From a girls' school to a coeducational campus.
Chongqing Junior High was founded on August 1, 1969, under founding principal He Wenqin as "Taipei Municipal Chongqing Girls' Junior High School," initially borrowing classrooms at Bei'an Girls' High School in Dazhi before moving to its current Dunhuang Road site. The school became coeducational and was renamed "Taipei Municipal Chongqing Junior High School" in July 1991. It has had at least nine principals through 2020, reflecting more than five decades of continuous operation in Datong District.
重慶國中於民國58年（1969年）8月1日創校，首任校長為何文欽，初名「臺北市立重慶女子國民中學」，最初借用大直北安女中教室上課，後遷至現今敦煌路校址。民國80年（1991年）7月改制為男女合校，並更名為「臺北市立重慶國民中學」。截至民國109年（2020年）已歷經至少九任校長，見證五十餘年來大同區教育的延續。

Part of Taipei's oldest district.
Chongqing Junior High sits within Datong District, Taipei's oldest settled area, though no distinct historical tie between the campus itself and specific nearby landmarks has been documented. The district remains closely identified with the historic Dadaocheng old street, its Qing-era tea-export trade, and landmarks such as the Confucius Temple and Bao'an Temple in nearby Dalongdong.
