Carrying on a century of memories.
Xikou Elementary was founded on August 6, 1902, during the late Qing-to-Japanese colonial transition, making it more than 120 years old — the oldest school in the township. Its site tagline, "carrying on a century of memories," reflects that long history. The school's signature curriculum, "the Magic Book Program," is built around rice cultivation and organic farming, and links its content to the local Beiji Temple and its traditional architecture. Students take part actively in reading promotion, calligraphy, folk sports, and Mother Language Day broadcasting competitions, under current principal Fang Cheng-yi, who took office in August 2024.
