談到啟明星獲獎，Williams校長說：

啟明星的教育事業并非以追求排名為動力。相反，我們專注于為學生培養發展智力和道德品質的環境，為他們賦能，使他們能夠為身邊社區和更廣闊的世界帶來積極的影響。這種教育路徑可能并不總是符合傳統的排名標準，但它構成了我們教育理念的核心。當然，如果它獲得大家認可，這也是值得慶祝的——更重要的是，這是讓我們與其他志同道合的教育機構進行有意義對話的機會。

雖然我們感謝外界的認可，但它不會成為我們前路的束縛。我們依然致力于自己的使命：教育學生的良好品格，促進社會創新，培養我們的學生成為變革的推動者。我們的社區——家長、學生和教職員工——的不懈努力和奉獻精神才真正定義了我們的成功。

作為中國第一所在全學齡段開設社會創新項目的學校，生動、鮮活的學習故事每天都在這里發生。歡迎關注！

The Forum invited leading academics including Nobel laureates in Economics, Physiology or Medicine, Chemistry and Physics — the world's top scholars, and dozens of well-known international or private schools from all over the country to discuss the trend and future of international education, and share ideas and practices for the cultivation of innovative talents.

Daystar is the first school in China to create a K-12 Social Innovation Program to cultivate students to be social innovators - able to deeply care, connect and take practical actions to solve social and environmental problems using novel solutions in communities and beyond. Daystar has created a unique educational model through the holisticSocial Innovation Curriculum, Social Innovation Program Resources and Social Innovation Events,where students feel empowered to act with a purpose to apply their learning to create a more equitable, sustainable and united world, and in doing so complement their learnings in other areas of our curriculum.

Daystar's continuous efforts and achievements in social innovation education, academic achievements, high-quality teacher team...were appreciated by the Nobel Innovation Forum, and was listed in the lists and received the award on the spot.

Executive Head of Schools, Daniel Williams was invited to deliver a speech on Cultivating a Culture of Social Innovation. He introduced the unique history of Daystar, the origins and practices of implementing Social Innovation Program within a values led community. Speaking with passion on the need for our students and our communities to jointly address both local and global issues using novel approaches, he made a deep impression on the audience.

While talking about Daystar’s recognition by KingLead, Mr. Williams said,

Our journey at Daystar is not driven by a pursuit of rankings. Instead, we focus on creating an environment that nurtures intellectual and moral development, empowering our students to positively impact their communities and the wider world. This approach may not always align with traditional ranking criteria, but it forms the core of our educational philosophy. If it results in recognition, then that's to be welcomed and celebrated. Being recognized provides us not just with a reason to celebrate, but more importantly, to engage in meaningful dialogue with other like-minded educational institutions. It allows us to share and learn from others who see innovation, rather than adherence to tradition alone, as a pathway to educational excellence.

While we appreciate the external acknowledgment, it does not dictate our path forward. We remain committed to our mission: to educate for character, foster social innovation, and prepare our students to be agents of change.The relentless effort and dedication of our community—parents, students, and staff—truly define our success.”

As the first school in China to offer Social Innovation Program throughout K-12, vivid learning stories happen at Daystar every day. We welcome you to follow us!
