About · 學校簡介

Built in phases to meet a growing need.

Yangming Elementary School was established in 1991, with its first phase of construction completed on December 8 of that year. Opening the school meant redrawing catchment boundaries — it absorbed students from both Zhengxing Elementary and Dongguang Elementary — and a final construction phase followed in 1997. Today the school enrolls approximately 2,068 students across 74 to 76 classes, making it one of the largest elementary schools anywhere in the Kaohsiung area. Like its junior-high namesake nearby, it likely takes its name from the Ming-dynasty philosopher Wang Yangming.

陽明國小創立於民國80年(1991年),第一期工程於同年12月8日完工。設校過程中重新劃分學區,吸收了部分原屬正興國小與東光國小學區的學生,最後一期工程則於1997年完成。目前全校約有2,068名學生、74至76個班級,是高雄地區規模最大的國小之一。與鄰近的陽明國中同名,校名很可能同樣源自明代哲學家王陽明。
