From a number to a name with meaning.
Chonglun Junior High opened in 1961 as "Taichung Municipal 4th Junior High," one of the city's original postwar junior highs identified simply by number. It was renamed Chonglun — meaning roughly "upholding ethics" — in 1971, honoring Confucian values as South District's population grew. Now more than 60 years old, the school runs a sports-focused academic track alongside robotics and technology-competition programs.
崇倫國民中學於民國50年（1961年）創立，原名「臺中市立第四國民中學」，是台中市戰後最早期以數字編號命名的國中之一。學校於1971年更名為「崇倫」，取「崇尚倫理」之意，呼應南區人口成長時期對儒家倫理價值的重視。建校逾60年的今天，學校設有體育重點班，並發展機器人與科技競賽課程。
