A small school reaching for big tech and global horizons.
Pinglin Elementary is a small school of about 329 students across 16 classes, one of several elementary schools scattered across Dalin Township's farming villages outside the old sugar-town core. It is known for two signature initiatives: "Tech Pinglin," which brings AI curriculum and VR-based teaching into the classroom, and "International Pinglin," which builds English proficiency through ICRT radio programs and cloud-based learning resources. The school also fields an unusually wide range of competitive teams, from taekwondo and soft tennis to taiko drumming and violin.
