After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, Tianjin Nankai High School was heavily damaged by Japanese air raids. Many students and teachers fled to southwestern China. Many went to Chongqing, and joined Nanyu Middle School, while others went to Zigong and joined Shuguang High School, another high school under Zhang Boling's management. In December 1938, Nanyu Middle School changed its name to (Private) Chongqing Nankai Secondary School. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, its name was changed to Chongqing No. 3 Secondary School. In the 1980s, it reverted to the name Chongqing Nankai Secondary School.
