1987, No.2 middle school enrolled a small number of music and art students in the general culture class. Since 1992, in order to meet the social demand for high school music art education, special music art classes have been organized, which has made the education with artistic characteristics take the first step of standardization. Over the past 20 years, the school has made useful attempts in the education management of special students, the opening of specialized courses, the relationship between cultural courses and specialized courses, and explored a set of successful experiences, which has won wide acclaim. Many brother schools in and out of the province visited and exchanged views, which were reported many times by China Education News, China Education TV, Guangming Daily, Changjiang Daily, Digest Weekly, Hubei Daily, Hubei TV and other media. In 2004, the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government made a decision to establish Yichang Three Gorges Art High School on the basis of the education of artistic characteristics in Yichang No.2 Middle School.
