Lanyu High School

Lanyu High School was founded in 1969 as Lanyu Junior High School, serving the children of Orchid Island — home to the Tao (also known as Yami) people, Taiwan's only Austronesian island-dwelling Indigenous community, culturally and linguistically distinct from Taiwan's other fifteen recognized Indigenous peoples. In 1997 the school was restructured into a "complete school" (完全中學), adding a senior high division so that Tao students could complete secondary education without leaving the island. As of 2024 it enrolls roughly 77 students across six classes in junior high and about 38 students across three classes in a comprehensive senior-high track. Since 2018 the school has been transitioning into Taiwan's first fully-integrated junior-and-senior-high Tao Indigenous experimental education program, with full implementation from 2020 — meaning Tao language, ocean-canoe and flying-fish traditions, and land-based culture are now woven into the curriculum across all six grades, from age twelve through eighteen.

蘭嶼高中前身為創立於民國58年（1969年）的蘭嶼國中，服務蘭嶼島上的達悟族（雅美族）學子——達悟族是台灣唯一的南島語系離島原住民族，文化與語言皆與台灣其他十五族原住民族截然不同。民國86年（1997年），學校改制為橫跨國中與高中部的「完全中學」，讓達悟族學生無需離島即可完成中等教育。截至2024年，國中部約有6班77名學生，高中部（綜合高中）約有3班38名學生。自2018年起，學校逐步轉型為台灣第一所國中部與高中部完整整合的達悟族實驗教育學校，並於2020年全面實施——達悟族語、拼板舟與飛魚文化、土地倫理等內容，如今貫穿六個年級、十二歲到十八歲學生的完整課程。
