Born from earthquake recovery.
Chelongpu Elementary School was established between 2000 and 2003, with its first students enrolling in 2001. It was created partly to relocate students from Guanglong Elementary School after that school suffered damage in the 921 earthquake, and was originally conceived as an experimental early-childhood and elementary demonstration school. Like Guanglong, its name references the Chelungpu Fault, the geological feature responsible for the 1999 earthquake.
車籠埔國小於民國89年至92年間（2000年至2003年）陸續設立，於民國90年（2001年）招收首屆學生。設校部分原因是為安置921地震後受損的光隆國小學生，最初的構想是作為實驗性質的幼兒與國小示範學校。與光隆國小相同，校名同樣取自造成921大地震的車籠埔斷層。

Sharing a name with the fault line.
Chelongpu Elementary shares its name — and its earthquake-recovery origins — with Guanglong Elementary, both referencing the Chelungpu Fault that ruptured in the devastating 921 earthquake. See the Taichung county page for more on the region.
