陈路小小年纪就学会正确对待荣誉。今年6月30日哈里斯小学师生隆重举行毕业典礼，陈路听到他要受表彰的风声，特意恳求父母别去参加，以示独立与自强。典礼上，校长与州官给他颁奖，同学和老师都纷纷向他祝贺。不料他回到家中把书包与奖状一放，不向父母提及这全国最高的“总统教育奖”，管自己练球去了。直至校长登门道贺，并说“总统教育奖”全美只有100名学业优秀、能力过人、素质独特、多才多艺且在校园、社区有特殊贡献的中小学生才能获得，而且一个州上百万学生只能有男女各一人才能获此殊荣，届时还要赴首都华盛顿参加颁奖典礼，奖状与荣誉证书，将由布什总统、教育部长斯佩林斯女士亲笔签署。
今年陈路要上初中了。因其数学特优，学校批准他直跳初三，于是陈路决定利用宝贵的暑假时间多打球、学棋类、练登山，为上初中厉兵秣马。
12-Year-Old Wins President’s Award
By Zhang Yi, Pan Qinyong
Chen Lu, whose family roots are in Rui’an of southern Zhejiang Province, won the President’s Award of Educational Excellence in USA in June, 2007. The 12-year-old is the youngest of the 100 elementary and junior high school awardees.
Star Pupil
Chen’s grandparents were born in Rui’an, Zhejiang. His parents studied in USA in the late 1980s. After graduation, they worked as senior engineers for big corporations in USA. Chen Lu was born in March, 1995. As his parents were busy working and often went away on business trips, Chen was sent back to Ruin when he was just 9 months old. The boy went back to USA at six and went to school in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Thanks to the principal of the school who emphasizes basics of knowledge, various programs are offered at the school to stimulate the interest of pupils. A beneficiary of these programs, Chen became one of the top three students at the school in less than two years. From then on, he was always the top scorer in the statewide test. The principal and teachers at the school appreciated him and his classmates called him the star pupil.
Cover Boy
Chen Lu learns fast and loves to ask questions. Fortunately his parents with their college education background are able to help him cultivate his wide interests and help him learn how to seek knowledge, cooperate and compete. In the school, Chen Lu joined a basketball and football club and trained at least an hour per day. The boy also took piano or violin lessons in evenings or on Saturdays. These extra curricular activities helped him learn better. From third grade on, Chen Lu often took part in school shows and became the school’s basketball team captain when he was at the fifth grade. After the team won a state championship through tough games, his photograph appeared on the cover of Hoops, a famed sports magazine in the USA.
Take Things Easy
Chen Lu’s grandparents are warm-hearted and generous. They help their neighbors at any time. This fine family tradition passed down to Chen Lu’s parents, who in turn have passed it to the young boy.
Chen is a popular boy at the school not because he is a top achiever, but mainly because he is kind-hearted and generous and often helps his classmates.
Chen Lu never takes academic honors too seriously. Before the graduation ceremony on June 30 this year, he learned that he would be receiving an award. To show his independence, he asked his parents not to attend the ceremony. At the ceremony, the principal and the state governor issued the award to him and offered warm-hearted congratulations. His classmates and teachers also congratulated him. Chen came home, put away the satchel and the award, and went out to a training session. He did not mention the award to his parents. His parents did not know about it until the principal came to visit them and offered his congratulations. The principal explained that only 100 elementary and junior high school pupils were awarded for their excellence in academic achievement, talent, capability, and participation in school and community activities as well for their qualities such as high motivation, initiative, integrity, intellectual depth, leadership and/or exceptional judgment. Only one boy and one girl in each state are chosen for the honor. Chen Lu would attend the award ceremony in Washington to receive the trophy and certificate signed by President Bush and Education Secretary Margaret Spellings.
