At the heart of the pilgrimage town.
Dajia Junior High School opened in 1968 in the heart of old Dajia town, near the district's historic Mazu-temple core. Since then it has added an art-focused class in 1989, a gifted-education class in 2005, and a sports class in 2012, broadening its academic and athletic offerings. The school has also run a "long-green academy" continuing-education program for adult learners since 1986.
