滔滔黄海滨，千年古镇，人杰地灵；
　　依依运河畔，四星栟中，果硕枝盈。
　　九十多年的团结勤奋，求实创新；九十多年的弦歌不断，薪火相承；九十多年的风雕雨琢，教泽流芳……江苏省栟茶高级中学从最初20余间校舍发展壮大至今，走过了一条艰辛而辉煌的道路。
　　一路上，栟中人风雨兼程，沧桑砥砺；辛勤耕耘，桃李芬芳；筚路蓝缕，杏坛秋实。栟中人用向上的心态、高度的责任、激越的豪情、务实的作风，使教育的理想和理想的教育在心底萌芽，使期望的教育智慧在栟中这片沃土上萌发滋长，一代代“守规矩、肯吃苦”的栟中校友在社会大舞台上充分展示才华，不断创造业绩，成为祖国栋梁，努力实现人生的社会价值和自我价值。
　　感创业之艰辛，慨成功之不易。我们将继续坚持平民教育的办学理念，实施精致管理的办学策略，弘扬校风育人的办学特色，在“止于至善，成于精勤”的新时期校训感召下，继承栟中光荣传统，全面提高教学质量，不断提升办学品位，积极做优学校特色，努力做强教育品牌，走内涵发展道路，办人民满意教育。
　　我深信，有各级领导的亲切关怀，有社会各界的鼎力相助，有广大家长的充分理解，有历届校友的大力支持，更有全体师生员工的共同努力，栟中的明天会更美好！
